Plenty of new stuff in this version, including an AI which controls any alien computer players and alien leavers. Many bugs have been fixed and I'm now near the final version...

EDIT: I'm now looking for some ambience music to go in the background for Aliens 2. If anyone has something i can loop that is under 250kb i'll add credit for it if it is used in the map. Ty :p

Are you still alive? I've heard some fools that join this game when I host say you're dead. Also some guy Salvatory has released a slightly edited version, .989, with giving edited credit to himself BUT leaving the map unprotected. Now all the nubs can mess up my favorite map since .38! Be warned!

To be honest, the latest version is much better than a lot of 1.0 maps I've played and has very few bugs.

I might suggest something along the lines of disable the view change from above/below ground for aliens. With so many units moving around it becomes difficult to coordinate an attack.

Well, a sad update. It seems some guy, No-Man, has unprotected and heavily modified this map and renamed it Silent Night 1.2 and 1.4. It's horrible, tons of crypts around the outside of the base as alien spawns, red and blue get a few barracks to mass plasma troopers with while everyone else has little to do. It's sad to see such a great map get corrupted by some nub. He doesn't even give any mention of you, except the "need any help, talk to callex in northrend" in the quests, though I think that was there originally. Doesn't even say you created the map.

I'v managed to lose the unprotecteds for this again so I don't think they'll be another version of this, especially now that i'm working on Solar Conquest...
I'll probably make another aliens game in the future though, but it might be a Starcraft 2 map ^^

A big thanks though to the people who've supported this map 'till the end ;)

hey is there something that tells you what is what in this game? i mean ive found a few things i think are secrets and no idea what they are used for. like turning on the reactor had no noticeable effect on the base from what i could tell. Its a great map though just wish i could figure out some of the secrets to make it even more interesting =)
