Description
End of Support: This addon will no longer be updated.

Bend the insects to your will!

This addon allows players to manipulate Antlions to do their bidding using Pheropods with extensive versatility not otherwise achieved by global settings.
Features
  • Antlions and Antlion Workers passively follow players with Bugbait in their inventory.
  • NPCs who are normally friendly to players but hostile to antlions won't start a fight with baited antlions.
  • "Move" command: You can throw Bugbait at a point to get antlions to move there.
  • "Attack" command: NPCs and players struck with thrown Bugbait will be attacked to death by the antlions (even friendly ones c:<).
  • "Regroup" command: Pressing the alt-fire hotkey with Bugbait equipped will make nearby antlions temporarily stop attacking their targets and run back to you. Wait a bit or press the reload hotkey to unleash them again.
  • With a convar enabled, Antlion Guards and Guardians can be controlled!

Configuration
  • fp_enabled: Enables the addon's effects.
  • fp_playerenemy: If enabled, other players on the server will automatically be treated by antlions as enemies of whoever holds Bugbait instead of as their friends.
  • fp_guards: If enabled, Antlion Guards and Guardians can be controlled with Bugbait.

people really need to learn that ai can conflict i accidentally broke combines once they just stood there

If they aren't following you even with bugbait, I'd start by checking for conflicts. This won't work well with other mods that change NPC AI.

I was like "it would be cool if the bugbait was functional." and now it is!
