Reinforced walls should be harded to destroy with crusher charge.

Post by username123 » 07 Aug 2016, 07:49

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):

Title

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):

Bit more of realism.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):

Crusher should be able to destroy these walls charging at it, but currently they only need to charge at it once, while with regular metal walls, they need to charge like 4 times with maximum momentum to destroy them.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):

same code as regular walls, but make them much harded to destroy than regular walls for obvious reasons.

It's actually rng based and appears to take between 1 and 7 charges. It used to be consistent and always progress wall->girder, and it's led to an embarassing accidental breach for me before.

so is this a bug then? if the regular walls are on average "more" reinforced then reinforced walls, it sounds like a bug.

But seriously, does uh, anyone know the way out?!

No, it's intended that rarely Crushers are able to break reinforced walls with a single hit and destroy the girder underneath as well.

It used to be 2-3 full momentum charges to expose the girder, then another charge 20+ momentum to break the girder.

I see the benefit in marines being surprised, but personally prefer the consistency.
