Summary0004180: Unique Monster Generator Graphics
DescriptionYou probably have this on the todo but I thought I'd put it in anyway:

It would be really nice to have monster generators unique to the monsters themselves. The "skull pole" is an OK placeholder.

Robots could have little factory buildings that spit out robots. Icicles could spawn from a master crystal growing in the ground. Etc etc... :)

I do like this idea. It's not very high on the priority list, IMO, but, I'd love for the guys to get to it when they can. :-)

We're not planning ones unique to specific monsters, but to various locales there will be ones (and possibly somewhat by broad types of monsters). The reason is that one generator can produce multiple monster types -- one could be icicle leapers and bats, for instance.

But if you look in the ocean, for another example, you can already see how there are the different visual style there.

My vote would be to make generators produce only 1 type. If they're random every time you enter the map, then there could be different monster generators.

Generators could be for a family of monsters (factories product all robots), goo piles for all squishy things, crystal growths for crystaline stuff.

Haven't gotten near the ocean yet... just brainstorming based off a couple of levels. :)

There are hardly any monster spawners anymore, so this is implicitly handled in a lot of respects.
