[Fixed for V0.39] Chaos doesn't teleport

Post by Lunever »

While I've never actually seen Chaos teleoport, I also never heard him do it. Now that attack modes can be assigned individual sounds and graphics I suggest giving his teleport spell a blue haze and teleport sound (I think at least the latter had been in FTL).
Parting is all we know from Heaven, and all we need of hell.

The teleport attack method already has the "buzz" sound associated with it - you can see that just by looking in the editor!

He will only teleport if you are beside him, because other wise he can move unimpeded - hence why you have never head him

Sorry for asking for a sound that is already implementedd. I still suggest of giving him a haze when casting teleport.

I recently trained against Chaos for a couple of hours until I noticed that there is a new invincible flag, and in during these hours Chaos never teleported even a single time. So what conditions exactly do Chaos' AI cause to teleport?

That wasn't part of the original game so I won't add it to the default Chaos as used in the DM dungeons.

However, it can be done using the existing mechanics, so the feature can be added to custom dungeons if you want it.

Having the teleport attack method assigned to him!

(In V0.38, possibly earlier, somehow it got lost as so he doesn't have it - it's back again in V0.39).

I've only noticed him teleport after using Flux Cage against him.
