This includes game props as well as a full example in the form of Deadline 2, an updated tutorial campaign. Scavenge Mode Support! All the elements map authors need to support Scavenge in their maps. This allows you to base variable paths and other events on the player's skill and current conditions. The better the Survivors are doing, the angrier the AI Director seems to get. This can dramatically reduce the file size of Campaign add-ons, as the same map can be used for Co-op, Versus, Scavenge, and Survival.ĭirector Logic: Maps can now alter their layout and behavior depending on how "angry" the A.I. Gamemode Logic: Designers can now make a single map that can behave differently depending on the gamemode in which it is being played. These are similar to the tools released for Left 4 Dead, but include many updates and new features.
