Golden CID Depowered

[A Space Ostrich]

A small mod which makes the golden CID slow enough to catch with super movement disabled. It features two versions, Normal, which requires you to run the CID down, but ultimately he can't get away, and Hardcore, which requires you to use vehicles and force the CID to switch directions to catch him, he can outrun you in a straight line, so conserving sprint energy is important.

I may see about including an easy mode, though by that point you may as well just download this mod: http://www.saintsrowmods.com/forum/threads/golden-cid-stays-in-place.4794/

Thanks to Allelz for telling me which code to change, and IdolNinja for being, well, IdolNinja.

Useful mod. This may be off topic but am I the only one who sees the resemblance between th golden CID and the golden snitch? Me thinks Volition was watching too much Harry Potter.

Well, they made the comparison too. When you're told to kill it to reduce threat by Kinzie, "Now I'm chasing a little golden ball?"

It was lampshaded I guess.. but this however is an interesting mod. Now instead of just chasing with super-sprint and mashing e, it makes it more of a special challenge of chasing a guy down. I think I might do this in another playthru, turn off powers at some times to make it different in feel.

Thanks, what do you think of the speed for the normal version, too fast? Too slow?

 

[Knoxx]

I think the speed is good. Still provides a challenge.

I don't like it, it's more cool hunt him [good work]
Make him be more faster to challenge be better.

If you're after more of a challenge I recommend the Hardcore version, and if that's too slow for you, let me know and I'll put together a faster one, though catching it will be damn near impossible.

Yeah, i use this... Thank you, i'm waiting for this
And Thank you again for attention ^^

Considering the fact that Nolan North makes a Harry Potter reference the first time You see them, yeah.

I'll be updating this to fit with the latest patch soon, so if it stops working that's why (I have no net connection at the moment so I can't patch my game). When I do I'll include to more difficulties, Impossible and Supercharged. Impossible will be even faster than hardcore, to the point where it might not actually be possible to catch it. I'll try and tweak it but there is a very high chance you'll need to abuse CIDs AI to catch it on impossible. Supercharge will be for players without supermovement disabled, which will make the CID faster, till he's on about the same level as the Hardcore CID for non superpowered characters.
