I have just figured out how to give AI'z Powerupz in Questz!!! I was meesing around when I figured it out actually, but apparently messing around workz very well! Just put the Powerup field with a number of a Powerup, and there's an AI with a Powerup! YOU CAN NOT CONTROL HOW LONG IT LASTZ! Or at least I haven't figured out how to. INFO Conversion Grunt WILL die after his health is dispersed. Conversion will also convert YOU AND OTHER AI'Z ONTO HIS TEAM UNTIL HE DIES. If all 15 are on his team, HE WILL START ATTACKING WITH CONVERSION! It takes away the same amount of health as a BareHanded Grunt.
Invisibility DOES NOT work.
Invulnrability, DeathTouch, ReactiveArmor, Roidz, and SuperSpeed last the same amount of time.
Roidz will work after AI hitz you the first time.Here is proof!! AI WITH DEATH TOUCH

Just to add to the conversion: Converted Gruntz will change to the team and color of the converter, but will become more 'stupid'... they'll stand still and only respond to an attack when they already lost health

Hmm, very interesting. I'd like to see how these powerup AIs get incorporated into levelz. Though note that if the powerup actually has an unchangeable time limit, players can just wait for the powerup to run out. You'll have to force them to go near the powerup grunt. Probably best done by a RB that would block off (or need to access) an area.

My Theory
If more people would start expirimenting with the GLE, more and more stuff would be found out that could improve the way Gruntz CL'z are made.

Important! Apparently, Tomalla has found out that AI'z can have Powerupz almost 2 monthz ago; he has just not posted it yet. P.S. No one cares probably, but I just wanted to remind myself that this was my 100th post!

It just occurred to me that combining an AI type that is designed to have a Tool (Bricklayer, Gauntletz, Digger, etc.) with a PowerUp is possible. I quickly thought of having a Tool Thief with a Tool that could be acquired, with an Invulerability (or some other PowerUp) ... but you cannot have both, since the PowerUp field is used for both the Tool and the PowerUp. Darn! But it meanz that we may put a Digger in a field of z with a Roidz PowerUp to fill in an otherwise impassable area for the solver's Grunt(z) to cross over. So a Shovel-less (or Gauntletz-less) Custom Level might even be possible. It is worth a try!

Well, if I ever get my 1000 th post, I would want a GunHat as well but, there seems to be a relation why the Designer 'star' is BrickLayer... Designerz build Custom Levelz, BrickLayerz build Brickz... My TheoryIf more people would start expirimenting with the GLE, more and more stuff would be found out that could improve the way Gruntz CL'z are made. Wasn't that what I said before in different wordz? Important! Apparently, Tomalla has found out that AI'z can have Powerupz almost 2 monthz ago; he has just not posted it yet. So, you will have to turn your applause to Tomalla. Thank you, Tomalla. BTW, if he didn't post, and you discovered for yourself, I believe the is still for you. How would we know he actually found it if he didn't post? Sure, we can still Tomalla for finding it out, but IMHO, the credit goes to who shares the discovery first.

Designerz build Custom Levelz, BrickLayerz build Brickz... I get that, but the Bricklayer, well, (no offense to you GooRoo) doesn't look the greatest to me. My TheoryIf more people would start expirimenting with the GLE, more and more stuff would be found out that could improve the way Gruntz CL'z are made. Wasn't that what I said before in different wordz? Where did you say something? Important! Apparently, Tomalla has found out that AI'z can have Powerupz almost 2 monthz ago; he has just not posted it yet. So, you will have to turn your applause to Tomalla. Thank you, Tomalla.

Sure, we can still Tomalla for finding it out, but IMHO, the credit goes to who shares the discovery first. Yeah, I still feel like I figured it out, but I just don't know...
BTW, if you center the camera on an AI that startz with a Powerup, when you load a saved game from that level, the annoying Powerup song will keep going and NOT stop. (SwordGrunt figured this out. )

Just to add to the conversion: Converted Gruntz will change to the team and color of the converter, but will become more 'stupid'... they'll stand still and only respond to an attack when they already lost health These are Gruntz with "0 Points"... And their tacticz is completely similar to a Post Guard. Their behavior won't be copied from the converting Grunt - a Converting Dumb Chaser won't make even more brain-less Chaserz! To know even more about converted Gruntz, see this Thead!
