I am bug squashing tonight. (zombie texture problem)

[Jesterman]

Okay so i just accidentally set off the AI eye (spawns arseloads of zombie units) and boy is it scary. However, it looks like the sprites are using either the wrong texture or the textures are scaled wrong. The shapes are recognizable but the actual pictures are merely black and whatever team color.


Attached is a picture of the situation.

Those Spire ships actually look really eery with that red-glow-line on the solid-black hull

Holy jeebus, if I saw those zombies coming for me I would take my fleet out the nearest wormhole and wall it up behind me.

That's actually the intended effect for zombies. Though I never saw it on the spire before. Freaky, indeed!

Ah well alright then! I was kinda freaked by how they look but i was doubtful if it was on purpose as it /does/ look a tad bit ...odd *EDIT* and I'm guessing they are recycled textures upon close inspection. but yes very terrifying in its own way.

Oh and if anyone is curious, i just got owned by those things.

I guess I just never zoomed in on zombies before, but I see now that mine do all look like this, except with friendly green lighting instead of evil red lighting. Very cool!

Cool
I like the look of normal zombie-ships, but this really outdoes that ..
