DoomRL Arsenal - [1.1.5] [MP-B7.3]

[Viscra Maelstrom]

i love the nuke barrels. they've never been much of a roadblock for me, but more of a "okay, how can i best use this to my advantage?"

[DarkTalon25]

armageddon barrels
they are nuke barrels that creep toward you when you aren't looking and explode when close
turn corner, everything is fine
turn same corner again, suprise nuke in your face

Wait, are those real? ohgodpleaseno

Nope, but someone knows how to make something like those. And that someone happens to be also heavily contributing in this mod.

Found a bug in multiplayer.

I was just in a session with a friend using DRPG with DRL Arsenal, and in order to make things riskier, we turned on Armageddon difficulty, and had the weapon loss on death option turned on in the gameplay menu. Everytime we died though, the weapons carried amount didn't lower when we lost weapons. Even though we were losing weapons and only spawned with the class starting weapon, the number counter remained at what it was before death, meaning the amount eventually became so high that we couldn't pick up any other weapons, and only had the starting weapons to use.

That's a problem with DRPG, sadly. The inventory system is very bugged when it comes to affecting RLA's weapon limit. Until whenever that might possibly be fixed, the only workaround that I can think of right now is putting a bunch of inventory items into a locker, which also decreases the weapon counter for some reason. Either way, if you're coming across problems and you have both DRPG and DRLA running at once, it's a safe bet that it's a problem with DRPG.

We have the setting to disable all barrels, but I think it'd be better if we had three options: no special barrels, all but nuke barrels, and all barrels.

How about a fourth option: only nuke barrels

I mean, sure, if its JUST an option.

I'd love to see my laptop just explode after playing Barrels O' Fun with that option.

Well, that's what you get for using an explosive barrel as a computer.

That's not a bug, that's a limitation. Do not use that option with DRLA. Ever.

Absolutely LOVIN' the mod, but . . . .

That nuclear barrel should be optional. It always seems to appear where I can't see it, but still get killed by it.
Just about everything else is OK.

Heheeeeh.
Next update has barrel options, don't worry.

M-me?

No. Please do not answer if you don't know for sure, it spreads false information.
The Drop Weapon on Death is a ZDoom option that simply strips you of your current gun on death. It does not take anything else, so the identifiers, the weapon limit, all these things are untouched. Ergo, the number remains the same.

I'm sorry, I can't add this to DRLA.

because I already added that weeks ago ahahahahhaa

Uhh, maybe? It's amv2k9 actually. I stumbled into a thread where someone's requesting for explosive barrels that creep towards you when you're not looking. IIRC he knows to how to make some from scratch.

[Tanksy]

Replace the Hungry with flying nuke barrels.

...Yes, that's basically what I said. Then, if you're using DRPG, you can work around it by putting a bunch of items in a locker. Which I can verify does work.

[subenji]

No, it's not anything to do with DRPG.
Even if you played RL Arsenal alone, when zdoom strips you of your weapon, it won't strip you of the RLA inventory tokens associated with it - including the one keeping track of how many weapons you can hold.
There's no way around this - so just don't use that option.

The only reason DRPG's locker works around the issue is that using it does an update of RLA's inventory tokens on your character.

[Take One]

Again... yes, you are literally just saying that I'm wrong and then rewording what I said. He said that he was using DRPG, so I said that he can work around that by putting things in a locker. Which you agree with. That is all. If I worded something weirdly, then sorry, but I already clarified it, so there's no need to keep saying that I'm wrong about something.

[subenji]

You outright stated DRPG was the cause of the issue, which is completely incorrect.

I wonder what weapon from Heretic/Hexen that'll be picked and implemented..

I can see the Firemace making it, seeing that it's a unique and unusual weapon from the get go. As for Hexen and Hexen II, I think one of the superweapons are the ones who are going to make it. The Wraithverge, Staff of Set, Purifier and Raven Staff are good candidates.
