My UnMancubus foe started exactly with such idea: some rail attacks which are rarely seen today, and also they're here because I needed 'em for my project Gore. Concerning the unfitting blasters, I think I could agree with you, but it seems that people like as it is now.

[PREVIEW] [DOWNLOAD]")* I agree that 3 projectiles is more than "necessary" for an otherwise straightforward monster like this, but I don't think they really hurt the quality of the monster with their inclusion. If I had to suggest one for removal, I'd say the traditional Fatso fireballs; they're the least unique attack. I would suggest keeping the rail attack due to its highly customized appearance, even if it's functionally straightforward. However, one thing that I realized is that since the rail attack has limited range, then perhaps his AI should have a range check to keep him from trying to use his rail attack when he's too far away for it to hit--in that case, he'd give preference to his projectile attack(s). (Maybe if he's within 800 units or so [80% of the rail attack's range], he could choose between rail or fireballs; if he's further than 800 units, he could do fireballs or mace. If you get rid of the fireballs altogether, then he'd do rail or mace at close range, and just mace if he's further away.) Warning: Spoiler! I don't think "UnMakerbus" rolls off the tongue real well. A "bus" is a type of vehicle, so putting a complete word or phrase like "UnMaker" in front of it brings to mind the image of a vehicle with a gun. ![:P](https://www.realm667.com/tongue.gif ":P") I think it would be best if the name specifically kept the "ubus" portion of "Mancubus" intact in order to keep that association with the existing monster. (No, I don't have any better examples than I did before right now, but I'll see if I think of anything.)

Handling it the other way is counter-productive. I would normally agree, but since it's a heavily stylized railgun attack with modified properties, I don't see why it can't be used as a closer-range attack. The idea of using it for sniping is more tactically conventional, yes, but that's also why I find it less interesting in this case than the idea of using it as a limited-range "beam" weapon. Also, I kind of like "Haedexubus" since it sounds reminiscent of both the Hectebus and the Daedabus (the latter of which was removed from the repo, unfortunately); it almost makes it sound like there's a naming hierarchy. I don't have a clue what (if anything) "Haedexubus" means, though; I hope it's nothing I'd be embarrassed to endorse. ![:3](https://www.realm667.com/smile3.gif ":3") Last edit: 11 years 3 months ago by MagicWazard.
