Spider Hitbox


Recommended Posts

I'm not really sure if this is a bug or intentional. I was playing the Accountant 1 in the area with the spiders, and the spiders seem to be nearly impossible to hit with arrows or sword. Even right on top of the spider swinging the sword I rarely can hit it, and arrows not at all. It seems like the hitbox for the spiders must be very tiny.

I'm using 2.10 64bit linux version.

If I try to kill a spider I only use arrows since they're more precise, plus it means I can keep my distance from the bastards. But as for their hitbox I guess it depends on the spider itself. In my experience I've always been able to hit them (with arrows), but as to whether it's a one-shot kill mostly depends on their size and sometimes location of damage. But yeah they can be buggy, the linked post also mentions their ragdolls acting silly if you manipulate them.

Frankly any excuse to not use spiders is fine with me. :)

A word of warning, Agent Denton. This was a simulated experience; real LAMs will not be so forgiving.

if i have an arrow i prefer that but it cost one so if i am low on them i try it with a sword and then  you have a horizontal, vertical and forward move.

They all are difficult but forward MIGHT be easiest if you know how to handle that mouse move. i am not so good at it anyway.

 

the same with rats but they never byte and neither have sicknesses so i dont bother about them any more, actualy i tryed to feed bread but ate it my self after all. 🤢

      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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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?
