Infestation in RR?

Has anyone figured out how to place infestation in the ready room?

I want to add infestation to the Gorge slide on Waterdome, I've tried many setups all without success.

I've:

- Tried all combos on the cyst entity
- Placed a hive for world team and assigned cyst to world team, cyst don't appear
- Tried using contamination but it only last a few seconds
- Can't see a Gorge tunnel available to use

Ideas?

    You'll have to use decals for the texturing, and either props or non collision geometry for the "blobs" (animated prop if you want it animated).

    Sorry, but this is the only way. Kind of a good thing though as this will give you more control over the placement. :)

    You would have to code this, it's rather easy.

    You could also just increase gorge speed through code too. Also pretty easy if you wanted to.

    I didn't know infestation did that either! 
        if self:GetIsBellySliding() then
        return self:GetGameEffectMask(kGameEffect.OnInfestation) and 0.068 or 0.2
    end

    would be kind of cool for the infestation to spread in the ready room after the aliens win.

    Really you folk did not know infestation speeds up belly slides?
    People complaining about slow gorges when they havent a inkling how to use its full speed... sad sad. :p

    Is it wise to include custom lua on maps? It would make it harder to make a map compatible in between releases of ns2 would it not?

    Not as cool as a ready room rave for a draw.
