Falling Damage
2001-09-16, 11:16 PM #1
Trying to reduce falling damage to 25% of normal, and drowning damage to 50% of normal. I did this in kyle.cog:

damaged:
if(GetParam(1) == 32)
{
call make_bubbles;
damage = damage * 0.5;
}

else if (GetParam(1) == 64) damage = damage * 0.25;

ReturnEx(GetParam(0));
Return;

I see no difference in damage. Am I totally off track?

Just close by the track.

Add this just below damaged:

damage = GetParam(0);

And the "ReturnEX()" should be like this.

ReturnEx(damage);

That should do.

Falling damage worked, but drowning damage didn't get cut in half

Code: 
damaged:
   damage = GetParam(0);

   //cut drowning damage by half
   if(GetParam(1) == 32)
   {
     damage = damage * 0.5;
     call make_bubbles;
   }
   
   //Cut falling damage to one quarter
   else if (GetParam(1) == 64) damage = damage * 0.25;

   ReturnEx(damage);
   Return;

Uhm... Flarestorm, it does halve damage for drowning, I've just tested the posted part of your COG, since I couldn't see why it shouldn't.

There's nothing wrong with the cog, try placing this.

PrintInt(GetParam(0));
PrintInt(damage);

In that damaged section to see how much damage you get by natural and how much by the cog controlled value.
