Stun weapon damaging terrain
« on: August 19, 2014, 04:41:57 pm »
I've noticed something weird going on when using one of my mods.

I've created a stun weapon that *doesn't* have an area effect. It works great. But I've noticed it destroys terrain. Which seems kind of strange. So what gives? And what now?

I know, vanilla game doesn't have single-target stun firearms. I guess the guy/gal wrote the relevant code probably didn't have to worry about such weapons. But what to do now? File a bug report, even though this happens in a modded game?

Seems like an old bug reemergent... this was happening at some point in 0.9, stun damage destroying terrain (and items. and stunned aliens. and stunned XCom agents). Definitely a bug since such a thing cannot be modded.

My stun rifle makes holes in buildings too. I never noticed any changes of this behaviour.

Well, it was the same in UFO Aftershock, which was rather funny... :)
