I'll start rigging it soon, meanwhile you guys could give me a list of animations here.
Leech
Re: Leech
Cool! The leech just needs the usual suspects:
Idle when active
Idle when inactive (no overmind; optional; could be a slower/less intense version of idle)
Pain
Dying (ideally 5s long as I plan this to be the maximum randomized blast delay for alien buildables)
Being dead (the usual one frame static anim; this will actually not be used when dying is 5s long but for now I'd like to be legacy-compliant)

Re: Leech
idle when inactive is not a usual suspect :) i'm glad i asked
Re: Leech
It's optional since we never had one before. However, since the leech doesn't actually do anything it's harder to visualize it being offline as for other buildables (barricade shrinks, human buildables turn out the small lights, etc.).

and could somebody copy what `Ishq said in chat please?
Re: Leech
<Ishq> Nice. Out of curiosity, could it be made so that other slurpy thingies start to contract while another slurpy thingy is going out
Ishq> Right now, it is contract, expand, pause, another slurpty thingy contracts, expands
<kharnov> slurpy poopy
<
<Ishq> it looks slightly unnatural
Ishq> If they happened partially in tandem
<
<`Ishq> It would look slightly cooler
Re: Leech
You are seeing penises everywhere gavlig don't you?
I like the idea but I think right now the contraction is a bit too intense, especially since you can see that only two tubes actually do something.

Re: Leech
