Beta Release [Mutator] No Teleport

[TheMutant]

Small update

I have updated the mutator and finally created a workshop item for it: Workshop
Though I have to admit, that I have found no error. Monsters should not teleport. If you still notice that, please report it so I will take a deeper look.
But keep in mind, this mutator does only work for the default KF2 monsters, excluding custom ones.

Hey Mutant, would you consider increasing the max zed alive limit to compensate for the teleport? It would be lovely to have more than 32 zed alive at any given time since the default number don't make it feel much like a horde at all.

 

[TheMutant]

Hmm, that's not a feature I have consoidered. I think Project One already delivers that and both mutators should be compatible with one another.

Mutant, please consider adding custom zeds. Vanilla servers don't really need this but the modded servers do and they most likely are using custom zeds. I tried it on my custom server and all the custom zeds spawned but held in place and didn't move.

Add your custom zeds to the code, add the controller for the custom class in the same way that Mutatnt is doing , then add the case and class for the custom zed to the mutator uc, rename it to avoid version conflicts and recompile see if that works for you.

Sadly, that's impossible. Some code parts are highly tied to the AI and there is no way to do that from outside. That means, I had to create my own version of each custom monster out there to deliver full functionailty as oldschool has pointed out. That's just not doable for me.
Furthermore, it sounds that the custom monsters are having issues themselves when they can't use the provided navigation system, or the maps are badly set up.

Hiya Mutant. TY for taking the time to post. I understand the issues. I can only speak for my server and in my case it is not a matter of bad maps or a nav system. As Old School stated probably the AI is missing for the custom zeds.

If you want to disable it without having to replace the zed classes just set bCanTeleportCloser to false in the controllers

TY Forrest...where is that switch located?

You'd need to change it via CheckReplacment since it's in the monster controller

 

[TheMutant]

Hey there, over the last two dasys I have pushed two new updates.
The new monster classes are now fully supported and the teleport feature now spans over all monsters incluging custom ones. The advanced mechanics, however, just apply to monsters that use the default AI.

 

[TheMutant]

I have released a new version 008 that brings support to the new monster classes and fixes a bug that caused some monsters to become "braindead".
