autoturret + primary shocklance bug

[gnarkft]

I was playing on lowlands and a tech of the opposite team deployed a auto turret. I tried to destroy it with the primary of the shocklance of the ranger. I didn't took any damage. But it exploded when I fired a shockcore at it.

Other people have complained the primary doesn't do enough damage, too. You'll just have to use secondary fire for now, I suppose.

hehe, I figured that, but I submitted it as a bug because it didn't seem to take damage at all

It does 0 damage, I checked.

well it acutally does do damage but it only does damage when the shocklance ammo is really low, Me and Jago were fooling around with it one night and found that out.

That is one bizzare bug.
... 9 shots per cell or less? Maybe it's related to the "reload when too little ammo is present" thing not working


nine dammit fire, nine. must play ranger more often.

Well, what it really has to do with is where the shock projectile hits the other players body. Above the chest does ZERO damage. Below the chest does the appropriate amount of damage.

Sounds like a 1.5x multiplier needs to be in effect for scoring the ellusive "crotch shot"
