Yeah, so.

For all of those folks who want to see the zombies in action, I'm going to unleash them into the preview grid.

Also, I've cut down the minimum velocity neccesary to kill them... it's 25 now, well below linden popgun standards.

This is partly an attempt to have some fun, and partly an attempt to get more people go to onto the preview and help the lindens out. Plus, zombies are an excellent stress test.

Have fun!

LF

Ah Lordfly, I believe your zombies have found their place in the world... a virtual world, but a world nonetheless!

that looked like fun Goshua, great pics! lol

I don't own a gun, so I just out ran then once. The other time I clicked EDIT on one, then clicked and dragged over the whole bunch of them and hit delete. It was never a problem for me. It was fun to have the attention

Thanks Lordfly!

Ok, Lordfly.

It's a nice concept, it really is, but I can see why people were pissed about the zombies. Shooting them simply does NOT work. I just spent five minutes shooting both a horde of zombies, and one lone one I managed to pull off of the horde with my little popgun, and all it did was twitch and keep on coming.

Fallen Faith guns with push and bullet spreading on worked fine for me.

Whee!! Zombie fun

In the interest of public safety, and Zombie protection, Seburos in 1.5.6 preview are available for just ONE DOLLA

All your zombie needs, at Bonifacio (196, 107)

PS. LF, lots of fun

I'm glad to see you're in good spirits over the zombie thing again.

Edit: PPS.
LF, it seems the first wave of Seburo-equipped SLers was too much for the zombies. We can't find any more zombies to hunt. We're wandering around bemoaning, "why oh why did we kill the last one?"

Time to rez more?

There're no more zombies in Preview.

And I wanted to shoot stuff too. So I just shot some random dude.

He started it. I swear!

Yay.

I've edited them again for the preview and re-unleashed them... this time they don't stop reproducing.

Have fun.

Lordfly did you make some major changes to the zombies or do they not allow crybabies in preview?

How about a non-killable prim that, say, every 10 minutes or so births a new zombie? These guys are WAY too zealous in thier zombie hunting. We run out too fast!

Wellll.. my friend and I left a handful alive in Bonifacio just now. That was so great tho! LOL. (Especially for someone who had to blow the dust off his 'weapons' folder. hehe) For added fun, I was using a weapon that would kill off one or two in the swarm and send the rest sailing. Nothing like seeing green zombie cubes emerging from the flame and smoke that was their comrades. Thanks again LF.

My automatic zombie-hunter did pretty well. It was coded to always leave a breeding pair behind.

Just a note: Don't stop and tweak the code on your gun unless you're ready for this:

That must really suck. Did someone say spreading bullets?
