Alien grunt parasite classname?

Post by Svanrog »

What is the classname of the alien grunt's parasite bullets?
Will the relationships be fixed in 1.2 so the combines don't attack the alien grunt's parasites instead of the grunts? Right now I want to fix their relationship using a ai_relationship, but I need the classname of the parasites. Is it even possible?

Off topic:
Also, the alien grunts can't fight floor turrets, since they just stand there and shoot parasites at them, which is useless. Just for you to know.

About the turrets , they should act just like the combine_soldiers toward friendly turrets , a.k.a rushing and use their melee attack. [/suggestion]

The hornet's classname is simply "hornet". I'll try to fix up their relationships in 1.2, it's pretty messy right now though (they're classified as an alien grunt, so that's why things shoot at them as well). The turret thing would be fairly complicated, so don't expect to see it for a little while.

Sometimes when i make good npc's they end up attacking the hornets instead.

I just told you why. And "npc's" isn't proper grammar, the npc isn't posessing anything in that sentence.

Its not like a holdable weapon, he puts his arm up and it spawns hornets.

Alot of people seem to missuse the apostrophe in this clan...

Maybe you could use a npc_bullseye as described here:
