Knockout arrow?

Broadheads can be used to hit switches.

True, but the impact will alert nearby guards. I was thinking of something that can do that and knock out guards quietly I guess.

How about a throwable sticky mine that blows up or a sticky gas mine that knocks out. They can be thrown at walls and you press the detonator as guards walk near it, shredding them or knocking them unconscious. Or set up motion detection laser traps between doorways or walkways. This wouldn't really be too easy as you sort of have to case the area before the guards come strolling by.

There are already flashmines and explosive mines that the player drops along a guard's patrol route. (aren't there gas mines too?)

 

Anyway, sticking these things to walls would serve little purpose, as guards don't generally walk on the walls, since they're not aliens.

Do moss arrows trigger switches?

I rarely use this overpriced arrows. But the few times i used them, they did not alert nearby guards.

 

 

Slightly off-topic, but does anyone know a nice mission for training crate knockouts?

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
