Description
Have you ever wanted some wacky Nextbot zombies? Well this mod provides just that! with a pack of wacky zombie nextbots. Each nextbot has their own abilitys and effects, These nextbots are easily customizable with console commands. For example, you could customize their ability cooldowns or health. NPCs will react with these nextbots and attack them. NPCs will also be affected by the abilitys such as the stunner zombie's blinding light, Or the invisible zombie's cloaking device. The nextbots will attack NPCs and players. They will also ally with NPC zombies. For example, The healer zombie could heal a headcrab, But not an antlion. The nextbot zombies are affected by ai_disable and ai_ignoreplayers so you can prepare and watch NPC battles with them if you wish. This mod is also compatible with the NPC spawn platforms mod!



List of zombies in this pack


Blood zombie
This zombie will heal it self when it hurts an enemy. When this zombie reaches low health its attacks get quicker.


Explosive zombie
Has a basic melee attack. On death, It will explode dealing damage to nearby targets.

------- Missing from the pack???? -----
Has a basic melee attack. When an ally looses health he will heal the ally. The zombie will also heal the allys with the lowest health first. Has health regeneration.

Hulk zombie
Goes great with healer zombies! On hit, The target is thrown high into the air taking fall damage as well. This zombie has a lot of health.

This zombie has a basic melee attack and a good amount of health. When an ally nearby reaches low health, This zombie will zap that ally killing him instantly. When that happends, All nearby NPCs and players gain some health.

Psycho zombie
This zombie runs extemely fast. The attacks are quick killing enemys in seconds when these zombies are in groups.

Screamer zombie
Sorry headphone users lol! This zombie acts a bit like a banshee, It will scream very loud stunning NPCs and players.

Shadow zombie
The first nextbot zombie i created! This zombie will activate shadow mode. In shadow mode, This zombie will have a different texture and will glow purple. While in shadow mode, Bullets, Objects, NPCs and players will go straight through this zombie. The best way to kill this zombie is to use explosives nearby.

Stone zombie
Has a good amount of health but is very slow. On hit, The zombie will damage it self for half of the original damage.

Strength zombie
This acts like a normal zombie at first. After a few moments or its health drops low enough, It will activate an ability making it self bigger and stonger. It will also reset its health to full, With a bonus 125 health.

Stunner zombie
This zombie will use a ranged attack blinding NPCs and players for a while, A bit like a flashbang. It has a normal melee attack.

Teleporting zombie
This zombie can teleport! This zombie will teleport behind the enemy and stike from behind. The zombie can not teleport if something is blocking the destination.

Traitor zombie
This zombie pretends to be your friend. He will look like a normal rebel until you get close... This zombie also affects NPCs as well.

Vort magic zombie
This zombie has the power to use the vortigaunt beam. It will also activate enpowered hands to make his attacks stronger.

Acid zombie
This is the ranged zombie of the pack. This zombie will throw acid at enemies. ( Idea by IceHead )

Group healer zombie
This zombie will heal nearby allies/enemies in a small radius. Has a basic melee attack

Super Horror zombie ( Boss )
No zombie pack would be complete without a boss! This zombie has a few abilitys such as the screamer zombie and the shadow zombie. One ability he has is to deal damage to random NPCs/Players on the map. He deals massive damage, But a simple admin gun can take him down pretty quick. He has a lot of health This boss is even stronger in the map gm_secret_lab ( A map of mine you can find in the zenlenafelex's mods collection. ).




Console commands
All the console commands you can use to customize the nextbots start with wz_ For example, If you want to customize the teleporting zombie, The commands would start with. wz_teleportzombie_


Why i made this
So for a long time now, I have been making Player Nextbots for gamemodes, Such as Smashing Survival and Absolute Nightmare. I wondered what it would be like to create NPC nextbots. So i gave it a try. At first, it seemed pretty complicated, But when i completed my first zombie for this pack ( Shadow zombie ) i found it was quite easy to do. I found it fun watching NPCs fight my nextbots. I might work more on nextbots in the future.

Credits

Zenlenafelex: ( me ) The code and some effects, Do i really need to credit myself?
Valve : Pretty much everything else, Sounds, Models, Some effects. etc..



Conflicting mods
Mods that conflict with this one are normaly ones which change how NPCs die. or how things take damage.
I can't do much on my part for that, Depending on the bug of course...
But it mostly happends due to nextbots and NPCs sharing the same OnNPCKilled hook

Remember to report any bugs you find.
Thanks, And have fun!

I have to agree, It was quite stupied of me to do that, I did not really think about it at the time, But it is quite annoying. Other nextbots i make no don't have this anymore.

This would be great if not for every lua entity file containing mandatory navmesh generation without asking user's permission or having a cvar to disable that.

@Vortigaunt Calaca : You mean like a wacky vortigaunts nextbot pack? Yes, Sounds cool.
-------

Yeah guys, This mod is... Old, It uses tons of old code i wrote a while ago so it might be a bit buggy or the AI gets stuck often, I hope to make a newer version of this whenever i feel like it.

Can you make a wacky out of vortigaunt?

I'm not really working on this mod anymore, But i have thought about making a new zombie nextbot pack, So you can expect to see a fast poison zombie there :)
