Snow ball rocks

Post by Noruas »

Ota style large hail or snow rock comets that can be dropped at the sky or an angle as a weapon projectile that's white, or blue, shiny too. its for anteer strait made by jools, but hes too nice to ask for a lua script for it or to ask anyone to make models but ice rocks should or even icicles should be easy to do... It would even be cool that if it does not hit a unit, you could have white rocks on the ground spam from these storms u could collect for metal. (a rocky ice storm his in the south ocean, rush towards it for metal!)

These may or may not be what you are looking for:
If you dislike the texture, you can replace with any image and it will tile seamlessly.

10 rocks, of various sizes (not all pictured) with luas and tdfs and a do whatever you want license.

It would be cool is ice meteors fell and did damage... but then also stayed there and could be harvested for metal and energy... that way they are bad but also sorta good.

All I remember is really really hating the meteor maps in OTA. There weren't nano towers back then. :(
