Bug Headcrabs don't do damage nor make citizens into zombies

[MetroCop dude]

I have tried many and I mean MANY times to try to latch or do damage to a player, I had Votton to help me test it out.
I would like this fixed As soon as possible pls.

It's been known that headcrab as a faction isn't finished. It was supposed to be staff only for events and such until the full functionality was added, but someone decided to make it a donator reward with it only having movement and jumping as features.

If you want to latch onto people, RP it and have staff change you into a zombie if you succeed.
This isn't an issue that can be "fixed" as it implies the functionality was there in the past. The functionality was never there, so this is a suggestion not a bug.

role play doesn't work in the sewers, it's a s2k zone, nobody waits to do rp.
either remove it due to being forever broken or give donators a different role than headcrab.

If nobody is waiting for RP, report them. It's apart of the rules, they don't change for the sewers. Do also remember that you're a headcrab and NPC's usually don't wait for a /me, so people will assume a headcrab is an NPC, people aren't gonna wait to be damaged before attacking.

As for the role itself, I agree it should be taken from donators as it's not finished. Though if you expect a replacement one, it'll be highly unlikely.

WHat you can do is make them start out as a zombie instead or just give them a completely different whitelist.

Starting them out as a zombie would be unfair, I had the headcrab whitelist in the beta and I had no issues in roleplaying with the role especially in the QZ zone. Once I latched onto someone and won the fight, I got turned into a zombie and continued from there.

There is no zombie functionality either. If we had Parakeets Pill Pack or a way to put other people in-control of VJ Base NPC's we could have the faction completed, and even have more types of player-controlled enemies for events, rather than having staff do everything.

 

[Conundrum]

It's neat when people roleplay with your headcrab. But boy is it difficult trying to make them stay in place long enough for you to write out a /me. Sometimes you can even manage to write out a /me but they'll just keep running away anyway.

The joys and pains of the unfinished role.

(Also xen frog whitelist when)

Not a bug, the headcrab faction does not have this functionality, it's primarily meant to be RP'd as it's a P2L faction
