[3.4!] FINAL DOOMER +

[rabid marine]

Sue me if this has been discussed before, but looking at how this is no longer going to be centered around final doom, will there be a name change?

[Sgt. Shivers]

weapons will be different story i presume

We're making good progress, only 2 weapons in the Ancient Aliens set to go!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I dunno, but probably not.

well, i'm still thoroughly convinced that the simple Maser beam is dealing significantly less damage than the other ones on GZDoom 2.2.0. like, at least needing twice as much ammo to kill something compared to the other beams.

You never actually answered my question. Are you still using 1.0?

[Slax]

It is time for crime. As in MASER NOOOOOOO!

[Captain J]

I felt maser is kinda weak, but hey. When something's being fried, it'll die eventually.

EDIT:

Maser is very strong according to my processor. So strong I can feel it heating the room I'm playing in up whenever I fire it.
;_;

When it comes to the multiple boss fight, you've gotta fry them like a hour.

no, i've been using 1.2 over here, and previously i had the maser error with 1.1.

Well, I don't know what to tell you then.
The simple Maser does 5 damage per tic, always.
The normal Maser does 5 damage per tic, always.
The fancy Maser does 5 damage per tic, always.

If 5 is not equal to 5, than the universe is probably imploding.

I just went and tested this against a cyberdemon, it took roughly 190 more ammo to take him down with the simple beam than the other two. (2.8.1 ZDoom, 1.2 This)

While I feel like I'd be able to tell if that was occurring, I'm slow to pick up on things so maybe it is. Though I am fairly sure the Maser thing is happening in some weird way.

[DoomRater]

I'll dive into the code and see if I can't spot a mistake somewhere when I get time.

[Viscra Maelstrom]

yeah, there's definitely something up here. testing against a cacodemon with about 790 ammo, killing one with the simple beam took about 45 ammo, with the standard and OGL one only needing around half as much to kill it. no idea if it has to do with using 2.2.0 of GZDoom or not.

Well, seeing as according to ZDoom, 5 damage on a projectile and 5 damage on a railgun are NOT THE SAME GODDAMN NUMBER, I've rewritten the simple maser stuff, it now does AMAZINGLY ENOUGH, 5 DAMAGE!
Thank you very much for poking me about this, it's good to have it working correctly now.

If you'll excuse me I'm going to go stab zdoom with a knif

Are you sure it's doing 5 damage and not "5" damage?

[Yholl]

Are you sure it's doing 5 damage and not "5" damage?

Possibly one of the most cryptic messages I've received.

In any case;
The projectile damage.

Code: Select all

Damage (5)

The railgun damage.

Code: Select all

TNT1 A 0 A_RailAttack (5, 0, 0, "None", "Red"

Thank you, senpai! I tried my best to imitate ZDoom's logic.
