Part 2:Horde crush

Before doing this tutorial read Part 1.
http://www.the3rdage.net/item-761

To adapt this to a horde is pretty straight forward.

Like in the last part add a SET_MOUNTED locomotor and the crush settings for the unit.

This time however I'm using Howl as a template for the horde power.
Add a power like Howl to your horde, this simply to trigger the attmod like the hero mode in part 1.

Code



    Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_WardenRushUpdate   

        SpecialPowerTemplate      = SpecialAbilityWardenRush

        UpdateModuleStartsAttack  = No

        AttributeModifier = WardenRush

;        AttributeModifierRange = 200

        AttributeModifierAffectsSelf = Yes

        AttributeModifierAffects = ANY +INFANTRY  ;

        AttributeModifierFX = FX_WardenRush

    End

This time you add the Mounted Toggle to the horde.
The same code as before.

Code

    

     Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_HackCrushStarter

         SpecialPowerTemplate      = SpecialAbilityToggleMounted

         UpdateModuleStartsAttack  = Yes

         ;InitiateSound           = 

         StartsPaused = No

     End



    Behavior = ToggleMountedSpecialAbilityUpdate ModuleTag_HackCrush

         SpecialPowerTemplate    = SpecialAbilityToggleMounted

         UnpackTime              = 200

         PreparationTime         = 1  

         PersistentPrepTime      = 250

         PackTime                = 200

         OpacityTarget            = .3        ; How see-thru to be at peak of change 

         AwardXPForTriggering    = 0

    End

Now you need to create a SET_MOUNTED locomotor for the horde as well.
Repeat the process from before.

Now finish off your basic Special Power stuff and you'll have an ability for a horde that will crush enemies.
