A mod competition design by Lord Havoc: Moddb.com
Designed by LordHavoc for a mod competition, for which I could not find a link.
The pods (top center screen, above the beams) are randomly placed on the ceilings (usually) or ground and after a while if you walk under or near them, they burst releasing 3 legged crawling, jumping little alien bugs.
I came across the mod some time ago and thought it was fun. Decided to add support when I was adding new monsters to the Chaos mod. The alien pods respawn, so you have to play in deathmatch or you run out of ammo.
Whats amazing to me is that these things randomly spawn - anywhere.
But look how crafty the placement is in this case - hidden above some beams in one of the darkest areas of this map. And they tend to do that frequently. They arent programmed for that, its just the way it works out!
