Planning on making a tackling QoL PR, need assistance.

Post by Tohg7. » #655797

I've wanted to make a tackle QoL pr since tonight, do you know where i can find the "If one-legged" or "If you have a T2 or T3 wound" statements in the code?

This is what i plan to add: "Being fat increases tackle power by 1 due to being heavy, being in shove-slowdown reduces tackle defense by 1 due to being off-balance, having a T2, a T3 wound on a leg reduces tackle defense by 2 and 3 respectively and having one leg reduces your tackle defense by 4 due to you for the most part being a sitting duck in this situation."

This PR would give tackle glove users more incentive to target legs instead of the head/chest.

this is just a balance change if you want to make a tackling QoL change make it so tackling only works with right click throw so I dont break my skull on a wall trying to toss something fast

to be fair I dont think the balance changes were a terrible idea and making the shoveslow the first part of a combo so your tackle is stronger would be cooler than the current "click on the person the instant you are in range"

If you want coding advice you might find it more easily on Discord
This is a preventative Forum User message to try and stop a perceived issue escalating before it ever really starts, and does not prevent the headmins from taking a different opinion and deleting my post. No formal action is being taken. No reply to this post is necessary. If you want to discuss the matter further, use forum PMs with me, but I have nothing else to say so I wouldn't waste the time.
