Re:Damage and medic weapon

320 — GMT

Okay I'm stupid so please type slowly. Is the medic weapon piercing or not piercing against foes? Also, on a related topic, does anyone know anything about pet dmg output? Do pet stats correlate to player stats? I.e. does the pet get my DB/DR or DB/DR based on my level? Or my health bonus, etc. Also, is pet dmg piercing?

Nice. If I'm not mistaken, the default crosshair for the trans is just a little red cross. Maybe blue. I'm not sure, I fiddled around with my crosshairs a bit.

Yeah, I bet you're right. I've messed with my crosshairs a lot. I use the Kaus crosshair pack nowadays which is really nice.

Thats awesome... Is that your crosshair? thats awesome too

That's the crosshair for the transloc. I think that's the default one and it comes with UT, so you can use it for other weapons if you want.

I noticed that my redeemer will resupply after a long ghost. This happened twice playing CTF Bridge of Fate. Pretty sure it started happening after getting denial 3

Kinda odd, but not a major deal. Figure a minute or two in the action plus another minute or more doing the long ghost and the round is basically over by the time you're done. Might come in handy in some clutch wave 16 situations, though.

The Monterey Aquarium is awesome. That's where they filmed parts of star trek 4. They had some pretty cool jellyfish the last time I went (about two years ago). I saw this really cool flick about a month ago by James Cameron (Terminator). It's called "Aliens of the Deep". Apparently Cameron is a total Ocean geek outside of directing films so he put together this expedition to film all this cool stuff. It's an Imax style thing and very high-energy (unlike your typical PBS nature show).

Same here, learned to drive on the farm with the "deuces" and tractors
Thats what my uncles 18+ Acres and off road Go-Karts are for :-).. And speaking of accidents, my family have been in our share aswell.. I have the scar to prove it(well i have scars to prove many things too lol). Also last week some guy hit my mom's car at 40mph.... Didnt even stop... Right into the back of it.. Thankfully she wasnt hurt

Was he at 40 mph and she at a dead stop??!! I sure hope she got x-rays and is checking in with a doctor weekly, if so. A former girlfriend of mine got in a wreck like that, thought she was okay and a month later was in so much pain she was bed-ridden for about three months straight. Her neck and back were so permanently messed up she had an operation to remove some of her... uh ... chest. The weight was causing too much strain. She was a triathlete and aerobics instructor and it totally sidewalled all her fitness activities for 2+ years. Very good chance of neck injury in those accidents that may not show for up to several weeks. It's not being sue-happy to get checked out thoroughly, you just don't take chances with those types of accidents ever.

On a serious note, I didn't get my license until I was 18. My pops basically said I could get a license whenever I wanted, but if I wanted to drive his car I had to pay for my own insurance and top off the tank every time I used it. On top of that, he assured me that I wouldn't be driving it more than one or two times per week. So, financially I was "priced out of the market". All my friends had licenses, though, and most had cars so it was no big deal. However, nearly every single one of them was involved in some sort of accident within a year of their license. A few guys in school were known to have had 3+, and this guy named Bud had 6. SIX! I myself was involved in two with friends during that time. One where we were forced into a gaurdrail on the highway at high speed and the other involved a rollover. Both could have easily been prevented if my friends had been more aware and defensive. They're both still pretty lousy drivers, though, didn't learn. I guess it's in the genes. As for me, seeing the costs involved and seeing everyone else get in stupid wrecks, I ended up being a pretty safe driver. :wink:

Bug regarding dropping/picking up artifacts?

Playing my LA char just now on Sympathy map, and accidentally tossed my tripple. (I have Loaded Art. lvl 2) Someone then "pinched me tripple", but that's not the problem. After a bit, a monster I killed dropped one, but....I couldn't pick it up. I ran over it a few times and nothin. :( Played another wave or two, and same story. Whenever another tripple dropped I couldn't pick it up. That really stunk. The tripple is my bread 'n butter. Don't know if this problem affects all artifacts or not. Any ideas as to why this happened? And if this is a recent intended change in the code, let me be the first to say, it ain't a good thing.

Electrician, the reason you can't pick it up is because normally chars are limited to 3 artifacts. There's a bug/trick where you can pick up more than that if the artifact starts to dissapear (what I refer to as "the toilet bowl swirl"). I think dropped artifacts "live" for around 10 seconds before they start swirling. Stand over the artifact and you'll get it. However, if someone swoops in who is not at their artifact capacity, they can grab the artifact pre-swirl, and you're out of luck. At any rate, this has been in the game for a long time.

Here's my best with my medic so far (level 34). I got stepped on like a n00b right at the start of 14. Too bad we didn't survive or I could have got another 300 - 400. http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/1218/medic1456kl0.jpg

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. Timmy: they're classified by the points you get when you kill them on this server. I'll add in the monster summoning later. I looked at the code and some object properties, and I see damage numbers on some of the Satore monsters, but I don't see anything like monster HP/DR/DB. I know those numbers have to be SOMEWHERE...I just donno where. Yet. Can anyone point me to either the data or where the data is in the code and I'll add it in? Also: I corrected the Ice/Fire Skaarj mixup. I'll add in everyone's additional notes as well once I get enough information for another big update.

Moof - for hit points, check this thread out: http://www.disastrousconsequences.com/dcforum/posts/list/1758.page For DR/DB, check this thread out: http://www.disastrousconsequences.com/dcforum/posts/list/2165.page#18181 and this: http://www.disastrousconsequences.com/dcforum/posts/list/2244.page As for how much damage the bad guys do, I don't know that info. It would be nice to know for people with pets, so they can pick the right pet in the right scenario.
