DoomRL Medical Armor Question

<< < (2/2)

tehtmi:
Medical armor takes damage just like any other armor.  The purpose of this thread is to discuss what happens when you mod medical armor to make it so it can't be damaged. This can be done with certain assemblies/rare mods.

Methinks I'm putting too much faith in the Wiki...

"The Medical Powerarmor cannot be destroyed by damage."

Couple of extra posts and I can start editing...

There's a difference between "cannot be destroyed by damage" and "cannot lose durability via damage" (which are, in fact, determined using two separate item flags). Medical Powerarmor and all uniques fall under the first category, determined by the IF_NODESTROY flag. The second, which is determined by the IF_NODURABILITY flag, only exists on a select few items, or can be applied with an onyx armor pack. Neither of these are called when medical armor "drains" durability in order to heal the player, which is why durability loss can still occur in that specific case.

So yeah, the Wiki is still correct.
