Water

Post by Darth_Z13 »

I've got a few questions...

1. Why can't I shoot underwater? How can I change this?

2. How can I stop units from losing life when underwater? *SOLVED*

#2. I heard somewhere (I think on Elmo's Naboo map thread) that there is no way to make it so units cannot drown underwater. Sorry :(.

If you're making an all-underwater map, I would ask Astute how he did that cool underwater effect for Manaan.

Why would I be mad at anybody (other than Pandemic)? And yes, I did figure it out here. I'm amazed no one else thought of it.

Food_Eater said he got his (wrong) information from your thread. Unless YOU didn't say it yourself, then I withdraw my blame from you =).

2...
1)Most weapons in SWBF2 seem to be lasers. A laser bolt is made up of energy. The bolt would spend its energy vaporizing water as it moves under water. It wouldn't go very for or would have almost no energy left when it reached its target.

2) I added more info to your topic.

Harpoons guns I know I can make. But the torpedo's won't work. I do know that you can use lightsabers underwater though. I wonder what the difference is...

I made a harpoon gun but it doesn't work underwater sadly. Unless I can figure out how to make guns fire underwater I'll have to make all weapons melee which I don't want to do.

Update. I have recently discovered that Droideka can fire underwater. I am currently looking into this recent development.
