[CANCELLED] Lootbug Company - The ability to play as a lootbug after you die

[compact moth]

If you are interested in taking on the bounty please direct message me. I've already paid out 1 bounty to @rich shell for Lethal Rock and Stone

I'd like a mod that lets players spawn as a lootbug after they die. I have a short list of negotiable requirements I'd like to see

Only available after death

Switching to a lootbug will have you randomly spawn somewhere in the facility or at a random vent

Able to hear the living, but can not talk with the living, the dead, or other lootbugs

𝐃𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 (𝐬𝐞𝐦𝐢 𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡?) 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠

Can't exit the facility

Can pick up and drop loot

If you die as a loot bug you go back to being a ghost

You can only attack when a player has stolen from your stash

open source (eg MIT license)```


-----

These are nice to haves but are not necessary 

```Third person?

Stealing from another hoarding bug's pile will cause it to agro on you?

Other hoarding bugs won't see loot you pick up? This is to prevent them from stealing from you```

I like this idea a lot cus it almost gives you a second chance to help loot

you could like bring it to the main entrance for your teammates that are still alive

[compact moth]

You can also roleplay as a regular hoarder bug. That is why I'd want it so you can only attack after your loot has been "stolen"

The entire idea was inspired by a friend saying she wishes she could host just so on death could play as a lootbug via control company. But sadly her internet is shit.

If this happens it'll be a huge surprise to her

thats cute

[glossy folio]

I need this mod to be a reality so, so badly

Ever since I tried out Lethal Control I've always thought it would be awesome for teammates to get a second chance to help or mess with the team

[narrow kindle]

control company already does this

sorta

no random spawning or yipee button, but they said they gonna add a yipee button

[compact moth]

Yes and that is host only

[narrow kindle]

did you say it had to be not host only? also i dont know how comfortable id be knowing every lootbug is possibly a possesed demon (because my friends aint angels T_T)

[narrow kindle]

oh come on dont hit me with the 🙄.

but

i have no buts lol

its a good mod idea

[glossy folio]

I wonder if the same person that made control company can find a way to make this mod too

If they're not too busy

Idk if controlling monsters is possible for clients though

[narrow kindle]

99 percent sure its impossible

[rich shell]

im sure its possible but just hard to implement

[narrow kindle]

enemies are rooted to the hosts server i thought

which is why controlcompany only works as host

[rich shell]

obviously its more complicated to do as a client, as you need to constantly sync movement with host, which in turn should sync it back with everyone else

its pretty invasive

[$100 USD Bounty] Lootbug Company - The ability to play as a lootbug after you die

Upped the bounty

[narrow kindle]

you should probably add "doesnt have to be host" so people know

i didnt see that anywhere

also how would there be a dedicated yippee button if thats a different mod? or would it just be a chatter button

[iron cloak]

i feel like you should be able to tell that it doesn't have to be host cus of the way they worded it so that anyone can become a lootbug after death

[fresh pagoda]

It spiders and thumpers can still kill you

[glossy folio]

Someone made a mod that makes you yippee with a key press

[narrow kindle]

yeh, still not client side

[glossy folio]

Sad
