PC general Questions about A18

Now I get it: The Demolisher was in this kind of ragdoll moment when he was lying on the floor, looking like he was dead.

He was in constant Shotgun Turret fire so I thought he MUST be dead. Actually then he was still really alive and kept exploding.

So you say: I just have to bring his HP to 0 and then any countdown is directly vanishing?

Guess that s where I have to get the AP Ammo, I guess they are especially made for them.

 
Another questiosn:

1.) What does it mean when a Zombie is blinking on the radar?

This is of course just the case when doing a Quest to clear stuff:

Then Zombies are red on the minimal and some of them are sometimes blinking - what's that?

2.) I have a pistol that does 52 damage and I have handguns 0/5.

Then I increased handguns to 5/5. Now the pistol still does only 52 damage, but it is stated that I now get a 50 % damage increase ...? So where is that increase?

3.) is Rad remover worth it? I mean I get what it does ... but weapon mod slots are scarce and there are so many good things to put in. Therefore my question is basically:

Is the Rad Regeneration SO HIGH that it would justify using the remover on a weapon, where it not even has a usage all the time (as Rad zombies are the least one that you encounter).

So I have an AK-47 with 80 DMG that also kills Radiated Zombies in 2 seconds. Now if I would shoot on them 1x and then leave them for 1 minute, I guess that shot is healed. But of course I never to such thing and head straight for the kill, so if I focus on a Zombie, would this even make a difference in killing them? I actually can not believe it is worth it, as I may take down a rad Zombie in 6 shots and would it only be 5 with the mod or what? Like I said, it is dead in 2 seconds nevertheless.

4.) I tried to increase the Mod Slots of Ghilie Suit Hood to 4 (as it is with other helmets - otherwise with 0 mod slots the Ghilie Hood is pretty useless, as you would have to carry a 2nd Head Piece all the time anyways to have your light with you).

But when I go in game, then it is still at 0 (except colour slot). Did I do something wrong? I just made:

<passive_effect name="ModSlots" operation="base_set" value="4"/>

5.) The sad thing about Ghilie Suit is that you cannot wear College Jacket anymore and as it is 10 % more walking speed this is just superior to everything. Therefore I tried to migrate that effect over to Ghilie Suit by adding 5 % of walking speed to both parts, but it did not work. I looked at College Jacket and after the Hypothermal Resist there is the line with the Walking Speed. I added that line to the Ghilie Outfit at the same position and made:

<passive_effect name="RunSpeed" operation="perc_add" value=".1"/><display_value name="dRunSpeed" value=".05"/>

It is not displayed in the window, but it works - as setting it to .5 will greatly increase speed, even if you dont see it. So I just want to report here that it seems to be a bug that it will not show up, even if there is a line "diplay_value name"

Red dot blinking could just be the zombie getting out of and in range again.

Your own damage bonus is not shown on the weapon. I think it might be shown in your character stats, not sure.

 
Rad Remover is good if you melee. Keeps them from regenning, so you can punch them out.

On guns, I'm starting to think it isn't worth it, as I can shoot them faster than they can heal.

Going to have to check that out.

(not many things you CAN put in the steel knuckles anyway)

 
A line "diplay_value name" won't work since "display" is misspelled. Naturally I don't know whether you only disspelled here in the forum or also in the code.

A lowest quality ghillie suit should have 1 mod slot not 0.

Rad remover is almost useless in some situations. I once started a test game and turned on hit points to actually see how fast their regeneration really is and it was only relevant if you give the zombie time off. If you keep concentrating your fire on single zombies until they are dead, regeneration won't make much of a difference.

Still, shooting at a glowy that gets one heal tick in before being killed (and I would guess usually he gets at least one) often means that a bullet more is needed. So however small it is, a rad remover gives the equivalent of a small damage increase against glowies, and we all want mods that give damage increase :wink-new:

Rad remover is great if you have a horde base with lots of traps. Shoot any glowy from afar and they will get damaged by the traps like everyone else. Also if you use dart throwers with their relatively low DPS.

How do you misspell "misspell"? That's either the greatest pun I've seen for some time or the greatest typo I've seen in a very long time. :-)

 
*A line "diplay_value name" won't work since "display" is misspelled.*

That misspell ist just as I wrote the extract from that line by hand - the copied line is of course copied and it shows the real line. And there is no misspell so this cant be the reason - does this mean it is bugged then and can never show off?

*A lowest quality ghillie suit should have 1 mod slot not 0.*

But as Ghilie Suit is tagged as clothing and not as armor it can never have a quality and therefore it will also always have the same equip slot amount. And the hood indeed has 0, the other 2 have 1 (in every case + 1 color mod slot).

Or is there a skill to increase quality of clothing? I guess it is static and can never be changed normally (and seemingly also not by code editing).

Lots of stuff can go wrong in modding. I don't have time to test it myself at the moment, sorry.

And again sorry, I always thought ghillie suit was a replacement for military armor, never actually tried it out myself.

 
New question is:

How do I fly around with the camera?

Here is the video guide:

It tells me to press P in debug mode and then press the button right of P, which is [

But not for me: The button right of P is Ü and it does not work.

So what now?
