Bugs, Chages & New Features

<< < (3/4) > >>

Psion:
In any case the aliens in the movies just ripped or bashed or melted through all the sheet metal and welded doors in the movie.  It just slowed them down.

Maybe you could get a welder item that works sort of like doorspikes in traditional roguelikes.

BDR:
Here's another idea: Muzzle flashes allow you to see farther than normal.  Shotguns would show you a large portion of the area around you, but wouldn't extend your sight much; whereas bullet-type weapons would extend your sight much farther but restrict the extension to pretty much the path of the bullet.  Explosions would also give you an extension of vision, but only on the edges of the blast area and not much further than that (nor within the blast zone, as that area is too bright to really let you see anything), while the flamethrower/incendiary grenade would give you the best extension of vision overall (the flamethrower would show about 2/3rds of what the shotgun would show you, but would extend your sight much farther [compared to maybe one or two more tiles of vision given by the shotgun, you get four or five more tiles of vision]; both of these weapons would leave a patch of burning ground after use that would allow you to see a 4x4 area around the burning spot [or alien if you're more inclined to slaughter at that moment]).

Firstblood:
I think I found a bug but its difficult to tell due to the nature of the bug. It happens (or more accurately doesn't happen) on level 3 and it has something to do with the exploration bonus. I could be mistaken only it seems to have happened twice in a row on at least two different games (and I was only checking on those two). Possibly level 6 as well.

Schluberlubs:

I noticed a slight problem with level generation. As you can see in the above image,  the door is inaccessible.

Firstblood:
I think that might be a feature and not a bug, and its exclusive to the Medical Tower. I saw the same thing in a room, a door with no room. I assumed it was meant to represent a medical cabinet or closet. The door in your screenshot is actually accessible from the corridor, but theres no room and its on the edge of the tower.


I just scored a critical hit with a frag on a juvenile and dealt normal damage, shouldn't that be an instant kill? imagine lobbing a grenade and it exploding just as it enters the juve's outstretched mouth, and the ensuing mess.. ;)
