In Response To: Re: Eternal X Final Candidate 2 (Forrest of B.org)

: Unavoidable, as the Pfhor weapons are their own ammo (well, there's some
: funky conversion between them going on via Lua scripting). Only
: alternative would be to have projectile fighters drop ammo only, and melee
: fighters drop staves that aren't usable as ammo... but then there would be
: a lot of unused staves lying around.

The other alternative would be to have melee fighters not drop anything, but I guess that would also raise some questions.

: It's just so that Hathor can refer to you on a first-name basis. She needs to
: be able to do so to develop the level of intimacy between your characters
: that I wanted. Notice how nobody else ever uses your name, or any other
: name for you? Even when speaking to each other about you in the third
: person. They just say "hello", "go do this",
: "good work" or "that was stupid" or "I'm going to
: kill you", or "our friend here" or some such in the third
: person. But only Hathor ever refers to you by name.

Not convinced yet, but maybe I'll comment after reading the whole terminal.

: I can't seem to reproduce that.

Neither can I, now.

: By design. It's an exploration level.

Still worries me, but accepted.

: Why do you say that?

It's either that or some kind of spacetime distortion going on. The raised platform with the enforcers looks like it should protrude out from the hull, but based on the view from the "windows" it doesn't.

: You don't.

I guess the white dot is just dropped enemy ammo, then. Could you add an elevator anyway, just so nobody goes mad trying to grenade jump to see what's up there?

: I don't think so. Does there need to be? Your oxygen is supposed to
: automatically recharge when you're in atmosphere now, so it should be full
: up by the time you're done with Dysmentria and headed in to Sahkmet, no
: matter how long you stayed underwater on Pfhoryngitis.

Verified; didn't notice that before.

: I'm still not sure why they even *go* underwater. They're not marked as
: unafraid of it... I think that means they should avoid it given the
: choice. But instead they follow you in... Did Drones do this in the
: original trilogy?

They definitely went underwater sometimes. That makes me wonder if there's even a way to make a flying monster (such as a Tick, also) avoid a liquid entirely. Are there any lava levels with flying enemies in the OT?

Also, even if they can be made afraid of water, the un-crusher could still push them under it. So it might have to go if you fixed the problem.
