Dui Mauris Football Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 A simple idea, and a use for all of this new speed: A block that, on contact, deals damage based on it's speed. That's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ManTheMister Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Don’t all blocks do that? they just break in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dui Mauris Football Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 Well, not quite, because unlike other blocks, the harder it hits, less damage is taken and more is dealt. Other blocks don't deal contact damage like this, as far as I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lurkily Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 What about the spikes? I haven't really messed with them a lot, but they are listed as a weapon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Garheardt the Black Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Spikes are less useful for ramming than Heavy blocks with high HP. They don't do enough damage and break too easily. All the melee weapons are fairly high risk, fragile, high tonnage weapons with little payoff. Collision damage can be quite high and pretty fun to mess with, but so long as structures have infinite mass and don't suffer collision damage, it's not viable as a weapon to build around. All the weapons will benefit from an update, probably around the same time as the drone dueling arena concept. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lurkily Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 What I mean to say is, they would make a good candidate for this weapon. Prevent damage from impacts in their cardinal direction, and scale physics damage to velocity and impact direction. Eliminate regular damage altogether. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
