Gorge Dry Heave

After watching the latest Hydra video and seeing the gorge vomit it up, I began wondering what the gorge does when it doesn't have the resources available to vomit up a structure. If it does nothing, perhaps consider tossing in a quick dry heave sound and animation as a visual/audio indicator of not having enough resources. Would be cute, if nothing else...

    Gorge: hrrgg *cough* grrrk *cough, Someone bring me a glass of water.

    No but seriously neat idea, much rather have that than a "Not enough resources" text popping up in ma face.

    Instead of coughing and gurgling, how about farting? :D

    I was thinking it would be a good idea to add particle effects to the gorge vomit animation, dry or otherwise.

    Besides, we've got the particle editor thingy and LUA, adding it in ourselves shouldn't be too difficult.

    I like both ideas.
    It's an audio visual cue for marines to kill that thing before it can actually place something dangerous.

    Agreed, I'd rather have a dry heave then a "You need more vespene gas" text/audio queue from the hive pop up.

    That would be epic.

    Also do the effect when the gorge is out of energy and tries to spit or heal spray...

    Gorge Rush!!!
