How come we arn't using the blue lightning graphic I made for electropulse?

$:-\$

How come?

it requires some work, for which i had no time so far

- I believe that they ARE affected by world alignmet (unless I made some bug)
- not leaving corpses is not a problem... but does it make sense? And do most people want it?

Not important... Just needs a different graphic

Ok, it's there

Thanks Matlu

I don't understand.

The alignment was Tech 6, electropulse was supposedly '100%', yet it failed on his Spider.

I think I require a re-explanation of the percentages.

And we need a new graphic for virus (Hint Hint)

Again, I think that EP shouldn't have strenth, if it works then it should just kill.

matlu · December 11, 2005, 12:22:20 PM

Hm, I looked at my code and I just realized that Virus & EP targetted at single monster also take resistance in account (with bonus 2, exaclty as disrupter and disintergator). Ok, I can make it kill without any attack at all... but wouldn't it become too strong then? It would kill 100% at world alignment 5. I think I should at least lower base probability to 40%

Okay. I would like that.

if its that strong then, i think it oughta definitely not leave a body behind.Â the virus would be like a flesh eating virus and the electropulse would be like a lightning bolt to 100% kill.

Electropulse is not a 'lightning bolt' it's an electropulse. Wiki it if you don't know what that means. So it should leave a body.

Dodger · December 12, 2005, 12:14:24 AM

No.
An Electropulse (well I'm assuming it's an Electro Magnetic Pulse) 'immobilises' machines, so there would be a 'body'.

Maybe it's Disintergrator that should leave no body

This doesn't matter! Why are we discussing it??

Dodger · December 13, 2005, 12:45:44 AM

Talking to myself again....Why do people have to delete their posts?

Known limitations:
- gooed monsters are not affected in any way, sorry
- commander in vehicle cannot be targeted (it is considered as attack at vehicle)

Ummm....When you say goo'ed monsters....Do you mean when they have got out of goo they can't be destroyed with EP/Virus? (like the holo ones that turn real?)
