Zandronum

Basically, I was bored, and wanted to make a sudden death mode. Which I did. I then wanted the ability to play a ludicrously hard version (you take 10000x damage, the monsters don't), a ludicrously easy version (you do 10000x damage, the monsters don't), and whatnot. So I did. Eleven skills later...

There are two variables, oneshot_strength and oneshot_weakness. oneshot_strength controls how much damage you deal to monsters, and oneshot_weakness controls how much damage they do to you.

oneshot_strength values:

1. Normal: 1x damage done
2. Permastrength: 2x damage done
3. Beatdown: 3x damage done
4. Permaquad: 4x damage done
5. Curbstomp: 5x damage done
6. Rampage: 10x damage done
7. Surefire: 100x damage done
8. Bloodbath: 10000x damage done

oneshot_weakness values:

1. Normal: 1x damage taken
2. Anti-resist: 2x damage taken
3. Fragile: 3x damage taken
4. Weakness: 4x damage taken
5. Kamikaze: 5x damage taken
6. Martyr: 10x damage taken
7. Lemming: 800x damage taken

The old skills - these will also be the names used if you have the specific combination of oneshot_strength and oneshot_weakness.

1. Genocide: 10000x damage done, 1x damage taken
2. Massacre: 100x damage done, 1x damage taken.
3. Curbstomp: 10x damage done, 1x damage taken.
4. Permastrength: 2x damage done, 1x damage taken.
5. Normal (default): 1x damage done, 1x damage taken.
6. Pillage: 10000x damage done, 2x damage taken
7. Slaughter: 100x damage done, 2x damage taken.
8. Beatdown: 10x damage done, 2x damage taken.
9. Doubler: 2x damage done, 2x damage taken.
10. Squishiness: 1x damage done, 2x damage taken.
11. Extermination: 10000x damage done, 10x damage taken.
12. Minefield: 100x damage done, 10x damage taken. (yes the name sucks, get over it)
13. Fragility: 10x damage done, 10x damage taken.
14. Realistic: 2x damage done, 10x damage taken.
15. Weakness: 1x damage done, 10x damage taken.
16. Sudden Death: 10000x damage done, 800x damage taken.
17. Death Run: 100x damage done, 800x damage taken.
18. Kamikaze: 10x damage done, 800x damage taken.
19. Martyr: 2x damage done, 800x damage taken.
20. Kaizo: 1x damage done, 800x damage taken.

Names appear as <strength> + <weakness> if there's no specific name, or <skill> if there is.

I made this in an hour or two, so enjoy.

There is also a gambler mode. Set oneshot_gambler to 1 (and oneshot_gamblerdie to a value above 1, although it doesn't error-check), and every tic, a die with ${oneshot_gamblerdie} sides will be rolled. If it rolls 1, you will take 10000 times the normal (as in, before oneshot applies) amount of damage that tic. Gambler indeed.

And naturally, this mod massively accentuates the random damage done by monsters and weapons; a zombieman can do 30, 60, 90, 120, or 150 damage in one shot with 10x damage taken! For those of you who hate that, set oneshot_norandom to 1, and watch as that reason to cry bullshit evaporates.

Also, you can see what skill the game is currently at, even if you're spectating. Use oneshot_hidehud to (dur) hide it. Use oneshot_hud_x and oneshot_hud_y to move it around.

Out of curiosity, do monsters deal 1000x damage via infighting?

nop

also v2 - introduces the gambler mode

I take all credit.

Also if the description didn't make enough sense, basically it rolls 1d{oneshot_gamberdie} dice and if it lands on {oneshot_gamblerdie}, during that tic if you get shot you will die hands down. It is re-rolled every tic. So basically if you set it to 10 you have a 1in10 chance (roughly) to die instantly when shot.

btw there are currently two servers with this going

• :: "[BE] [Automated] New Jersey :: Oneshot Sudden Death AV.wad Survival (2 lives)" (IP: 68.168.212.106:15008)
• :: "[BE] [Automated] New Jersey :: Oneshot Martyr Doom 2 Survival (2 lives)" (IP: 68.168.212.106:15007)

yes, because giving idea === doing everything :V
by that logic, epic games takes all the credit for this mod

anyway, I fixed the trolling thing, as well as the online "Oneshot skill is currently Derp mode" display - using a weapon mod will bring the trolling back though, so be warned
also damaging floors, fall damage, and drowning will no longer instagib you, hooray

http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot3.pk3

edit: also no zombie wad for you so nyeh

v3 horribly broke the wad. You can't die now and when you are attacked you switch between negative and positive health counts and weird stuff starts happening.

lemme guess, you only played it online

it's not actually broken, it's just that health is sent as a short int online (as many things are), so you only see the lower 16 bits
the value's actually fine on the server

but anyway, the reason you got a billion health in the first place was so I could test the player safety thing, and I forgot to undo it

http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot3_1.pk3

Wehey I did map01 and some of map02 in Kaizo mode!

Gj Ijon, this seems like it could be a good addon for some servers to use with other WADs.

I lowered the 10000x damage multiplier to 800x - it'll still play out the same with vanilla monsters (>4000 hp and I guarantee nothing), but now only bfg rays can TK (and that's because lol no damagetype)
I added 2x damage multipliers, and you'll see 8 new skill levels - I'll update the first post to reflect this (edit: done)

messing with the weapons - right now, just the fist and pistol, to see how people react - not planning on doing anything radical, just adjustments to fit oneshot (for example, inaccurate chaingun so it doesn't dominate all weapons forever)

http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot4.pk3

edit: figures one tiny change breaks respawns - http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot4_1.pk3

Bfg rays do the damage type bfgspray so go make 4.2. You can find other random damage types that are preset in zdoom wiki as well.

yeah I know, it's just that I don't want to neuter any monsters that use A_BFGSpray for some reason

no one uses the slime, falling, or drowning damagetype, so that's no worry

no tk'ing anymore

also you can now see what the current skill and gambler die is - even if you're spectating



http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot5.pk3

get it now

Now that you've fixed the major bugs I would have suggested it for SNS but the voting already started lol.

Aww. This shit needs to get on SNS.

apparently resurrected monsters weren't affected by oneshot

http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot5_1.pk3

Played 5_1 on your HR2 server and resurrected monsters were still broken.

okay actually fixed this time

http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot5_2.pk3

edit: pain elementals are fucking faggots

http://ijontichy.lostsig.com/wads/oneshot5_3.pk3

How do i use this wad? Typing oneshot_skill doesn't seem to work
