Roxis, I allowed myself to include your grenade in the FMP mod collection.
However, I changed the tech tree a little to make it more in line with the rest of the mod, mostly the Dart Rifle segment, which already deals with putting aliens to sleep. I hope you don't mind.

Nice idea, though I always thought the difficulty in capturing aliens prior to the stun launcher was a good part of the game.

I'd like it if smoke could effect them like it effects our soldiers....

I think CP2020 had the "Hushpuppy" firearm. :)

"Hey, the Alien Commander is here, send me some Hushpuppies."  :D

More seriously, "Soporific Gas Grenade" would be nice.

Doesn't smoke do the same thing? Is this 35 damage one time, or leaving a cloud over a few rounds, or what?

As far as I've seen in the game, smoke only seems to affect YOUR troops, not aliens or civilians.

Not sure if this is a bug/glitch or if it was coded that way.

Thanks - no problems with this.

Also, Interesting Names that you guys have been suggesting.

"Knockout Gas Grenade"  8)

Also, I think Smoke does affect aliens.  When I have probed them if they were exposed to smoke, I thought they were taking stun damage.  But smoke is so slow acting, it seems like it is not really useful for knock out purposes.

Cheers, Ivan :D

Edit: also: Does the gas affect soldiers?  How about in armor? i.e. if the cloud lingers and my troops run in, will they drop?

Ivandogovich - like the small launcher, It's a one time hit so it doesn't affect anything after it goes off.

but be warned, like the small launcher, it's non-discrimitory ie it hits every one.

Awesome. Thanks for the info.  May be more like a "Flash-Bang" grenade then. :)

I'd guess it leaves the same type of residue as stun bomb then. Not a proper smoke cloud.

I think so, and thanks for the name idea - though I still haven't decided which one I will use.
