Kill shot

[grävling]

I think that this 'has to be beyond a certain number of squares' is silly. It would be better if it was 'has to be in the pink square'. 'Has to be in the pink square but that has to be beyond a certain number of squares' makes sense as well, and keeps us from sniping with blasta guns and pistols.

But right now a new Sniper can line somebody up in the pink square of their starter rifle and be told that this is too close for a kill shot.

Also you need to decide if aiming and making a kill shot can stack. Right now if you press Kill Shot, you cannot get an aim, while if you Press Aim, you can then press Kill Shot. Can you let us do both, in any order, or else only can do one of these?

grävling - I will check over the optimal ranges for the weapons and see if the distance (4) is too far.

Aiming and doing a Kill Shot are mutually exclusive. Kill Shot forces 1 shot, while Aim increases the shot count.

Then you need to change the code for greying out buttons so that when you press one, you cannot get the other. This works for 'kill shot excludes aim', but not for 'aim excludes kill shot'.

Does this make sense?

Hey fallen, This morning, I have been able to do this when attacking with my sniper character :

• Aim ; gave me a second shot. Yay.
• 1^st Shoot ; take that you fennian $cum.
• Kill shot ; what the hell ? AIM + KILL SHOT ?
• 2^nd Shoot ; well, take this one too I guess and yes, with Kill Shot bonus, as weird as it looks.

I don't believe that I should be able to use it this way. Am I right ?

I got multiple kill shots when using an assault rifle.

Are there supposed to be any weapon restrictions on what guns you can use to make a kill shot?

- Kill Shot reduces the weapon's speed to 1. I have tested with multiple types of guns to be sure. If you are getting more than one shot you are either pressing Aim or tapping really fast or ... ?
- I will fix Kill Shot + Aim backdoor, thanks.
- No weapon restrictions on Kill Shot.

fallen I only had the multiple Kill Shot by shooting without it the first time THEN enable it on the following 0PA shots ; if Kill Shot is disabled when using Aim, then the problem is gone for my sniper character I believe, although it might still be there when using an assault rifle without aiming (like it seems to be Grävling's case).
Kill Shot should, like Aim, be disabled if you use the other option or start shooting without it, which does not appear to be the case.

Agreed ... looks like there are a couple of holes in the button-disabling-setup which I will fix today! Thanks!

You explained this perfectly. Better than I did. Thank you.
