Brasidas Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I downloaded 0.32 like two days ago, just before it went live. As the headline says, I threw a smoke grenade just after my Xenonauts exited the 'copter and it turned the grain field into a flaming inferno. First man I moved died in the fire, then I saved and exited the game, thinking "bug"... I've seen smoke grenades set thing on fire before, but this just seems extreme.

llunak Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Smoke grenades actually are fire hazards, and dry fields can rather easily become flaming infernos quickly, so even if this may seem a bit too much, I don't find it extreme and I still consider this a feature and not a bug.

Brasidas Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 A fire hazard perhaps, but not something on the level of a flame thrower. The point of impact might burst into flame, but the current level is just insane with an entire squad dying in the flames caused by their own protection. I would definitely call that a bug. So, if you don't intend to remove it or deal with it somehow, how can I switch off the flaming part of smoke grenades myself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabill Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I think you'd have to do it in the map prop spectres (or make it so the grenades don't cause any smoke to happen!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasidas Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Since I've no experience with this kind of thing, how would I do that? Go into the map prop spectres and disable the flame part? Not much point in smoke grenades not causing any smoke... Look, I don't get why you don't take this seriously? My entire squad died or would die in a smoke area 4x4 size or thereabouts, all of it instantly aflame. I usually play ironman - luckily not in this case, but such an event would have caused me to drop the game entirely if I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasidas Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 It's this kind of inferno I'm talking about. All happened at the end of the turn in which I threw my grenade. The first guy I moved, died in the flames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llunak Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It has actually nothing to do with grenades as such, there's a bug with smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
