add minimal damage

[soundmud]

When the armor is higher than the damage, a minimal damage should still be dealt. For example, in rules.txt:

def parameters
minimal_damage .1

The lowest allowed value is .001 because internally the number will be multiplied by 1000 and turned into an integer.

hmm the minimal damaje parameter would be a general parameter for all things in the game? Or each unit or building can have its minimal damaje parameter.

Let's try the simplest first. That was sufficient for Warcraft 2 or Starcraft Brood War. And there is an additional rule that would be more important but too complicated for now: damage upgrades are not affected by armor.

hmmm? how work that?

If your unit have 5 4 points of damaje and the foe 6 of armor, if you aply the bonus attack to your unit (1.5) this 1.5 extra damaje (5.5 in total) doesn’t be afected by the armor?

The foe is damajed in 1.5 (+ minimal) damaje?

And thanks, awesome!

Yes, but it won't be done now.
