(Dark told me to send images at some point, so I doodled some ideas- not amazing quality due to being sketches)

No military base is complete without a radioactive outhouse. KEK

In no particular order:

  • Tarp for covering buildings to signify quarantine status
  • Possible re-skin for the CERC vehicle yard, since the other one looks goofy to me
  • Small vehicle-repair-station for FOB's
  • Example of modular tunnels connecting to buildings
  • Tables, one including a radio
  • Medical Tent remodel
  • American Flag, Could use other flag textures
  • Small tower with or without an armed soldier inside to make civilian areas look more watched
  • Stationary truck prop
  • Gas can prop
  • Fuel / Chemical canister prop
  • Medical Curtains
  • Army-Colored civilian hold retexture
  • Large "Your text here" billboard
  • Water Tower for distributing uninfected water supplies to civilians
  • Medical Stretcher
  • Machine Gun sandbag-bunker as a replacement for machine gun turrets or a static prop
  • Guard-Post + Swinging barrier
  • Spotlight that turns/shines into the sky
  • Alarm siren that sits on top of a pole
  • Tall mounted floodlights
  • Helmet/Firearm props
  • HESCO Elevated firing position
  • Security Camera singular / multiple
  • Bodybag storage area
  • Radio Tower
  • Hazardous Chemical storage tank
  • Multipurpose CERC Trailer-Building
  • Various Pallets of civilian goods for distributing or storing military goods
  • Small generator for outposts, more building variety
  • Anti-Tank obstacle
  • Hazard-Tape
  • Wooden road barrier
  • CERC Shipping containers

Save this thread @marsh cosmos and remind me when we get to the middle-end of Doctrine/CERC stuff

Bro ima go back to the game for hundreds of hours if all that is added

#

@halcyon arrow Reminder since it's been around 4 months, no pressure to implement these

#

Just wanted to refresh the memory

Barricades looking dope

It would be great if all this decor was functional, radio stations would transmit information to civilians about current temporary accommodation and evacuation points, queues would be created at checkpoints, so to speak, it would set the routes for civilians

#

If we toss all these in they will confuse the infected AI as well

#

So im waiting till we do some tweaks behind the scenes to make them better at target assignment as well

#

They need almost a system that "saves" this but they only attack what they need for a primary objective

#

I.E if its blocking their path else they will ignore it

#

save it for coming back later to destory

#

But it would take into consideration their "gameplay" importance

#

So some exceptions can be made

#

It could end up in the AI card but they are modeled and in a holding pattern way before then

#

Since thats when we are going to tweak the AI director/squad system for Chelsey/Infected

#

Right now the Modelers are finishing up some last minute Doctrine stuff on the tree that was added last minute. Then we are going to see if Epic fixed the 5.5 HLOD issue if not they will stall for a month or so doing misc objects like this

#

Rest assured i have not forgotten this thread and i wont. Im just waiting for the best time to put it in

Yea I thought it was kinda funny how the infected would target traffic cones, is imagine they wouldn’t notice anything unless it was blocking their path

If there's already a thread for this, why was it posted in here?

halcyon arrow
#

@analog quest Yeah @marsh cosmos is the master ofmisc props keep it on her master thread

marsh cosmos
#

I mean this /is/ on the master thread, I was just confused since he made a seperate thread for it and then posted this here after the fact

#

lol

halcyon arrow
#

Yeah that’s what I meant sorry

analog quest
#

Woops. I thought I seen a recent post to add misc stuff to this thread. Since I already had a post from years ago I figured id add it here as well. Probably just mis understood, I thought this would consolidate. 🥲

I appreciate the excitement

i thought i posted it in this thread, evidentely not. must've been some other thread
Since it's kind of a "core thread" for all things base-building due to Terminal's efforts, i'll just put it here:
it would be nice to have a single, small "pedestrian gate" for walls. Where only people can pass through.
Something like 1/3rd of this on the picture

It would be cool to have more of a “supply” function for those larger structures or allow the infantry engineers to build light stuff and the more semi permanent structures with a vehicle.

i think i'll put a message in here to bump it and make it relevant/not too far to be forgotten (i understand it's currently about basic systems rebuilding 1st)

I'll add my 2 cents and summarise/consolidate a lot of things from other users for readability:

  • Allow troops to stand on guard tower/raised position assets, allowing use of them without making the guard towers themselves obscelete, as stationing troops like this would still use up pop cap

  • Allow Garage/Warehouse/Tent assets to fulfil the purpose of the facility they represent. E.g. Garage repairs vehicles, warehouse gives ammo/supply, fuel depot/tank gives fuel, tent can do whatever the tent design suggests, be it heal units, give supplies, increase pop cap (maybe with a effectiveness reduction) etc.

  • Use radio stations/buildings to transmit information; either to allow view into fog of war, or as a requirement to see into fog of war outside radio range of CERC building/Commander Winters, or buff view range around units, or direct civillians - either by specifying dedicated evac routes, communication civilian orders, communicating martial law status, etc.

  • Semi permanent structures; seeing the additiontion of semi-permanent structures such as 'K Houses', or 'Portacabins' could add some nice alternative base designs, ideal for your main base or evac centres

  • Exterior defenses; it would be nice to see more options for external base defenses, such as additions to the HESCO range (including raised firing positions), taller Jersey walls, different gate types, such as personnel gates/doors and Guardposts with the swinging barrier, and lastly bunkers/entrenched positions to be usable as opposed to robotic unmanned sentries

  • AI tweaks; and finally, Dark acknowledged the necessity to revamp AI target prioritisation before implementing more misc assets, due to their propensity to annihilate mere traffic cones instead of going straight for the actual threat and their actual objective.
