Samsara - No longer under active development.

Just reduce its effectiveness on monsters its not that difficult to figure out -Huge damage in small area and lower damage done to the bigger area-. Make another weapon fill the role of boss melter just in case..

[Untitled]

nah, Redeemer also Forces Radius DMG. It wouldn't be redeemer without it. Check out Ijon's redeemer for a basic idea of how it works.

On another note, term said we don't get to know alternative slot VII until 0.31 is on the way, so you might as well stop asking right now.

[Cruduxy]

What does forceRadiusDmg have to do with what I said.. Having multiple A_Explode each with a different radius will cause closer targets to take more damage.. and having all explodes have at least 100 damage will make them kill any player caught if its forced damage..

Boss melter is any wep you can reliably use to kill bosses.. Like heretic's hell staff and doom's plasma rifle.

P.S. care to tell where I kept asking for it?

[Untitled]

Because you said "Make another weapon fill the role of boss melter just in case" which, the redeemer IS a boss melter. it ONE SHOTS CYBERDEMONS.

I mean, the slot VI will also be a boss melter (All slot 6's short of the TOZ-T or Firestorm are), but the Redeemer also does boss killing.

EDIT: Crap, this creates a broken thing where we can use redeemer to anticlimax Icon of Sin (Doom 2), D'Sparil (Heretic), Korax (Hexen), Snotfolus (Chex Quest 3) as well as other cinematic bosses that will be anti-climaxed in one shot of redeemer.

[Cruduxy]

If it one shots even bosses they obviously need to be resistant to it and have a real weapon replace it where you actually must fight them.. its what I meant :P

Oh well BFG one-shots mastermind and 2-shots cybers with skill.. Except you actually risk getting killed unlike killing them while drinking a cup of tea..

How about making redeemer into a ripper projectile and making it explode only when hitting walls and floors?

[Cruduxy]

Wow corvus is such a good music player- Fuuu hexen mage u suck a lot-

[Ijon Tichy]

How about making redeemer into a ripper projectile and making it explode only when hitting walls and floors?

wat

[Ænima]

How about making redeemer into a ripper projectile and making it explode only when hitting walls and floors?

That removes all the satisfaction that comes from nuking a Cyberdemon with a direct hit to the nuts.

[Cruduxy]

Unless it pushes the cyber with it all the way to the wall then explodes.. oh wait now its a B movie rocket instead of the redeemer.

Quick side note: in 0.3-test5 the LAZ can take down Chillax-sized waves of Revenants in one shot. Intentional?

[Armitage]

I support this allegation of Chexman's Laz Device being the most wanted device in the entire universe being a witness to this madness. He can practically solo Chillax! The scoreboard speaks for itself.

You don't need be skilled at all or know the traps, just run right into hordes and everything dies.

Well remember, Ancalagon is a Doom God, so number differences are exaggerated.

BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT
Yeah, the LAZ is kind of on the OP side.

Damage values:
Direct Hit: (Random(1,8)*100). Same as BFG9000.
Main Blast: Explodes for 896/512 Damage/Radius. (For comparison, a Rocket is 128/128)
Lingering Explosions:
6 Explosions of 192 damage at 4 tics per explosion,
8 Explosions of 160 damage at 4 tics per explosion, and
8 Explosions of 128 damage at 4 tics per explosion.

It's the Main Blast that's Overpowered I'd say. I'd nerf it to 224/512, maybe as little as 224/336.

[Untitled]

Sorry for double post, but have more LAZ destruction:
Part One:
[spoiler]


[/spoiler]
Part Two:

[/spoiler]

I'm going to go ahead and say it's overpowered.

[*ProjectAngel*]

My suggestions for the LAZ in its current state would be to either reduce the damage of the main blast or have the LAZ consume more ammo per shot.

And so, 0.3 is released. Or 0.30, whichever you prefer.

The biggest thing about this is now there's a whole bunch of additional cvars for use that adjust gameplay in interesting ways.
The advent of cvarinfo means that now the ZDoom playerbase can catch up with all the shenanigans the Zandronum players have been having for a long while, and Zandronum gets a whole slew of additional stuff allowing for more esoteric modes of play--or simply just boring ol' powerplay!
I've put out, like, six test builds and there were no problems, so does this mean this will be the very first build without a B release ??? ??? ?? (Probably not)

As always, thanks for playing. Onwards, to 0.31 and Unreal.

[Captain Kupo]

is it just me or is 0.3 broken?
it gives me a script error


Script error, "samsara-v.3-zd.pk3:cvarinfo.txt" line 60:
cvar 'samsara_cl_weaponhud' already exists

[-Jes-]

Nothing to worry about.
