Custom Map #230: Watch the World Burn. By: planetfall

I had the same type of bug, but in a different location. In that case, though, I was nullifying a RunnerFlamethrower.

So far it's a really good fight. (Will have to resume tomorrow when I have more time.

However I seem to have found a minor graphic bug. The attached screenshot shows the beam from my nullifier remaining after nullifier destroyed stationary flamethrower with the aid of a wall. (Flamethrower flame and nullifier beam were on the precise same line.)

(edit) This did go away when I restarted from my save.

I've seen this as well. I'm not drawing the beam though, the nullifier is. I've noticed that some effects persist permanently if the unit they are attached to goes away. For example, if a runner stuns a unit, and then you destroy the unit in the editor, the "stunned" animation continues to play until you reload.

In short, we should probably pester Virgil about this.

I thought you could only snipe them... ?

[TLMike]

Well. The Nullifier was also targeting a Runner Nest and the RunnerFlamethrower walked into range. Gave me two PZs--one for each. I thought it was strange.

[planetfall]

Huh.
Will investigate this...

[TLMike]

Well, the Line is gone now that I've reloaded the save. But, the second PZ is still there. Functional, too. I don't think there should be one there, though. If it helps, I'm using ver 1.80 of the game.

Ahaha.... oh, this is embarassing.

Spoiler

For whatever reason, CONST_CREATEPZ and CONST_NULLIFIERDAMAGES aren't turned off for napalm cores until a couple frames after they spawn.

The beam doesn't appear now either. Unfortunately, now I need to restart the next map if I want the one line of code I added to take effect in the version I upload. And I was doing so well, too... grumble grumble...

Does the next map happen to be named "Foxglove"?
I have a feeling that's the name of one of your upcoming maps.

Um... no.
The reference is lost on me, sadly.
(Googles it)
Oh, that's good. That is VERY good. And it is indeed an excellent fit for the next map...
