I have some mutator ideas here. Any suggestions or comments?
1. Minor deployables mutator - makes forcefields cost less energy so they could be more widely used (like in UTXMP); gives Rangers a deployable (like those CPB guys tried to do, but the Raptor deployable is waaaaay too good): the Proximity Sensor. It is fully usable even right now, but it could be made more useful and the real static mesh will be used. The sound will be more noticeable and maybe it could even display enemies on the radar map.
Have some Replicator ideas too - it's a deployable for techs that allow you to register an artifact even if you don't have enough energy - yet it takes a long time and you are very vulnerable then, and also it uses up much energy. It has some fixing sounds too, not sure what they're for - maybe the replicator can break? Or maybe it fixes something? Like a portable energy station? Leo, any info on this? This has no code so it might take longer, yet suggestions are welcome
2. Maybe the EAX support can be done through a mutator. But not sure yet.
3. Enhanced Artifact Powers mutator - it wouldn't give extra points for that, and also random arties would spawn at nodes.
4. More music and an updated music list for the music mutator.
5. A full announcer that can use the announcements such as MONSTER KILL! and VEHICULAR MANSLAUGHTER!
Probably forgot something... Ah well.
