grenades in lift shaft
« on: August 02, 2018, 01:02:12 am »
Hello everyone.
I may be wrong.
I cannot throw grenades to lift schaft of airlock. I can only leave it on the floor through inventory.
Is it normal?
Thank you.

If we are talking about the lifts in general, there is a slight difference. I haven't really looked at the MCD records to verify, but I suspect the way TFTD differs from UFO is that most of the floor tiles used as lifts in TFTD are set up as solid tiles. That is the impression I have always had from them.

Also, in DOS UFO and TFTD, there was a bug that allowed you to throw objects directly up through the tile immediately above you, even through a hard surface like the roof of the Skyranger or Triton.

I tried to throw grenade to airlock floor in TFTD Twots. I can just leave it on the floor through inventory interface. Aliens can shoot through the airlock shaft from above or below. Thrown grenade could help but I cannot throw it to airlock shaft bottom level.

I am trying to throw grenade or bomb on lift floor. It's not allowed. I can leave it on the floor through inventory.
