Author Topic: A decent spider bot mod.  (Read 1501 times)

I'm looking for like a decent spider mod. I understand it may be hard for spiders to crawl around on bricks and ceilings. So we don't need anything complicated  like that unless someone can do it.

I've seen the left 4 block zombies and one of the zombies could strangle you with some tongue like thing, is that possible with webs instead?


Also the spiders need to not only be scary but to sound scary with creepy insect like noises and jump at you. Maybe even creepy walking sounds.

As for how the spiders look, I'm thinking a more lego style approach but with a blocky feel. So basically like the default horse in which the legs don't move but they wobble, this would make animations easier.









Also maybe spiders that look like they were made out of bricks.

Don't think the walking-on-walls would be hard, at least for regular bricks.

If not.

What about a spider that spawns on the ceiling but it looks like it's dropping down from a web?

Maybe even a spider playertype could be a thing.

That would be cool.
Like, an item that lets you place spiders on the ceiling, so if someone walks into them they get 5 damage, and a spider web covers their screen for 10 seconds.

That's pretty cool.

I think this should be possible to some extent. Dropping down with web is possible at the very least.

This should be physically possible, but getting the animations to look right would be a nightmare.
If anything, we could implement wall-climbing that looks similar to how the minecraft spiders work

Yeah should be doable

I'm somewhat partial to the single-piece spiders, and I've been wanting to make little lego spider bots for quite awhile now actually.
The brick-built spiders would be pretty cool to see, still. But I don't know if/when I'd bother to make them


Just a disclaimer, I don't think I'll have time to work on anything related to this any time soon, but hopefully someday I'll be able to get to it.

Well if you decide to work on them let me know.

Personally I like the lego spiders the best, much more simple.
