found unused deployed cybran scout model

It has an animation as well. I was thinking that it could be implemented in game. Cybran has the worst scout at the moment and perhaps a deploy mode could improve it. How about when deployed it cant move but still has cloak and its view range is increased to the same as its radar. if you think this is too much how about an extra -5 power required for this mode? This would also increase faction diversity. Could be useful on some maps and this change will not be game breaking. Cybran are probably the weakest faction right now and little things like this can help.

Why do you guys insist that cybran has the weakest of everything? You really think the 2 DPS is better then having cloack?

well Cybran scout cant hover over water like aeon nor does it have the radar range. it also has no gun and this is bastically an non issue but half the HP of the others and it is very vulnerable. if another raiding party targets it first and it dies raiding parts suck without a a scout.

while it is minor it is still technically the worst

The Snoop and the Selen cant hover either and they have a smaller radar range too (Selen has the smallest radar range).
The Mole is the second fastest, only beaten by(of course) the aeon scout and it has the best turn rate.

The only scout that makes enough damage to be even recognized is the Selen, the other scout weapons are just decoration.

Funkoff do you think you could make a mod that allows the scout to do this?

Easily... we'd have to decide what deploying is supposed to do.... increase radar range, give it cloak, something along tose lines.
