Description
If you enjoy the addon, don't forget to leave a thumbs up!

May I introduce you all to the Combine Flame Trooper. This is a Combine Soldier that specializes in sector decontamination... with cleansing fire. Usually deployed as part of clean-up crews, these troopers are excellent at clearing out necrotics, xen infestations, and rebel camps. They are equipped with a combine flame thrower, fuel tank, and flame resistant padded armor.

When these troopers spot and enemy, they will quickly run to close the distance until they are in an effective range to use their flame thrower. This weapon will instantly ignite most enemies (and allies) caught in its cone. The cone is more than wide enough to hit several targets at once.

If outside of the effective range of his flame thrower the Flamer Trooper can switch to the fire bomb launcher on his flame thrower to pelt targets from a far.

The Flame Trooper's padded armor makes him immune to fire and gives him extra resistance to most other forms of damage. However, his biggest weakness is the fuel tank on his back. If it sustains enough damage, the fuel will ignite and explode killing the trooper and igniting everything else in the area around it.

Features of this NPC include:
  • Weapons: Combine flame thrower with fire bomb launcher
  • Destructible fuel pack with death sequence
  • Dynamic behavior based on distance to target
  • Flame thrower particles and sound effects

Feel free to offer feedback and suggestions. Such things help me with future development of addons. Thank you to EJ_5527 for the Flame Trooper model and thank you to MikeandIke111 for the early play testing and debugging of the npc. I know people have been asking for it, I am working on Rebel npcs. I just want to release a few more Combine npcs first before I start filling out the Rebels' roster.

In the meantime, enjoy!

Guys. Combine this NPC with the "advanced flames addon" and you'll see everything burn literally.

@funkyzombie Do you VJ Base install and activated? They should show up under "Rycch's Combine" in the NPC tab.

@Supermankid379 At this moment in time I am not making player sweps. A lot of animation stuff I am not ready for yet.

Hey rycch is it possible that you can make the VJ Combine Troopers weapons pickupable and usable as a gun cuz why its only made for VJ npcs and normal npc why can't we pickup the gun and use it why make the it be able to be picked up if we can't be able to be use it but when we get it just to be removed form our inventory and say its only made for npc to use it and not players or do you have to ask the VJ base addon to make the weapons that they drop usable for players it would be cool to pick up the flamers Flamer and then use it to burn other Combine npcs while holding off against them
