Help With Upgrades

Jaml

<div class="IPBDescription">What keys must i use</div> Hello im new to ns and find its a cool mod. But i dont seem to find out how to get upgrades like carpace or regeneration. What keys must i press to get that stuff or how does it work in general. I looked into the manual that coes with the game but that seems just to be the story and some general info. Is there some place where the keys are described?

Right click, go to the UPGRADES button, then you will see SENSORY CHAMBER, DEFENSE CHAMBER, and MOVEMENT CHAMBER. Move to one of those buttons, and a branched list of powerups that are made by that chamber will appear. If they show a cost beside them (they all cost 2,) then you can get them.

You need that type of chmaber to be somewhere on the map before you can get a powerup that comes from it. For instance, for carapace, you need 1 or more defense chambers to be built by someone on your team. If you have 2 or 3 chambers, they will give you greater protection than just 1 chmaber. (But 3 is the max.)

A gorge can build these structures by clicking on the buttons that say DEFENSE CHAMBER, etc, and letting go of the mouse key.

Only one structure can be built per hive. The order in which you build them varies from game to game. It's whichever one a gorge decides to build first.

Hope this helps.

just to clarify for the new people who might come across this thread:

When we say one chamber per hive, we mean one type. So if you have one hive and build defense chambers first, you can only build defense chambers and so on.

To expand on Neo's post:

If you go Gorge don't start bulding sensory or movement chambers on your first hive. Yes they give nice upgrades, but it also means you won't be able to build defence chambers untill you build another hive. Defence chambers not only give you the chance to upgrade abilities, but they HEAL anything, building or player, standing next to it.
If you build any chamber but defence at the 1st hive, you'll have blistered ears in no time <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

my personal favorites:

Defence: Carapace for Skulks & Regen for Fades

Movement: Celerity for Skulks & Adrenaline for Fades

Sensory: Cloaking for Skulks & scent of fear for fades
