Pingo Enemy

Pingo adds a new indoor enemy to Lethal Company.

Developed by JLeonL.

Pingo patrols indoor rooms, chases visible players, can be scanned as an enemy, and becomes increasingly dangerous as players stay near it.

Features

• Slow indoor enemy.
• Patrols interior rooms and chases visible players.
• Gives a chased player a 30 second targeting cooldown after the explosion cycle.
• Stops for 2 seconds at maximum buildup, then explodes and can kill players within 3m.
• Scannable as Pingo.
• High spawn weight by default.
• Spatial pingo.mp3 audio.
• Volume increases while players stay nearby.
• After enough nearby time, the sound interval ramps down until sounds overlap, then loops back so it does not stay permanently at the fastest rate.

Configuration

Config file:

BepInEx/config/JLeonL.PingoEnemy.cfg

Important defaults:

[Spawning]
SpawnWeight = 175

[Testing]
EnableDebugSpawnKey = false
ForceSpawnAfterLanding = false
ForceTestSpawnInFrontOfPlayer = true

ForceSpawnAfterLanding is disabled for release, so Pingo will no longer appear automatically when the ship lands. It spawns naturally through LethalLib.

Enable EnableDebugSpawnKey only if you want the host to press F6 to spawn Pingo during testing.

Installation

Install through Thunderstore Mod Manager or r2modman.

Required dependencies:

• BepInExPack
• LethalLib

Notes

All players in the lobby should install the mod and dependencies. Everyone should use the same version, especially for 2.0.0+ because movement is network synchronized.
