Corporal Hicks Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I thought about it too, was gonna post a thread in the sugestion forum about it... Don't know if it's possible at this stage of development, but I would love to see flamethrowers in the game, come on!! Classic way to kill aliens!!!

Swe_Racoon Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Flamethrowers are planned, I'm pretty certain of it. Methinks they actually were in an earlier build, but were removed (for the time being) because they didn't work properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Yeah, they're definitely planned. There was a long discussion earlier about flame spread mechanics and such. It's probably the most complicated weapon to implement so it's taking a while but it's coming: http://www.xenonauts.com/flamethrower/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks they actually were in an earlier build, but were removed (for the time being) because they didn't work properly. Correct. They were bodged in. Plans are for proper flamethrower damage templates, which look awesome. There's a big thread on it if you search for "flamethrower" on the forum. If people want to go diving in the assets, they can look at the lovely art for them and their canisters. (Assets/Weapons/Ballistic). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swe_Racoon Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Actually tried searching for it, but with no result. Probably attributed to me being a daft mammal more than anything though Yeah, saw that art while going through the files. Once it gets in there methinks I might have to change the load-out on my assault troopers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar Pancakes Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I wonder if the firing animation is going to be a cone of damage with all tiles in between the soldier and the target tile taking damage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauddlike Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Have a look at the link I posted and click on the file Chris attached. It has examples of the template he is planning to use for the flamethrower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Flamer is still planned. Just we've not got round to it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauddlike Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I am looking forward to combining it with the indoor missions. Much more effective than harsh language in confined quarters. As long as your rookies have asbestos underwear on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
