Summary

0000775: Non-projectiles that use A_Explode do not respect DamageType

Description

Actors that do damage via A_Explode, and are not projectiles or bulletpuffs, will not respect the DamageType assigned to them. For example, creating custom ExplosiveBarrels.

Steps To Reproduce

Use example wad. Get hurt by a rocket, a message will appear letting you know that you entered a custom painstate. Then get hurt by a barrel. The message will not appear, meaning that you have not entered the custom Pain.Explosive painstate.

Additional Information

This may or may not be the fault of the modder. I can understand if DamageType was only intended for projectiles and puffs, but I feel that modders would greatly benefit if DamageType was extended to work for other actors to. SST's barrels are supposed to do DamageType "Rocket" but this doesn't work.

Notes
(0003270) TIHan (reporter) 2012-04-15 02:40	Does this happen online, or offline? Or both? If offline, does this occur in GZDoom 323, and does it happen in the latest ZDoom?

(0003275) unknownna (updater) 2012-04-15 06:03	This is a ZDoom issue. It also happens in SVN build 3563.

(0013407) Dusk (developer) 2015-09-05 01:55	Still happens in ZDoom - needs to be reported there.
