Engine v.127, Media v.98, Changes to exploding vehicles

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 This patch changes the way that vehicles burn and explode: they will now not unexpectedly go out while burning fiercely. On each turn, a burning vehicle has a chance of burning more or less fiercely. Each active character in the vehicle improves the chance of the fire decreasing. The presence of explosive weapons, flamethrowers etc. in the vehicle makes it more likely to not only catch fire, but also for the fire to increase in ferocity. Cars will generally burn for longer than before, but explode less often. They can once again explode at very short notice, but only if burning at least moderately. Explosions will be larger if the vehicle has a lot of ammo and fuel in its tank or in cans. The patch also adds Ganthor's excellent new character face sketches to the in-game GUIs. Thanks again Ganthor! ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted May 12, 2010, 10:49 am Last edited May 12, 2010, 11:35 am by *sam*

Joel Autobaun Joels Bastards Darkwind Guru Deathrace Mafia Faction Group: Sinbinned Posts: 4,598 Joined: Nov 10, 2008 I'd like to petition that the Tanker be safer from explosion than any other vehicle with a 550 tank. Perhaps twice as "safe"(or half as dangerous when on fire). The whole Idea with a tanker is the reinforced tank will explode less often....surely less often than a regular 550 tank on a Lorry. ......................... vet northernsummer deathrce1 raceL1 deathrceL1 ww ped1 sssc paintball semiprocombat ped2 e2g gwextrav gwped combat1 paintladder elmsautumn gateautumn wv race1 combatL1 pvp1 pvp5 pvp4 zom pvp3 circuit1 pvp2 circuit2 circuit3 ss2fl67 slay2013 storm2013 geek triangle198,99,31 Posted May 13, 2010, 9:02 pm

Actually, the fuel in a vehicle doesn't currently contribute to the chance that it will explode, or the severity with which it burns, merely the effect when it does explode. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted May 13, 2010, 9:10 pm

Lord Foul .-^-HellRazors-^. Darkwind Guru Mutants Faction Group: Rules Council Posts: 3,543 Joined: Jan 12, 2008 Had one blow up last night, very nasty. An apache that was close by(maybe 30m) when the explosion occurred took heavy damage to top armor and minor engine damage. I'm sure if peds were close to an explosion like that, they probably would have been killed or lost a few body parts. ......................... vet race1 deathrce1 wv zom circuit1 pvp1 northernsummer community circuit3 paintball55,204,126 Posted May 13, 2010, 11:00 pm
