Summary

0003425: Flag to prevent Rail attacks from triggering "Impressive" medal

Description

When you connect a couple rail shots in a row, you get the impressive medal, which is perfectly fine.

However, when you have a weapon that fires rails constantly (a laser gun, or in QCDE, a lightning gun), you'll get a flood of "IMPRESSIVE" medals+announcer spam.

Could a flag be added perhaps in the rail function or even in the weapon to not treat the attacks as "hard to hit rails"? Something like "+DONTAWARDIMPRESSIVE" or something like that.

We use rail attacks because we need to spawn an instantaneous in-world trail/beam so that other players can see the lightning shaft.

Additional Information

Here's an example of how it looks/sounds whith all these medals :P

Notes
(0019243) Korshun (reporter) 2018-05-15 00:23	Is there already something like that for Accuracy medals? I have some flamethrowers that award tons of Accuracy medals for hitting the target.

(0019252) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2018-05-20 06:24	At the moment, there is no way to specifically prevent the impressive or the accuracy medals.
