V1 + Style Mechanics for Map Sweepers

V1 custom class for Map Sweepers!

Seeing how V1 cleared entirety of Hell in search for fresh blood, J Corp decided to hire the killer robot. It's a perfect deal: V1 gets to keep the blood it collects from endless waves of NPCs, and J Corp gets an unstoppable force of a fighter.

Class features

- Has no shield and is extremely squishy. Deal damage in close range to restore your health. - Style and Rank. Kill, land headshots, blow enemies up midair and do other fancy stuff to gain Style. Gaining style advances your rank. - Rank reduces damage that you take, and gives you invincibility frames, which let you survive in the heat for longer. For example, a blastcrab will deal ~70 damage on lowest rank, and ~30 damage on highest. - Almost fully-recreated ULTRAKILL controls. And it should be silky smooth in Multiplayer too, thanks to proper prediction. But slam storage and slam-jumps were too overpowered, so I decided not to implement them. Sorry guys. Dash/slide jumps are there though. - PVP support. J Corp gets V2, Mafia gets V1. In singleplayer/coop you play as V1 though. A bit inconsistent there, but whatever.

Controls/movement

If you've played ULTRAKILL then it's nothing new. If you haven't, it'll take time getting used to. For starters, V1 can't sprint, it just perpetually runs fast. It can't exactly crouch either, it slides (infinitely) instead. It jumps high, and it takes no fall damage. Read controls below to get the gist of it.

- Dash - press SHIFT to dash. This consumes 1 stamina. You have 3 stamina (above your healthbar), one regenerates over 0.7 seconds. You can dash midair. Jump at the same time as you dash to do a long jump. - Slide - hold CTRL on the ground to slide into the direction you are moving (or looking) to. This is faster than running and is your de-facto sprinting. - Wall Jump - jump while next to a wall, and you'll jump against the wall. You can wall jump up to 3 times in a row. You can climb buildings this way. - Ground Slam - press CTRL midair and you'll plunge straight down. KEEP HOLDING CTRL and you will do a power slam instead, which will send nearby NPCs and props flying upwards. Land directly on top of something to damage it.

Style Ranks

Rank affects damage you take and your invincibility time after taking a hit, listed below.

Name, damage reduction, invincibility time.

- Destructive - 0%, 0ms - Chaotic - 10%, 0ms - Brutal - 20%, 0ms - Anarchic - 25%, 0ms - Supreme - 30%, 15ms - SSadistic - 35%, 20ms - SSShitstorm - 40%, 25ms - MAP SWEEPER - 55%, 50ms
