Render: Pancaked Units

Jordan's Photo Jordan 24 Sep 2009

This is a visual enhancement for when a unit gets attacked and killed by a Pancake Crusader. The results are quite devastating:

This will be a bit of a tedious process, as I have to do it for every single unit in the game, but well worth it in the end. Here's a screenshot of the effect in-game:

Also, this means I can make other weapons which completely flatten units. I could have a demo trap replacement, which consists of a piano hanging from the sky, and when enemies come near it, it drops, crushing them. Or a giant 1 ton weight or other heavy object could fall from the sky.

^ This

The Thwomp idea is also a grand one (the original sound fx would of course be required), but it might impose on copyrights, which is a bugger. That notwithstanding, it's still a great idea.

There would be no questioning, just the klang of the pan against Mr. BM's head...turret. |8 The question(s) would follow upon Mr. BM waking.
