Acid Spit Doesn't Damage Sentries?

Post by Surrealistik » 21 Jun 2016, 14:04

Bug Description:

Spitting furiously at a sentry seems to do nothing.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Spit acid (yes it was acid, I double checked) at a sentry dozens of times without an Engineer to weld it back up to health.
2. It doesn't die.
3. Rage and post on these forums.


Either the acid spit does an abysmally low amount of damage to sentries (like ~2-4% per hit; could be the case), or it's not doing anything at all.

Neurotoxin doesn't do much damage at all, but the acid spit should. I'm going to test it out.

Neurotoxin probably shouldn't do _any_ damage to a sentry (it's a machine, neurotoxins have no effect), but acid should definitely be hurting it some.

Yup, it does abysmally low damage. Not sure why, I'll check on it.
