New Enemies (Vanilla+)


New Nauvis enemies in the vanilla style. Flyers: flying biters in four evolution tiers, with their own nest. They cross walls and water, only anti-air turrets can hit them in the air, and they land to fight on the ground.

g Does this support other mods that have fliers and anti air guns too?

just curious.

Partly, it depends on how the other mod is made. My flyers in the air use the "air-unit" target type: any turret, from any mod, with "air-unit" (or "flying-robot") in its attack_target_mask can shoot them while they fly; the rest can only hit them once they land. Flyers from other mods aren't touched by mine: my anti-air turrets will target "air-unit", so they'll work with other mods' flyers that use that same type. If you have a specific mod in mind, tell me which one and I'll check how its flyers and turrets are set up.

Yes, at least the turrets. The Vierling and the Phalanx only target things with the "air-unit" trigger target type, which is exactly what my flyers use while they fly, so they'll shoot them in the air (and the flyer they hit will fly to them to attack). The Wirbelwind is a vehicle, so I can't confirm it without testing; I'll check it when I can. Thanks for pointing them out!
