A Mod Idea (Not A Request), The Shambler.

[SVGK]

you know the official don't starve mod made by Clay?, The Screecher?, you know the creepy "lights turning red" and the monsters face popping up on the screen for a split second thing?, as well as the shambler itself?.

 

well i have an idea, a mod that adds the Shambler, which is the creature in the mod, with redded lighting, face popping up on the screen and all that extra jazz that comes when you anger it, he would behave and look exactly the same as in the mod, and would spawn at night in the dark levels of light where you would get eaten by a grue and would despawn during the day at the very instant it gets brighter.

 

Please note that this is not a request, i want a mod for it certainly, thus why i made this thread, but i will probably try make it myself if nobody else does, it looks to be easy, though the sound effects and all that extra stuff confuse me really badly.

Well you could say all the assets are there, and you see examples of how they're hooked up. So it might be not that much work. I only took a casual look at the Screecher code though so far. So I can't garantuee anything  ; )  Good luck with it, I'll look forward to it  ^^

That was what i was going to do, but the extra stuff appears to rely on other parts of the mod, like the torch and map positions such, and i don't have a clue how i will handle the despawning and spawning based on the time either.

 

But i'll figure it out.... somehow....

 

I am learning C Sharp coding, so i know coding stuff a bit, problem though is also that they don't seem to comment much of their code, so a lot of it is guesswork on what it all does (shamblermodes:SetKind ("killer"), what da fuq?), i can only assume that this part is for the ending with lots of crawling guys....
