Please tell me there's a mod for that. It would be terrifying. Imagine you just sitting in your mansion, reading SICP. Then something HUGE, GOOEY AND RED bursts through your wall yelling at you. That would be the best.

Literally all you would have to do is change the name of the hulk to "Kool Aid Man".  Literally ALL you have to do.

I remember someone suggesting making hulks randomly smash through walls going "Surprise!!!".... just in case someone was on the other side.

I don't see why this doesn't happen currently.

[Kaitol]

Because it's slightly too silly unless the person in question was hallucinating.

Mindless goo zombies don't strike me as having the wherewithal to speak intelligible English.

[Fniff]

I would enjoy a Wild Wasteland style setting where all the hulks yell "SURPRISE!" when they bust through a wall and the Jabberwocks spout Alice in Wonderland quotes.

Heh, that might be an alternate mental issue that acts like a toggle - instead of Schizophrenia's Interface Screw, have, say, Mania that acts as a weirdness toggle at, like, -1 or even 0 points.

[Tawa]

That would be excellent.

Maybe an option called "Silly Apocalypse" in the options screen.

[Fniff]

Perhaps this would be a good option name. Crazy Cataclysm?

[i2amroy]

There has been an idea to pull some of the funnier easter eggs out into a 0 point trait that would be called something like that, but we just don't really have enough funny easter eggs to make something like that really worth the time ATM.

The zombies not speaking I can certainly understand, and even advocate for.
But why don't we have Lewis Carroll prose flying around?

[scrdest]

Random extremely small chance for the Bible, or if you want to be inclusive, all holy books, having a recipe for a Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

If each profession gets a 'at job' start, have the Ballroom Dancer's building sometimes spawn a dancer zombie, who makes regular zombies follow him and move in sync for all zombies in range.

And military level armour (e.g. MPR vest, combat boots+pants+helmet) helps a lot.

I actually have that level of armour for most everything except the face, which is only covered by a fur scarf. And Glass Jaw means one shot to the face leaves me crawling out bleeding everywhere.

I think the targeting is light. Once I forgot to drop my light strip (active) and even though it was no bigger than my normal night sight, I still got shot at until I dropped the light strip and re-approached under cover of actual darkness. Do note that if the cloud cover blows over at night and you're within the extended "clear sky" light radius, sentry will shoot you with many bullets.

That makes sense. The last turret I ran into, I had a flashlight on. Probably why it filled me full of bullets so quickly. I even HAVE High Night Vision now, so that's not happening again.

However... EMP grenades can shut down the lab turrets and let you pick them up and set yourself, on occasion.

I'll keep that in mind, although I have no idea how to make or find those.

Turrets are a very good example of the fact that you don't have to fight every enemy in the game. In a science lab, just close the door to the room it is in if you can't deal with it. Additionally, never melee turrets. They might deal serious damage before you get close enough, and even if you do destroy them, they'll explode and deal more damage to you.

Probably right. I just like clearing every room I go into, which might be a bad habit in this type of dungeon.

Yeah, milspecs are designed to repel throwers.  As are the searchlight towers HuXTUS installed.

And then there's the antimateriel turrets.  Be glad I didn't make 'em burst-capable.

Battle checker here, most/all turrets are light-sensitive
Night Vision? That'll work well.
It also seems they're sensitive to sound, in my opinion.
