Oh, not reducing their effectiveness, but decreasing the mass and keeping the sharpness the same. I think that should still give you plenty of pain with less terrain damage. I could be wrong, but it worked for an MOPixel with 0.01 mass and 200 sharpness shot at 200, it rarely travels more than 7 or 8 pixels into sand while retaining plenty of killing power. Shook wrote: I don't really get what you mean by phasing emitter, though, and how it should be used... I misspoke, apparently it's not an emitter. I'm talking about the effect Roon3 got with his inaptly named railcannon, how sharp MOPixels can go through terrain without harming it. I think the key there is setting the priority of the material to 0. Roon3, feel free to correct me.

I could be wrong, but it worked for an MOPixel with 0.01 mass and 200 sharpness shot at 200, it rarely travels more than 7 or 8 pixels into sand while retaining plenty of killing power. That was kind of my point, i want the particles to be able to smash, plow, blast and burn directly through practically every actor that isn't ZOMGWTF overpowered, making the blast exceptionally dangerous to be near. The unfortunate side effect is the classic star-pattern in the ground, which i partially hid with the ground-eating MOSRotating. *Incredibly sneaky idea* You mentioned Priority 0 material in Roon's railgun? I just had this here idea, that if i made the particles have 0 Priority, they'll be quite dangerous, and yet harmless to the terrain. I wonder how it'll fare through extremely tough terrain, though... To the testing board! (Yeah, i type "real-time") Edit: Hmm, apparently it wasn't simple as that, i'll have a closer look at Roon's sneaky coding... Edit2: Ahh, i see now. Unfortunately, it's not usable in this manner. >.>

Re: [WIP] The Pelian Army *Update: March 6th*
Eh, you could like use just 2 different particles in the explosion to get the desired power of the blast and harm the terrain slightly.
High mass particles mixed up with low mass, high sharpness particles. Take a look at the vanilla grenade, those particle are quite poweful to pierce most targets and yet they dont make those pierced lines in the terrain.
And that phasing explosion thing is possible, but its uber hacky to do, even unreliable maybe. (Spawns actor with a 360' gun and another actor so the first actor will fire his gun.)

You dont seem to know how do the phasing even works, do you now? Its just the Seperation variable you can find on a Round object code. This means you need a gun to be fired to use it. And to fire a gun, you need an actor to do that. Seperation determines the area from the guns muzzle where the particles are scattered. If you have a 100 particles and a 100 Seperation, it'll look like a laser and it will phase through the first 100 pixels. Simple as that.

@Rocksonic: Dunno, you tell me. =P @numgun: 'kay, got a reasonable blast without the MOSRotating, but it's still not as good as it used to be. >.> Also, got a newer version of the Assault Robot... Complete with rageface, angry spikes/antennae and big, fat fists to bash your face in with. He looks fairly tough, if you ask me.

Good, but his legs need some detail. Make them look like robot legs. They just look weird now.

Re: [WIP] The Pelian Army *Update: March 6th*
Fork you it's supposed to be bigger than a human. >.> (Still able to use normal guns effectively, though)
@Flammablezombie: They look like robot legs inside, you have to remember that it's armored like hell. ;o Did slap on a bit of senseless detail, though. And no, there's no attached armor on the legs.

Re: [WIP] The Pelian Army *Update: March 6th*
Not to be mean or anything, but it looks like he has tree stumps for legs, maybe make them less thick. Overall it looks fine except the legs.

Re: [WIP] The Pelian Army *Update: March 6th*
Now it looks better. The legs could use a small detail or something that wouldnt make it look too plain. Then the other important thing is the feet. You need to make those better for sure since the current ones in that pic look rather non-existant. Not sure what would fit it, but its certain it need feet! other than that, the top part looks badass like it should. Maybe add tiny detail or extra armor to the arms, but other than that its great!
