I just saw a skulk glowing yellow on Lunixmonster after he spawned... admin_fun 0....

Spawn invulnerability?

Spawn invulnerability = 3.0 feature. This was on Lunixmonster... furthermore I don't think I've seen invulnerability work in Classic.

a civilian · January 29, 2004, 10:44:45 PM

Oh, on Lunixmonster. Missed that.

admins can do it when fun mode is off

Wasn't an admin, and besides, glowing goes away when you die.

I think the response you're looking for is OMG HAX.

No, really. I have no clue what it could be. Maybe just a random bug? As long as the skulk isn't moving at light speed and taking down HAs with one bite, I'm not going to leap out of my chair crying foul.

Heck I probably wouldn't even then. I don't move from this chair unless nature or an angry girlfriend requires it.

I was a skulk, cloaked, glowed yellow, got killed. Probably me, you goober.

This from the same guy who ran his onos into the middle of 6 heavy armor marines, devoured a guy, then ran in circles getting shot

I was cloaked right behind you guys, stuck in the corner. You were all welding each other and I was afraid I might get uncovered by a weld so I just said "To hell with it!" and tried to do what horribly, horribly little damage I could do.

Not quite the smartest thing to do there, Archi.

Uranium - 235 · January 30, 2004, 02:49:29 PM

Well I did weld a fade into existance in the same game while welding webs away

I'm pretty sure they glow yellow after they redeem...

Diablus · February 21, 2004, 06:57:58 PM

yes, they do but for like 1 1/2 secs

Keyser59 · February 24, 2004, 01:44:05 PM

I heard if you type "there is no cow level" as a skulk, you can get invincibility which is observed as a curious glowing.

One of NS's lesser known secrets.

BobTheJanitor · February 24, 2004, 02:08:13 PM

Yes I'm sure it's as useful as typing GG HMG in the console.

Diablus · February 24, 2004, 02:49:19 PM

lolol, good ol "ggMoney in consol" cs nub trick has been officially converted to NS

BobTheJanitor · February 24, 2004, 02:55:46 PM

Doesn't every mod have it's silly newbie jokes though? I think my favorite in NS is still the 'hey, check out this secret in the ready room' trick. (runs at wall, jumps, hits f4) Watching reams of marines bouncing up against a wall is just too funny.
