Drill Water Racing scuba diving lantern and U-boote

Out of boredom I made some mods to the Drill, Lantern and War Boat.

• The Drill makes you go faster underwater and has a slight glide effect on the air based on its heat.
• There's a U-Boot (U-Boat in english) that keeps you from drowning and submerges and stuff. Not much more. It fires ballista bolts now! It has a different hull and its easier to get inside when floating on water (from behind)
• And finally the lantern in your inventory works as an Now there's a proper Air Tank and lets you breath longer under water.
• There's a new Water Lantern for underwater explorations (its doesnt turn off in water and has a longer light radius)

Props to Rubixxcube for the Drill idea, it is awesome IMO lol.

UPDATED ON: 11/may/2013 please *delete* the old folder and redownload. Overwriting is NOT ENOUGH.
Download the mod from: http://tiny.cc/JacKDsMOD
You can test it on my server: JacKD's U-Boot War
Extract the files in the "Mods" folder on the main KAG installation folder.
Enjoy!

 

Sounds good, I'll test it.
/!\ You should have posted it in Game Modes.

 

I don't think it is a game mode as it stand right now, just a couple of mods, that's the reason I posted it here. If any moderator wishes to make the move, by all means do it :)

 

JacKD Would it be okay if I used your U-Boot script files and make custom sprites for submarine? I will credit you when I get to do it.

 

Sure, no problem. If you do manage to make the U-Boot sprites I could add them to the mod and give you credit, win-win :)

 

Alright I'm working on it now, I thought about doing a whole theme for it, like sea mines, submarines with torpedoes, I think it's all going to be difficult code wise but not so much with sprites. Heck I'll even do giant sea tortoise as long as someone is willing to do the coding.

 

Someone get this man his code!

 

BRING IT ON! xD I'd love a giant turtle... though I don't know how big it should be. Four war boats big? 12? BIGGER?!?!? It should fit in a map after all :p I imagine it like a super shark or something xD No idea how it could be code though, probably a shark mod or something...

Hey, this image shows the current "frame" of the UBoot hull, it's a bit different for the one ont he War Boat, so it would be better if you try to adjust to it so that people have an idea of where is the UBoot entrance.



I've updated the mod, the UBoot can fire ballista bolts now.

 

The giant turtle, well if characters in kag are 16px per 16px, so two tiles wide and two tiles tall, the turtle would be at least four tiles which is 32px per 16px tall I guess, big enough to mount it.

 

how do I craft the uboat the airtank and the underwater lantern I cant find out how. Also did I do it correctly by putting the JacKDsMOD inside the mod folder or were I suppose to put the base file into the mods folder?

 

Not sure if I understand you question. Can you rephrase it please?

Yes, that's the way it's installed.

 

if there is no way of crafting the U-boot, then can you spawn it? how do you spawn it? do you need to do !U-boot?

oh, and do you need to open the 7z file INSIDE the mod folder? and do you delete the 7z file after?

 

it gets me an error: unable to read scripts (when i enter sandbox or somhething like this)

 

It's too old. No more compatible.

 

oh, ok. thx
does the fun servers have special mods? i've been looking for shotguns a long ago.

 

Fun servers are modded by principally Diprog and me. Wizard mod is from norill.
If you want to check more infos about license and stuff... https://forum.kag2d.com/social-forums/fun-servers.871/

 

the reavy knights are just like the normal ones? and the bomber really works?

 

It's not really the place to talk of it here.
But heavy knights are more powerful that knights but much heavier.
And yes the bomber works, it's hidden in KAG files.

 

i mean, do they drop bombs?
