Description
NEW NEXBOT RELEASED: Mr. Sinew

This is my first upload to the workshop ever, this guy likely has bugs due to the way he works. Please leave any major bugs you experience down below. Will be polishing him at some point.

The FATE Nextbot acts slightly differently to normal Nextbots. He tries to hide more often, however, there is a chance upon finding a hiding spot for the FATE to enter LOCKED-IN mode.

He will release a roar audible to the player regardless of distance and travel at an incredibly high speed to the target's last known location (I.E. where you are when you hear the roar). From there, he will either attempt to pursue the player normally if they are in range of this last known location, or if they are able to run far enough away, he will go back into hiding.

If you hear its roar, your main focus needs to be direction. If he is coming down a path you are walking into... you get the picture.

NEW:
On top of this, Fate now has a new feature. If he is in chasing-mode (I.E. not hiding or LOCKED-IN), and the player cannot see Fate in their FOV/LOS, he has a chance to vanish into a cloud of smoke and relocate to a random location away from the player.

FIXED: It is now most likely fine to spawn multiple Fates - previously his code contained a variable not local to each specific Fate entity, so they would often all activate LOCKED-IN at once.

Credits to @Nikson_Official (GameJolt) for the roar sound effect.

-Teleport is sorta broken, just teleports into a wall sometimes
-Rage mode not long enough

Very scary! Might make a video about it! :resmile:

@Sunset's Eve Really? Interesting, I was working through that error the other day and fixed it + updated this page, have you tried reinstalling?

Looking at the code for the current update/patch, "GetFOV()" is used in the server section which is valid since GetFOV can be used client and server (in "Player" class, client with GetFOV of camera panel but this isn't being used).

Also just released a new patch, should be fixed anyway.

Turns out that the teleportation while out of sight doesn't work for me. Here's the error if it helps at all:
