Then I'd also like the "looks: almost dead" added somewhere there. :D

but no numbers, just 'light', 'heavy', 'critical' damage or sth.

... based on percentage of the targets health.

- light = 0 - 10 %
- medium = 10 - 30%
- heavy = 30 - 60%
- critical = 60% +

etc

Actually Bloax had the best idea so far:

<+Bloaxor> ![2/3]: If you hit something and the message ends with !, that means you did 7-17 damage. !!: 18-35. !!!: 36-71. !!!!: 72-143. !!!!!: 144-287. !!!!!!: 288+; and so on. Yikes!

(damage after armor)

An alternative could be telling more about the percentage roll resulting from a shot.

Perhaps it should tell :
- 0-50% : Glancing hit
- 50-150% : Hit
- 150%-200% : Perfect hit

And as an option, tell 'no damage' if there is neither hp or stun damage applied. At least you'll know if you've been simply unlucky.

This is possible in 2.9. You can change torso (or any other part if you are crazy enough) based on lost hp.

Yeah, but I was referring to Fallout and the text console.

quite a lot of ruckus for something that is supposed to work by dumping it into the base folder the piratez mod comes with and then running OpenXcomExPlus29.exe instead of OpenXcomExPlus.exe

Sorry, I wasn't for sure if that was all I had to do or not, and was getting irritated by the fact that no one explained this.  Thanks.

By the way, semi-related, is there a way to make my pirates invincible, or at least close to it?  Like some sort of code to edit or something like that?
