I got a better idea for the ling hivemind victims.
The moment they want to... they can spawn as a "wormling"
A lil worm that spawns invisibly but will be revealed the moment it wants to or tries to attack someone.
These lil worms can bite like a hand spider to get DNA points and return to the host, but... they can also keep going till they have 25 DNA and then "infect" another player like a parasite. Eating their brain and replacing them.
Now there is a "braindead" ling minion on the loose that can decide to help the ling as a body or let the ling absorb the body to give it more DNA.
And no.. the wormlings cannot do much damage and cannot communicate the moment they detach. Also they have 1 HP like most critters.
Also this means the hand spider needs a buff....wich should be simple. Give the hand spider a headcrab leap to stun someone, but if it misses, it stuns it self.
