========================

X-Com soldiers ruining your schemes for planetary conquest?

Insidiously small doorways thwarting your Cyberdiscs at every turn?

Well good sir, I have exactly what you need!

Sectoid in a Can!

This miracle product is guaranteed to work with just one application!*

Are they messing with your plan? You need Sectoid in a Can!

*Sectoid not included, may not actually facilitate world domination.

========================

The Secto-Suit unit is as its name implies a Sectoid inside a mechanized battlesuit or mech.

It features two large cannon arms and despite the bulky weaponry remains a 1x1 unit that can fit through doors.

I've previously tried to create a Sectoid Floater which was released in the "Sectoid and Mogeko unit pack" however the movement animation was a bit strange.

This is a version with much better movement that also features the a Floater like chest cybernetic implant.

[The Martian]

This bipedal robot artillery comes in three versions, two for X-COM: UFO Defense and one for X-COM: Terror From The Deep.





Admittedly it is a little goofy, but I think it turned out alright.


To make the lights flash on the sides of the unit it needs Yankes's script to animate armor placed in the unit's armors: section.
[y-script] Animated armor

Sprite Set Contains:
BigOb (x3), FloorOb (x3), Unit (x3)

Usage notes:
. drawingRoutine: 0
. deathFrames: 7 (It has an extended death animation)
. You will need to attach this script by Yankes to the unit's armor for it to animate correctly:
[y-script] Animated armor

Code: [Select]

# Animate Torso Script
    scripts:
      selectUnitSprite: |
        var int reg0;
        var int reg1;
        var int reg2;
        var int reg3;
        var int in0 sprite_index; #init `in0` with value from `sprite_index`
        var int in1 sprite_offset;
       
        if eq blit_part BODYPART_TORSO;
          set reg0 anim_frame;
          unit.getId reg1;
          add reg0 reg1;
          div reg0 4;
          mod reg0 2;
          offset reg0 8 272;

Here is another new unit, the "Sectoid Probe" (or "Aquatoid Probe").  (Please feel free to change the name to suit your style.)


This pack contains three images sets. 1 for X-COM: UFO Defense and 2 for X-COM: Terror From The Deep.




The unit animates when stationary and the sides strobe when moving, it also includes a small (1 frame) electrical discharge when it attacks.


To make this work correctly it requires a blank HandOb to be used when the unit is firing and it will also need Yankes's script to animate armor to be placed in the unit's armors: section or the unit will not display the additional torso animation frames.
[y-script] Animated armor

Sprite Set Contains:

Usage notes:

. An invisible two handed weapon is required to make the attack animation function. (Included in the .zip)
