Cool, tell us when you're done and we'll gladly include the whole thing in the mod.ThaneWulfgharn said:NightHawkreal said:I'm more interested - how to create such a difficult skeleton? Especially - the third leg.

Of course, all this is heresy, except that you say.
Droideka
Not with skeletons.With Scene Props.The "Real" droideka body will be an invisible thing. What will appear ingame will be a conglomeration of Scene Props and a special inventory icon for inventory.Since the "Real" armor will be invisible,the player will be killed when the main Scene Prop will be destroyed.There are 4 types of Scene props:
Droideka Body(Main Part,Destructible)
Droideka Forearms(Both sides,Indestructible)
Droideka Blasers(Both sides,Indestructible)
Droideka Legs(1 of this per droideka,indestructible)
Droideka Shield(1 of this per droideka,destructible)
Now:
Droideka Body is "static",moves with the player and destructible.Set HPs yourself.
Droideka Forearms move with the player and,when firing,rotate according to the X axis(at least in Wings 3D).
Droideka Blasters move with the player moves and,when firing,move according the Z axis(at least in Wings 3D).
Droideka Legs rotate when the player moves and move with him. According to Y axis(in Wings 3D). They rotate once left and once right.

Rigadoon said:What about battle specific factions? For example, a faction called Galactic Republic (Kashyyyk) would have Clone Scouts, Wookies, and Aleena Scouts in addition to the normal soldiers. A CIS (Jabiim) faction would allow spawning as a Nimbus Commando. Ice planet factions would have cold assault battle droids and clones. I think this would be a good way of introducing more units but not having factions with a mish-mash of units that shouldn't ever be seen together.

I would definately like to see this to have some more variation. Might be too hard to implement it though because of models needed.
