<div class="IPBDescription">Helping the Helpers Help You</div>With recent talks of Pheromones, which are designed to aid the Alien Commander in designating important locations for strategic reasons, I thought that the loveable field medic & engineer could use a similar ability as well.
Imagine a 5th weapon slot, one that allows the Gorge to exhale a small cloud in front of him. When he does, he is shown a contextual menu similar to the one in Natural Selection, where you can choose options by moving your cursor. Once an option is selected, the cloud will "activate" and show a message to all Kharaa.
In this menu, the Gorge can choose various visual aids for Kharaa players and Alien Commander to see. As the Khamm is the eye in the sky, the Gorge can be the eye on the ground.
Some options in mind:
1) Grow Structure Here
2) Healer Here
3) Spread Infestation Here
4) Threat Nearby
#2 and 4 could probably be automatically generated as well, when a damaged Kharaa player is near a Gorge (but behind a wall), and when the Gorge is under attack.
Would this be a helpful addition?
