Devoured humans can explode their devourer

Post by factoryman942 » 08 Apr 2017, 17:00

Bug Description: I, as a survivor, was devoured by a runner. I was promptly able to cause said runner to die spectacularly, at a speed that probably should not be humanly possible.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Be devoured.
2. From a pocket/container, equip a weapon/tool, e.g. a crowbar.
3. Hold a movement key and observe explosion.

Feature.
Troublesome, as usual.

Is it intended for the time between swallowing and explosion to be less than ten seconds?

I always try to be devoured as survivor. It is so amusing to punish Sentinels.

This is very much intended, if you gonna devour a live, combat marine that is not fully stunned and has a knife, or take waaaaaaaaaaaaay too long to get someone to a nest, or not notice the knife sound effect, you deserve the cruel death

>take way too long
>has a knife

once again, <10 seconds and a survivor with a crowbar.
I know marines slicing their way out of xeno stomachs is a feature, but i'm guessing it's probably meant to take at least a short while?

Consider this my good man, xenomorphs to begin with aren't incredibly tough, and they've literally just put you inside of them, the easiest place for you to mess them up, I'd say it's intended to be the way it is.

Its a intentional feature, in fact its a feature on pretty much any SS13 server with Aliens that can devour people.

Its a reminder to not take too long to deposit your Human cargo.
This is war, survival is your responsibility.
