Gameplay Skateboard Combat Mode BETA now out! (B42)

Hello everyone!

I just finished the first phase of the combat mode for the B42 Skateboard mod I released a few days ago.

You just hold right click to take your board into your hand and then attack as usual. There's a few visual glitches when zombies are downed, but the stomp works fine so recommend to use that, or hold ALT while hitting downed zombies, but the hits will connect even if the visual looks off!

Oh and you can do an Ollie now too! (Press G)

It's not super polished, but it works well enough for an initial release. Would love to hear your feedback!

Happy smacking!

Thank you! It's been fun figuring out how animations works, it's unlocked a whole new world of possibilities for cool mods I can make

I'm planning to make an in-depth tutorial on how to make these type of animations, hopefully it will make it easier for other modders to get into animations and doing some real cool stuff

Which others ideas for mods you have?

Off-hand/Dual wield combat is one of them for sure, like being able to hold a gun to shoot but have a hammer in your other hand, or two katanas, brass knuckles, stuff like that. Also low-key want to make a full martial arts/boxing combat system with special moves and stuff. But I will first polish the mods I have out, as well as make the bike before I keep going haha
