#4081

I don’t think that’s possible though.

#4082

Why it shouldn’t be possible? I can imagine that there is a possible way to code something like that, to make the window only break after a few shots and instead of some bullet holes the glass will take some cracks looking like spider webs. What do you think?

#4083

It depends on the type of glass surely?

#4084

Of course, but the point he’s making is that it would look more realistic. We don’t need to know what type of glass it is. It would look better than a) glass shattering and disappearing or b) splintering into fragments.

And it would be realistic. Depending on the strength of the glass, bullets would typically go straight through with minimum splash damage. It would take a few shots to ge the glass to collapse.

#4085

Wouldn’t anything but reinforced glass shatter almost completely, immediately?

#4086

Nope.

#4087

Source galss will generally take about 3 shots before fragmenting, where upon large chunks can be hit away individually.

#4088

Depends on the heath and fragility values, though- The default values don’t do that.

#4089

I think when soldiers are set on fire, they should run around like the L4D zombies, rather than crumping in place like the combine soldiers

#4090

you just don’t understand the crumping lifestyle…

#4091

Uh…if by anything but you mean safety glass and reinforced glass you mean every other kind of glass then yes.

#4092

Overwatch troops would generally flail around a bit trying to douse the flames.

#4093

yeah, that’s what i was referring to with the crumping remark

#4094

Oh, I read that as crumpling. Well, I still think it looks better for them to try and deal with the fire than running around like a… zombie.

#4095

I imagine most people aren’t inclined to stand still when they become engulfed in flames.

#4096

Red Faction had that, the guards would run around and panic until they died. It felt a little silly and cartoonish at times… but you know, it was really worth it when they ran when a sticky-bomb was planted on them. It made planting the bombs a personal goal.

#4097

Aren’t people will roll around the floor when they are burning?

#4098

Yeah, but then they’d be extinguished.
Which would be pretty awkward if the player didn’t kill them yet.

#4099

hey guy just a little suggestion ADD the weapon Fists :smiley:

#4100

…Oh wait thats a joke! I get it…LAWLS!
