New Perk "Sentry Tech" aka Sentry and High Tech Weapons Specialist
- Thread starter Guardiannknight
- Start date
Tbh I don't see a reason why to make ScrnBalance version of this perk. It already can be used along with ScrnBalance perks, and I can't imagine any custom weapons you could use with it (GK already ported all possible turrets). There just won't be any difference between using SP version and Scrn version.
Poosh just answered about scrn.
As for weapon power. I will be adding that to the update. A 5% increase in weapon power per level. 5% at 0 lvl. Bots and turrets won't be included.
Decided on the speed. Movement speed will start at 25%,and go up 5% per level. That will help balance the perk, plus with the increase in weapon power will help.
EDIT:
Also, on the medic symbol on the M7A3, i have changed the perk correspondence, i think the icon is hard coded into the weapon.. Not for certain if it can be fixed. :/
Plus the other updates I listed a few posts back.

Thanks GK for this perk. Waiting for the next update. I have a request.
Can you change purchase value for USCM turret (from 1500 to 2000) & Medic sentry bot (from 1000 to 3000) for the next update?
They can easily be bought by off-perk players (spammable)

Already did that, that's one of the first things I change in the source code when I start editing it. When I tested the perk and saw the medic symbol, I was like... Well, I must have forgotten, but, I went back to the source and I had changed it. I haven't had that problem on any other weapon yet. I figured maybe it was hard coded to the weapon or something?
EDIT:
Nope... I had totally looked over it... "hand to face"... i had changed the EquipmentCategory...

I will have to look at the turret and bot. I know the medic bot, i had lowered it's price during testing the perk. I need to raise it back up. As for the USCM, i left it purely stock, on damage and price. The other bots and sentries I changed the health, damage and price. Just forgot to change back the medic bot, thank you for the reminder. I usually up the price on weapons if i increase damage or anything of that nature on them. That way the price helps reflect the difference in stock weapon and the perks weapon. I may increase the health and power on the USCM, and increase it's price some.
UPDATE: V105
Changes:
1. Fixed the price of the Tech Medic Bot, forgot to change it back during testing, price is a little higher than a standard bot, due to increase heal, health, and other stats.
2. Increase price of TechUSCM Sentry. Price reflects increase of damage and health compared to standard.
3.Adjusted TechPipeBomb some more, visuals only
4. Movement speed now starts at 5% at 0, and a 5% increase per perk lvl
5. Added extra damage to Tech firearms. 5% at lvl 0, and 5% per lvl up to lvl8.
6.Added new weapon, Flux's G36C Thank You Flux Enjoy
Edit: Do not use the G36C yet. Needs a few kinks worked out. Will update when the gun is updated and the problem is fixed.*

NOTICE
Do not use the G36C as of yet. It keeps firing if you hold down the trigger, even when you run out of bullets, it keeps firing until you let off. I will keep the gun part of the pack, but I'll remove it from the list of weapons on the main post. I'm sure Flux will get it fix pretty soon. When he fixes it, I will update the perk with the new files. So until then, I would not recommend using it to keep things balanced. It looks to be a sweet gun, just needs to get some kinks worked out. From what i could tell, I will probably raise the price on the gun and change the starting mag setting some. Currently starts with 11 clips with 30 bullets in each.

2. Added 4 weapons that Marco made, for the HalfLife Weapons Mod Thank you Marco for creating these weapons
3. Fixed prices on some of the new weapons

Also, FYI, working on two more perks Halted work on them when I found Marco's HL weapons So, spent the evening adding them to the perk and adding Flux's update for the G36C Will start working on the other perks again tomorrow some.

Already know about the sentry turret error, thank you for letting me know though. It's on the fix list. Main thing is it's functional and works
will fix it in future updates, I consider it a cosmetic fix. The machine pistol is actually pretty strong. Giving it more ammo would make it way over powered. The ammo increases as the perk increases.
Not for certain if the portal turret can be welded. I pulled the advanced Welder from the KFL mode source, and they had the portal turret in the KFL mod also. I'll list it on the list of things to try and work on and fix in future updates.
I will look at the shock rifle, i may give it more ammo. It is kinda low, but it does two forms of damage. The regular rifle bullet and also explosive damage.
As for the hl weapons. I will check on them on the discount... Didn't notice that. I may have left off the front extension off the names. Thank you for letting me know.
As for bait, will check that. I thought it was in a pretty good location. But, I look it over.
Don't know if there is much I can do with the blue gravity gun. It's 7000$ so, it's worth the damage it does. I haven't been able to test it very much however.
A scrn mod will be made when the perk becomes a stable version. I am not a fan of doing double work, when I would have to turn around and do it all over again.
I
As soon as the perk becomes stable(no longer updating), then I'll make a scrn version. Or if I have time on the weekend, I'll make one. But, I'm currently working on touching up this perk, and the Sniper perk I just released and I'm also working on another perk that I should be finished with by at least Saturday
As for the bots. You allowed to have one of each at once. Meaning you can have one medic, Doom sentry bot, and one portal turret and sentry turret at once. So you can have 4 bots/turrets at once. just can't be multiple of the same bot or turret
