Thinking about it could you give each res 2 damage radii, 1 for each side of the aleph. That way you can simulate current Res's (make both values the same), have 1 sided res's and anything inbetween. You could even create a suicide res that only hurts your side (Jimmy Bomb?).

Adding variable timings for each res would be nice too.

The way I see it, if you're going to poke at the res code then why not make it as flexible as possible? Of course, I have no clue how hard any of this would be to do.

Suck, not Blow - with no warning flash.

"What the hell is happening? where's all the air going!"
"It's MegaMaid! she's gone from Suck to Blow!"

that was all I could think of when I read that. I had to stop reading the rest of the thread and post that

The 'blastPower' property for missiles isnt shown in ICE and is always set to 0 in all cores because the code doesnt handle it correctly: the explosion actually happen but deal no damage "server side" so clients see damage but on next "update" it's cancelled so this yield some odd visual effect (mainly your hull/shield go down for a very short moment).

Can we get the res animation to be a little different as well? That way the potential victims know which res is being fired so they can try to rush the aleph instead. Oh man this is gonna be fun! /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

The code change has been tested and submitted for R4.

A new ICE (version 3.2) is also available and will be updated shortly in the Downloads section here.

Meanwhile you can get it here: http://drooky.free.fr/dracula/ICE32.zip

Not atm, point is that opposite side doesnt know which type of resonator was fired. The anim is the same and on both sides (even if one side wont explode).

we need dual fire reses that fire both to really screw with people.

Hrm. Then I would really advocate that a one-sided res only maim the victims. I just think it's too big of advantage to pod everybody on the other side so you can just walk in and mop up. If that's still the case then I suggest that it be super expensive (like 2x-3x more expensive than regular res).

Price, power and availability is a "core" thing. I just provide the 'option' to allow such resonators. After this, it's up to core developpers to add & tune them in their core or not.

about guys rushing the aleph, the answer is prox mines G_G either way it´s god damn powerful on concept. can you fire multiple resses at once? with this upgrade it might be worth it, i don´t know if you could do it as of now
