In this thread I will try to list changes made to the code, for possible inclusion in the next build.

  • Minor change to F1 scoreboard to hopefully iron out a few of the problems
  • Beam altered so time between shots now 0.5 sec instead of 1.0 sec, but instagib capability reduced so it does a max damage of 200 or half the monsters max health.
  • Similar for Bolt - now time between is 1.5 secs and damage max of 200 or half monsters max health
  • Beam, Bolt and MegaBlast changed to bypass DB/DR to match rod
  • StatsMenu changed to only show the abilities relevant to your class
  • Large restructuring of code preparing the way for SubClasses, but not introducing them yet. Hopefully this hasn't introduced many bugs

    Druid is concerned about the amount of link fire on the system, causing significant lag. On a temporary basis, I have submitted the following changes - which may well be removed once we know where we are going
  • The infinity weapon type will no longer apply to link guns. You just will not pick one up
  • The Medic Weapon Maker will no longer work on link guns. A very minor nerf, but not significant
  • The Engineer link gun has changed so it fires at half the speed, but each hit does nearly double the damage. So the main effect is half the number of link shots to replicate.
  • Eng link beam now does 35 damage every 0.24 sec (145/sec) instead of 20 damage every 0.12 sec (166/sec)
  • Eng link primary projectile fire now does 50 per shot at a rate of 2.5/sec (125/sec) instead of 30 at a rate of 5/sec (150/sec). Eng link projectiles also travel 25% faster
  • The damage changes are a slight nerf to the eng link, but not as bad as it seems, as the combined damage occurs on the first shot. So for example to kill something of health 100 with the beam takes 3 hits (0.48 secs) instead of 5 hits (0.48 secs). Likewise, the new proj fire will take 2 hits (0.4 secs) instead of 4 hits (0.6 secs). Without lowering the damage, this half/double change would have increased the link power.

    Mysterial's AbilityCounterShove extended into a new DruidCounterShove ability, so teammates are not shoved and better support for sentinels etc.

    Added a DruidRetaliate ability that logs how many retaliation kills have occured. Also does a minimum of one damage.

  • Fixed problem with driver of minigun turret sitting on the floor
  • Reduced width of collision cylinder for defense and lightning floor sentinels
  • Major change to the way kills and sprees are handled for the F3 stats etc for turrets and sentinels. Should work better in deathmatch now. This requires a new InvasionSpree
  • EnergyWall damage changed so it is slightly adjusted by the size of the thing breaking the wall. So less damage to gnats, more to titans. But not excessively so.
  • Change to summoned vehicles so hopefully they bounce around less

  • (DC)DEMONSLAYER

  • It's hilarious seeing the gunner sitting on the floor
