Lanceo90:

So Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is out. Should I add more content accordingly?

Yeeee

Pleased to report that this was included in the first merge review of 0.B experimental.

And it passed as a mod. If you go to get pizza, bring a good gun and plenty of skill/ammo.

I’ve been playing the 0.B release, I noticed it’s not in the mod list, and I haven’t seen it in game. Did it get dropped?

Khrysanth · 2014-12-02T20:38:45.000Z

It’s in the experimentals, not the 0.B stable release. I haven’t used it yet, but I’ve seen it on the mod list.

Yeah, it went in as soon as the freeze for 0.B dropped.

Oh, ok

There are wrong plurals for some animatronic animals. Must be “foxes” and “bunnies”.

Found out the hard way these guys aren’t balanced for early game. Any early melee weapon you can expect to make is useless, molotovs and spraycan flamethrowers also do little damage. Nail gun doesn’t penetrate them. takes walking them over 4 landmines to kill.

Yeah I’ll nerf them D:

I thought these were supposed to be normal-human-slayers per their source material (if they get within reach, you’re already dead). I used an L12 Defender and plenty of ammo when I was testing 'em.

I think perhaps zombie bears or police bots got a buff when I wasn’t looking. In that build of the game when zombie bears were spawning too much I had to kill them on a daily basis and I wasn’t gun totting. Think I had that in mind when I carried their stats over. I could be wrong though.

Their senses are a bit too good as well, wanted something that attacks you when you come in, but they currently bash the doors down and come at you in the streets.

This is also what I am the most concerned about, not the difficulty of killing the animatronic monsters. I don’t want to meet animatronic monsters on the street several blocks away from the nearest pizzeria.

Also, perhaps the spawn rate of the building could be tuned down a bit, too. I had quite a number of those run down pizzerias last game, and that’s just not very realistic.

One per overmap, max, seems about right. As for senses, I’d think deafness might be handy if you don’t want them leaving the building (lots of critters move based on sound); they could have fine NV if desired since they move around in the dark games OK.

Would it be possible to keep them contained in one spot?

Like you’d run by the pizzaria, and you’d keep seeing the robots chasing you up to the edge of the pizzaria terrain. Just staring you down.

I think it’s theoretically possible but the only way I’ve got would be an ugly id-dependent hack. IMO, not worth it.

How can I lower the spawn rate of the pizzeria? There are a lot of them, and life as day 1 survivor is tough, and they’re still tuff when you have 10 of them attacking you at the same time on day 19

The way it’s set up, should only be 4 per pizzeria, bit it’s 100% chance of it.

You’d open up the pizzeria json, the building file, and it’s near the bottom where it shows the spawn locations and chances of the animatronics.

I’ll work on the mod again soon, but I’m going to have to ask sooo many stupid/easy questions to do more lol

Catfoodbob · 2015-02-08T00:51:29.000Z

My only complaint about the animitronics is that all tronics have the exact same statistics, at least in mainstream version.
