ZDoom

It seems to pick one of the first three frames depending on how much damage is done. This is all I can say about it from guessing because there's no documentation about it whatsoever.

Does anyone have more info? It would be nice if it was added to the Blood page for clarification.

Other questions: Does it store anything in pointers, like the monster it came from as target or the shooter as target or anything? I'm trying to get blood to fly away from the monster it came from but all the blood actors always face east so it doesn't work very well.

Sounds stupid but food dye and water. That or try to find a local butcher, splash at the bash/slash or shot at cardboard or plastic/wax paper board(easy to get at wal mart).

What on earth are you talking about?

Well, not sure if he ment blood splatter pattetns. Its one way to study and get a general ideal etc.

Well, pretty simple actually. when a monster is shot, 1 of 3 gore sprites are chosen. the sprite then falls to the ground, goes to the smallest state after about 12 ticks, then disappears. like real life, right?

That's precisely it.

Yes, it can since this feature was added.

Cool. Do you know what the damage thresholds for each of the three states are?

For Doom, Chex and Strife, noting that "damage" is final damage dealt after multipliers:

• If the game is Strife, and damage is greater then 13, it shifts to the Spray state (if it exists), otherwise it adds 2 to the damage check for the next 2 checks.
• If Damage is between 9 to 12 (inclusive), it advances 1 state.
• If Damage is less then 9, it advances 2 states.
• If none of the above conditions are met, it doesn't advance the state.

Hint: If you got no clue what someone is talking about, better keep quiet!

The guy is a bot.

I don't think so.

Look at his posts, its always about meat, cooking or health stuff. Sometimes 'he' tailors some appropriate words in his sentence.

Really? I'm not seeing anything particularly suspicious. For a bot, he's also done some interesting sprites too.

Is the Spray functionality Strife-only or can it work in any game where the state exists?

Also, I added the info to the wiki page. Documentation is good.

Strife only.
