Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
Devs are specifically trying to avoid this to prevent power gaming and min/maxing damage values. You won't be t1d exact damage values, and it can get you noted/bwoinked if you're caught shooting monkies or something over and over to see damage valuesconthegodoffire wrote: ↑01 Nov 2018, 09:04OK kiddos, I need an answer and if I don't get one, someone help me make one... If we can.
Has anyone made a list of damage values on marine weapons and alien castes.
My "WEAPONS GRADE AUTISM" would love to find out what the damage is on a normal drones slash vs an ancient drones slash.
Little things like these on a list somewhere. Though at some point I think I heard that the staff like to keep the damage values top secret. Though I may have just heard that and be full of shit. Point stands though.
If this is at all possible, tell me. I would gladly help test out damages and what not.

Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
Is this correct?
Angled grips make you weld your gun faster.
Vertical grip reduces bullet spread while bursting.
But they both improve accuracy, recoil and spread by the same amount?

Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
Yeah that's about right. Accuracy, recoil, and single fire spread should all be very similar. The vertical grip does reduce burst fire spread at the cost of a longer wield delay.

Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
So I've seen quite a few posts about Point Blank firing requiring harm intent and a direct click on a sprite, I find when I do this however I just end up meleeing my target, can anyone give some advice on this?

Harm Intent, direct click on the sprite. Do be mindful of wield delay, holster delay, and click delay.

So if I click on something too quickly after drawing or wielding my weapon it will melee instead? So I should just keep clicking until it PB's?DefinitelyAlone0309 wrote: ↑20 Nov 2018, 10:04Harm Intent, direct click on the sprite. Do be mindful of wield delay, holster delay, and click delay.

Don't try to spam it. Space your clicks out, and leave at least 1 second between each click.

Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
not sure if they buffed it, but shooting behind a xeno instead of directly PB harm intent clicking them used to do more damage due to additional buckshot, whereas harm intent PBing would just do one buckshot and stun
did they change that?

They have fixed the PB bug only shooting 1 projectile, yeah. It's been like that for a while. How else did you think shotgun meta became what it is right now?

Thank you, wanted to clarify has its happened to me so many times I thought I was falling for a community inside joke for newbies, especially as I've seen a post saying you had to click behind a target in an adjacent tile to PB.DefinitelyAlone0309 wrote: ↑20 Nov 2018, 10:08Don't try to spam it.

M15's used to just be a bigger blast radius HE nade, haven't seen whats become of them since then, but I'd keep that in mind when tossing them around.

Is there a place where I can view all of the marks I've received by admins for misconduct and general Ahelp? Apparently, I have 9 marks on my record in the last month which is "Uncommon" as the moderator that banned me for a day said. I don't even remember half of them so to prevent repeating mistakes, I need to know what I did wrong for record's sake.

You can either PM one of the mods or above in Discord, or Ahelp in-game for your notes.trigillass wrote: ↑27 Nov 2018, 03:40Is there a place where I can view all of the marks I've received by admins for misconduct and general Ahelp?

That's a bit of the issue. Being banned for 24 hours prevents Ahelp and I'm not comfortable talking in the discord since apparently, I'm an uncommon deviant that has more marks than the common players in the last month. That's not a good sign for me.

Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
Is there a way to carry injured marine somehow but for “grab intent”? Once I saw someone doing something like taking marine on a shoulder to throw him over the cade, still haven’t figured out how to do that
Another question, is it possible to macro changing part of the body? I’ve read all 26 pages to see that it’s not working and .click verb doesn’t work
And the last one, is it possible to macro benos middle-clicking/shift-clicking for another button?

Re: >> QUICK QUESTIONS THREAD <<
You just have to reinforce your grip. You can do it by "activating grab" in your hand. After few delays it will be reinforced and you will be able to throw marine over cade.RuAlastor wrote: ↑04 Dec 2018, 20:00Is there a way to carry injured marine somehow but for “grab intent”?

.click was disabled due it's powergaming nature that allowed to reload Pulse Rifle in one click.
Probably this is disabled either, but I don't know why you would want something other than shift. We are already using it for "examine", or "walk" in other games so it's convinient.

Then press R and activate throw intent.
