I checked the code. That's a feature 8-)

Code: Select all

Health=300.0
HealthMax=450.0
You can steal health from other vehicles to get more health than you start with.
Wait so it's vampire too?

Yes. Its a Vampire. We should make that its name it sounds scarier than LinkFlyer. lol.

Right now its on two maps, Torlan-LinkFlyer test (Torlan with just a linkflyer added) and Aliens2.
I'll get around to adding it to the usual randomizers. I think it does alright, its very powerful close up, can't do much against vehicles far away, and doesn't move super fast.

Also the Odin 2.0 health is the same way, starts off lower and can go higher as the 2nd AND 3rd Seats are like second seat on the Wraith (links, and drains/heals).

If it's not a pain, I'd change the color scheme. Right now looks pretty similar to the bio raptor. Maybe match the link tank with the grass green and yellow? It's mainly the wings that are confusing.

I admit I grabbed it and was disappointed it was the venom, heh.

It needs a real name too.

I don't think they are that much alike:
Link is on the left, Venom on the right.

Someone suggested calling it the Vampire, I like that. Other suggestions:

Harpy - (mythical flying creature, name means "snatcher")

Caladrius - mythical bird that kills and heals, also referred to as the Harbinger of Hope or Despair (my fav)

Yeah, I wasn't very creative on the name ... it links, it flys ... Maybe get a few more suggestions and we could have a quick vote/poll, I would do the poll thing it if knew how.

I can change its wing color and scheme to anything desired. Will try to follow link tank and link badger scheme a bit more, just went little too crazy with color options ... was my first attempt :)

FFS, I kinda hate all the weird names myself. For example, I never say Arbalest, it's the "Deemer tank" or "Missile tank", no confusion for me or anyone there. An Aegis is a "Shield tank". But if you must name it something that is not obvious, pa-lease put the name "Link" in there somewhere. I'll call it the "Link Flyer" and everybody will know exactly what I'm talking about.
