I know this will start something that is not relevant to this thread...
You should give it a look Giani. I forewarn you, it's long. lol But if you necro post asking for a summary - well you never know, someone might.
And btw, the word "hack" is also used in the context of biological systems. A very interesting macro engineering science book published recently is called "Hack the Planet". It would make for an engaging premise for a sequel Campaign.... but that's for another topic.

I gotta hear this one. Please do expand on your thoughts Giani.
Berg wrote:That is a fair point fail but i was thinking of a scav hybrid see the factory and units they use not entirely standard units or turrets
As I am understanding you, the goal is a hybrid look. I would go a step further. Not just a "look" but also incorporate a Nexus consideration. Give the Scavs the turret stock because it's NEXUS tech & built but have them mount it on a pure Scav chassis / propulsion - something heavy duty like maybe a CAT dozer. Just a brain burp.
Yeah thats the thing to get the look also vexed offered up an idea of oil drums as mortars see thats the sort of idea plumbing needed outside the box but inside the scav mind
I dont think there is a right or wrong way to think about scavs but i do like the idea of the rise of the tribe some one should right a story about it
Im just having a brain burp

Outside the box... yes, there's a whole world of untapped possibilities with Scavs. Really interesting too.
The Scav enclaves on my maps have substantial oil drum depots which would be a big prize but only if the player can beat the Scavs with a precision offensive. If the player just does the usual steam roller - KABOOM! .... the prize is lost. An interesting challenge, me thinks.

I agree. Scavs are mostly a blank slate.
I've written a number of fan fictions about 'em exploring those possible worlds over the years. Some are scattered in my project threads starting with "Trinity" in 2007. I find them inspiring still after all this time.
Added scavenger helicopters (model by Black Project) produced in VTOL factories (model by Berg). Every helicopter carries three standard VTOL machineguns. A VTOL factory is build for every three regular factories. Helicopters don't need to rearm, and no VTOL pads are needed.
Use the new model for NEXUS tanks.
Fix broken generator construction.

I used the Scav Chopper in my "War School Map-Mod" but always giving credit to it's creator - Black Project.

One of mine, 'Urban Closer'. They rush me within two minutes, and I end up getting my rear handed to me shortly thereafter. Play the map and you'll see for yourself.
Made a spinning helicopter blade animation (texture animation, not model).
Spent ages trying to get it to work properly with seemingly random occurrences of it working an not working. To discover there's a bug with the texture animation for VTOL jets which means it'll only work properly for every 3rd teamcolour starting at zero (so 0:green, 3:black, 6:pink 9:someothercolour).
