Buffs Penned Nerf Darts #3363

Closed ArcLumin closed 7 years ago

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

Adding a pen to a nerf dart now boosts the damage of the dart from 5 to 11

ghost commented 7 years ago

Heh no, I don't want this to become an actual cost effective strat to buy foam force and load pens.

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

You need to also add in the pen after every shot, as it doesn't keep the pen inside of it

JohnMcLaime commented 7 years ago

Dont be dumb, it would take a lot of preparation time to get proper ammount of ammunition upgraded and it would still require a lot of hits to kill someone. Better buy ebow or emag and steal stunguns. Fucking lol. You would rather have a shitty 1 hit kill combat but not this? Come on.

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

And it doesn't boost the damage very high at all. Good luck even getting 10 pens you need to get a crit with this, screwdrivering 10 foam darts, addings 10 pens to it, adding all 10 foamdarts back in, and then making all shots hit. If you fuck up you gotta prep em again

MethMedic commented 7 years ago

Would be good as a finishing weapon

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

"you just got killed by a nerf dart nigga"

asskek commented 7 years ago

I like this, allows for cool Owl gimmicks

ghost commented 7 years ago

haha yes go ahead +1

KittyKathy commented 7 years ago

Hmm where can you get a ton of pens.... Also it would be cool if you could insert a sleepy pen into the foam dart for a improvised syringe gun which is reusable if you miss. Can you get the pen back from the foam dart i am not sure you can. Sucks if you accidentally used your energy pen to make one. Why can't this fire activated energy pens!

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

it can. However it just drops the activated pen in front of the target. Any pen inside the dart drops after the shot, not affecting the shot's damage directly.

asskek commented 7 years ago

dude holy shit!! imagine firing activated energy pens like a makeshift laser rifle. kitty's idea is genius

LuisReyesX commented 7 years ago

You can already put sleepy pens inside normal foam darts and it gives them the effect, so this is actually a good balanced change

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

And foam darts have nothing to do with Nerfs as they are represented in the Sears Catalog, don't be a fucking faggot.

KittyKathy commented 7 years ago

Why does it delete the foam dart it uses and drops the pen. Would be a waste to use riot darts because it does not do stamina damage and it deletes it when used. Also why is it dropping the pen in front of them instead of making it hit them it would be useless right now to use any pen other than a ordinary one. I tried in a test server unless it is RNG dependent this is not a ranged sleepy pen gun disappointing.

JohnMcLaime commented 7 years ago

Make pens embed?

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

Yeah just use an ordinary pen. Would be neat. But I'd need to heavily change the current code to make it so that pens do an attack by when in the nerf dart. This is just a small damage tweak

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

Need to alter how this code is done considerably, but I'll take a look at it. Might have to make it a tad snowflakey. Foamdarts already are a bit snowflakey so it might snowball. But yeah, prolly something like adding the force of the pen to the damage of the projectile and then giving it additional properties based on the path of the pen (i.e. high damage for edagger, giving the sleepy pen effect for the sleepy pen)

SpankMasterson commented 7 years ago

+1 mcbaw experiences loss of opinion????

ArcLumin commented 7 years ago

Code review needed then it's good to merge.
