Getting 1-shotted

[Krougal]

Ok, so this has happened twice. The first time I mentioned in another thread, I thought it was a fluke.

It just happened again. A run of the mill "Bo" zombie got me from behind. Full health. Bam. Dead.

Is this supposed to be a thing?

And again. Same place (because I cleared it and then initiated quest in POI) different circumstance.

Whacked door off @%$#ter with a powershot because I expected a zed there, businessman behind it 1 shotted me. What gives???

And of course to add insult to injury it causes the quest to fail for leaving the area. This @%$# needs to be fixed!

Shouldn't be a thing; I'd suggest filing a bug report, but you've been at least talking about modding the game lately - if you're not running any sneaky edits, then, please do file one ..

Well I am running lethal headshots. I thought that was supposed to apply only to weapons so that would mean player.

Would be kinda funny if I am getting headshotted by zeds. I don't recall this happening in A19 or prior. 

Come to think of it, it hadn't happened before installing this modlet either.

Sounds like it must be your mod, then.  Try uninstalling, and see if your experience changes.

Nope. Lethal headshots works both ways. You can headshot insta-kill zeds, and they can headshot insta-kill you.

Well, that was deceptively simple;

1) install mod to get ganked

2) get ganked

3) ???

4) profit ...?

Sure, sounds like a stupid mod, but you installed it ...

This is why I don't like using other peoples modlets, they often have unintended side effects.

It's still worth it, just need to keep my head haha.

I imagine if I add in a specific set xpath for the zeds after the generic line it would take care of that.

Or find a less generic filter. This is the actual code:

	<append xpath="/items/item/effect_group/passive_effect[@name='EntityDamage'][1]/../.">
		<passive_effect name="DamageModifier" operation="perc_add" value="150" tags="head"/>
	</append>

Nothing to see here

yeah, this is why I go into my configDump folder and look to see what my code is actually doing to the file.  That was how I found out one of my lines of code was modifying power attacks when I didn't want it to.

Ahhhhhhhh! I didn't even know that was a thing, I found it though. Thanks for the tip. 

My favorite Notepad++ plugin, compare and life is easy.
