Sentinel

mod id: "492b5592"

GAME DESCRIPTION
=================

The Sentinel mode has been designed as a training for marines, where they can practice the following:
* Practicing the aim (straffing / dodging / leaping bots)
* Practicing target priority (who to shoot first)
* Practicing positioning (placing yourself correctly to defeat skulks when outnumbered)
* Practicing teamwork and covering fire
* Practicing the objective nature of the game (killing has no impact, marines have to focus on the objective to progress)

TYPICAL GAME ROUND AND WIN CONDITIONS
=======================================

Marines start at a randomly choosen techpoint on the map with a minimal base. An advance base is also created with an armory and a phase gate.
Aliens start with several egg nests scattered around the map, and a base containing upgrades.

In order to win marines have to complete 2 objectives:
* Kill all the eggs on the map
* Power and use the phase gate behind the alien lines.


GAME DIFFICULTY LEVELS
======================

The gamemode provides 4 setup: Easy, normal, hardcore and suicidal. You can see in which setup the gamemode is running by checking the name of the bots, the top left of your screen or the lighting of powered off rooms. (blue for the easy and normal setup, orange for hardcore and pitch black for suicidal)

EASY (Base AI)
---------------------

This is the default setup when changing map. The bots do not work together, react slowly and often miss multiple bites. They will sometime try to ambush but lack the skill do to so. This setup is basically a warmup and an aim practice. The lights are blue.

NORMAL (Nerfed Hardcore AI)
------------------------------------------

This setup is a bridge between easy and hardcore. The bots will start to work together and will have more combat capabilities. You won't be able to go on your own anymore without decent combat skills. This setup is good enough
to train everything without too much challenge. The lights are blue.

HARDCORE (Full AI version)
---------------------------------------

The hardcore version contains the full content of the AI. Expect aliens to scout, patrol, parasite, bait, retreat, ambush, and pack up massively, the bots react quickly to any threat or sound nearby and can only hardly be beaten with force. For this you will need to outsmart and bait the AI out of the defended eggs to have a chance.

SUICIDAL (Ultra angry AI)
-----------------------------------

This setup is not intended to be played and won. Bots here never miss a bite, they can hear you throw half the map and will never retreat. They will also spawn a lot faster than there hardcore counterpart. For each skulk killed, an egg is spawned closer to the marine base to increase even more the pressure. If that was not enough already most of the skulks are enzymed, they will use xenocide and have a chance do drop an umbra+sport cloud upon death.
