This was originally just a kind of concept map, but I will upload it because I am proud of the tech!
Its a god idea but needs amping up a bit! It would be good to have a map with 3 or 4 of these all dropping slightly more significant amounts of creeper around your base presenting a logistical challenge to deal with these deposits on the way to the emitters or to the loading points further out form the base. I think a nullifier will not be quick enough to take out the unit when depositing unless you could use a PZ so these areas would have to be managed.
Also I thought initially that the unit was vacuuming up creeper and depositing it elsewhere but it doesn't appear to be the case, I flooded the area with AC and it still deposited creeper.
Thanks for all the positive reviews! I hope that when I make a new map with these I could fill some requests.
With a properly placed nullifier I WAS able to kill the drop ship on a drop run. 8) (Close to the flight path, and with the edge of the nullifier's range on the drop point.)
The idea has merit, the implementation could use some work, it seems like the dropship only really went to one place! :o
Either way, it wasn't a bad map and if you work on the dropship idea it could turn out to be something really good, keep up the work and good luck! ^-^
