Hehe, and it actually does something, unlike in DoomRL. I like making useless assemblies actually do things.twinkieman93 wrote:I haven't done much experimenting with the plasma shotgun, but it seems pretty neat. I didn't expect to be able to put a plasmatic shrapnel mod onto a plasma shotgun with the obvious logical fallacy involved, but I'm glad you can, because that was pretty funny.
Hahaha, and of course people instantly work out that I altered the fist dropping message.twinkieman93 wrote:Speaking of funny, attempting to drop your fists is good for a quick laugh.
It also makes the weapon a lot more accurate, as I pointed out. For some weapons, they become perfectly accurate. For example, the laser rifle. That having been said it's still rather pointless as you can just stick two sniper mods on any weapon with two open slots and get perfect accuracy without any loss of fire rate.Kate wrote:Speaking of useless assemblies, is there actually a point to making an assault weapon? I mean I can understand the point in ammo conservation since you can single-shot fire a rapid-fire weapon, but unless there's actually some kind of stat bonus to them, there's no reason you'd ever want to do this since usually rapid-fire weapons of that sort will have plenty of ammo provided for them anyway due to map balancing taking to account their rapid-fire properties.
I actually found out completely by accident while dumping all my weapons on the test map and I mashed the drop key a few more times than needed. Something that would be nice was actually suggested by some other guy, and it's pressing the use key to pick up weapons and modpacks as opposed to traditional run-over-and-instant-grab mechanics. I simply don't want to pick up modpacks I'm never going to use, and I also don't want to accidentally strip a gun down for ammo when I actually wanted to pick it up.Yholl wrote:Hahaha, and of course people instantly work out that I altered the fist dropping message.twinkieman93 wrote:Speaking of funny, attempting to drop your fists is good for a quick laugh.
Assault weapons have half bullet spread for hitscan weaponry, perfectly accurate on all current projectile weaponry, and do 1 more damage. Also, makes minigun amusing.Kate wrote:Speaking of useless assemblies, is there actually a point to making an assault weapon?

Hahaha, you ninja'd my post by a few seconds.twinkieman93 wrote:Speaking of the laser rifle, making it actually be more like a laser would be cool, rather than a funky red hitscan. Maybe something like the energy bolts fired by the sapphire wand in HeXen?
Unique drops, not exotic, there are currently only four unique weapons in the game, the Jackhammer, BFG10K, Railgun and Mysterious Magnum.Gouanaco wrote: I downloaded the wad and begun playing on the doom2 vanillia levels...
I got these:

Are you sure you lowered the chance of unique drops?
Lol?
Yeah, I have no idea what's up with that. The spawning randomization seems fine, and it tests out fine, but then I'll start up a game and the first freakin' shotgun I find is an Assault Shotgun. Happens sooooo often. Is this coincidence, or is my code odd, or are Zdoom RandomSpawners just inherently crazy like that?Gouanaco wrote:I got both of these straight away on E1M1 and E1M2???
Other than that the mod seems okay (No bugs i mean)
But ill keep looking.
Yeah, but it only happens with the Assault Shotgun. It is randomised, but for some reason you start up a game and half the time you're already staring straight at one. It's weird.twinkieman93 wrote:I don't see the same amount of assault shotguns you seem to be finding. I guess you're just luckier than I am. It IS random, right? Sometimes you just get lucky, that's all. I wouldn't be concerned, luck is often a core part of the roguelike experience. Take The Binding of Isaac for example. One run you might get some ridiculous combination of items that make you nigh invincible and dish out tons of damage. The next run, the game dickslaps you by giving you items like The Poop and Lemon Mishap with no health upgrades, bombs or keys. It's all in the luck of the draw; the skill portion of the program is what you do with what the game gives you.
Not a bug, it's not getting pumped. It pumps after each shot, not after reloading, except for the final shot in the shotgun.twinkieman93 wrote:Oh, and since you asked for bug reports, here's one: If you reload the Combat Shotgun without emptying its magazine tube completely, racking the pump at the end of the animation makes no noise.
Not a bug. It will display the name of whatever weapon you walk over if you cannot pick it up. You can't have two chainsaws.Jack Mackerel wrote:Minor bug: having a chainsaw already and going over one on the floor will have the text ~chainsaw~ float in the center of the screen. It doesn't do this with any other weapon.
The Triguns there are neither centered or Doom-styled, unfortunately, but good thinking. I'd almost forgotten they were in that.Jack Mackerel wrote:Oh, if you need sprites for the Trigun, someone used it in the Yukkuri Doom Hack. I can give a link. I swore I saw a Hellsing Jackal somewhere.
