Not sure what their ignite is; probably similar to ours (we do have an ignition mechanic) which is what I'm talking about.Snypehunter007 wrote:BTW, when you say "ignite" all mobs on the tile do you mean like TG and Ypgstation ignite?

There way their ignition system works is that if you step on a tile that has fire, you catch on fire.Surrealistik wrote:Not sure what their ignite is; probably similar to ours (we do have an ignition mechanic) which is what I'm talking about.
I would show you a link if I could but don't have a good one right now.

Re: Make Incendiaries Worth A Shit/Not Retarded
Yeah, that's definitely something I'm going for; though I think taking multiple consecutive ticks of damage from a burning area should be required before igniting, unless you're covered with ethanol/oil/other highly flammable substance, etc.Snypehunter007 wrote:There way their ignition system works is that if you step on a tile that has fire, you catch on fire.

Sorry it took so late to respond but if you can watch this: https://youtu.be/H9ClVwaNQuE?t=818 at the time, you can see what I mean by moving through fire. I believe this is on TG station.Surrealistik wrote:Yeah, that's definitely something I'm going for; though I think taking multiple consecutive ticks of damage from a burning area should be required before igniting, unless you're covered with ethanol/oil/other highly flammable substance, etc.

Hey guys, Bigs here. I literally built this character off of using flame weapons and torching hives, and I'd very much like to keep the trend going. I'd like it if my nickname actually meant what it used to in Pre Alpha, not just looking flashing.

I don't think it should permanently ignite the mobs IMO, use it when a queen charges or something, and the entire mob of aliens would have to drop and roll, stunning them for a few seconds guaranteed. Have the on-fire dissipate after a while.

It doesn't permanently ignite mobs; each burn stack has a limited duration; using resist does stop drop and roll which gets rid of a stack after a delay and self-knockdown.Cupcakes_n_Hacksaws wrote:I don't think it should permanently ignite the mobs IMO, use it when a queen charges or something, and the entire mob of aliens would have to drop and roll, stunning them for a few seconds guaranteed.
