poison and venom not working

<< < (5/9) > >>

Botsareus:
Also, get rid of the shootval completely.

Shadowgod2:
ok this is confusing, firstly some bots don't fire poison after a while when hit, then when they do the poison doesn't take effect for like 90% of the time for a start up size and gets worse as the shooting bot gets bigger or the constant store value decreases from 4. 5+ seems to be reliable for a constant store, start up bot size. i also see no drop in poison when hit.
is this supposed to happen?

earlier i couldn't get it to work even with a 100 constant store.

Botsareus:
Poison works of a power calculation. If a shot is too powerful or is fired by a bigger bot then there are more chances to get a energy shot back instead of poison. That is why you need large amount of poison for it to work correctly. As far as the poison not going back down, may be you are creating it and it gets normalized too fast by a multiple of .98 and all you are seeing is a false positive.

Why are there so many brilliant words and phrases....Like Confabulation.

Botsareus:
I am going to go digging trough the code to see if the value passed trough poison effects the poisons effectiveness...
