I can't tell how big it is from those screenies... Oh, and does it wiggle, or is it always locked in that curve?

It is rather small, And it'd be cooler if it showed at least some visible signs of motion. And the bots still spawn by warping in??? I thought the Hive Queens spawned the other bots? In which case, wouldn't the others come out of the hive queen's docking bay? Odd...

Just remember that when you're firing missiles at that thing, they will target the object's center of rotation, which in the Leviathan's case, is outside of the ship itself, and will fly loops around an empty point in space (actually, if the missiles hit the center of rotations, they will detonate, although no damage will be done to the Leviathan). So if you're going to use missiles against it, be sure to either target the turrets, or fire from a location where the Leviathan is between its center of rotation and you.

It doesnt "wiggle" yet, but it will. Also, we'll obviously fix that centerpoint outside the body thing. Its actually due to the fact that we wanted to have it running around the inside of the ring of asteroids before we got the segmenting stuff working. Also, we'll be making the bots spawn from the queens, and the queens from the leviathan as it says in the wiki. Lots of other cool stuff on the way, too.

Wow, the Leviatian was practically black on my screen. I would have preferred that nice white color.

Hey, can that segmenting code be used for the boxes towed behind the Maurauder?

looks like a serco project miracolously going wrong...

although its a funny caterpillar :D
Jul 17, 2005 ctishman link
The Serco's projects don't so much 'go wrong' as 'escape'.

Nah... Serco projects used to "malfunction"... but remember one thing... the HIVE is UIT's fault.

How long did it take to bring that space-worm down? and how many peeps did you have attacking it?

hmm, i was on for about 2 hours and 2 leviathans were destroyed, so I guess an hour per strong hold.

We had, what, 10-15 in the sector at any given time, I don't really remember.

Killing the worm was a bit of a disappointment. I don't know about others, but when its health got low, I raced 2km out and waited or the Big Bang then... nothing, it just vanished lol

I have my gamma set quite high, which is probably why it looks more white than grey.
