Subclass and disable most function for damage and die. Look at WarLord code Teleporting state.

Set ReducedDamagePct to 1 and ReducedDamageType to "All".

The most effective way I know is to give them insane levels of health. Like 999,999 or thereabouts.

2nd I've never tried but would probably work. Use Cyberus and just change it's mesh to that of a Cow, disable all its attacks. Hell, it might even retain it's shield (hopefully cow shaped) but I've never tried it.

It works in the sense that the cow is immune to damage - however since the NaliCow doesn't have the Cyberus animations, it doesn't move but just floats above the ground. In terms of colour, it starts off gold and then, if hit, it turns green and the Cyberus hit effects are implemented. Here is a Cowberus

Some log spam indicating missing animations

The easiest ways are either using ReducedDamage or setting high health levels.

I believe in this map there is a ghost Krall that wanders around in one of the arenas, is both transperent and cannot be shot as projectiles go through it, not at home to check but I believe the bots aren't interested on it either, maybe something like this could be done with the NaliCow?

You are missing out. You should try some Nali Burgers, they're delicious. Better than Big Kahuna, just ask Samuel L. Jackson. :wink:

Give each cow insta for defense and 100% aim. Nobody bother it.
Also you can call instant death on any hit cow.

There are a lot of ways to do this... One example can be found in the map "MH-LandOfEternalSunset"...

Extreme solution: Don't put any player starts in the map.
