Ah, ok. I wasn't sure since I'm still poking at the source code and learning things, so that's more for me to know. ;)

That's exactly one of the things I intended this for. :D

Added. But it had to be copied to P_RipperBlood, too.
P_BloodSplatter did not need to be handled because it spawns the blood as a projectile which always gets an owner.

:shock: Do want! I imagine it could be used with various other calculations to simulate other types of hits too.

As the title states, this simple patch will allow it so that if you put PUFFGETSOWNER on a spawned blood actor, the blood will target the owner of the blood.

Note: as far as I could tell, P_SpawnBlood is the only function that handles spawning blood actors (and not particles, which is what P_BloodSplatter(2) are for, I think). If I'm wrong and the patch is incomplete, just let me know. :)
