    Now that we are adding human & Alien NPCs, how about implementing 'The Thing'?

    As in a monster like John Carpenter's The Thing.



    You find humans on derelict space stations or stranded on planets, and rescue them. After all, you want to help people. Before you know it, crew members are missing or behave differently, and you suddenly have a quarantine problem on your hands.

    Could you imagine, you're in a room or small shuttle when all of a sudden a crewmember splits open and tries to absorb everyone in sight.

    I for one would like this to be a rare encounter though, otherwise whole armadas would fall prey to it, fast.

    What do you guys think, would that be an interesting NPC mob to add?

    Oooh, a horror mob mod, interesting. Recruiting more red shirts in the near future.

    I would like to see this kind of mob, but I think it may be too intense or frustrating for the default game. I want this in a horror/additional-mobs mod. Plus Krites and their poison-dart attacks. And Space Herpes.
    Space herpes! hell yeah. Dont dock at any abandoned space stations, your ship might get infected.
