DFD-R3: 237 vs. 925, 1003 vs. 378
#24
@reaperrr I would suggest that damage falloff with distance to target would be a better simulation of a shot gun in an RTS with the unit being closer doing more damage as more of the pellets would likely hit, random damage would still allow full damage at the furthest range which would be impossible against smaller targets.

Unconventional mods that almost no one makes, the mission progression will be useable to conventional and unconventional mods alike. In a conventional mod, the only useful implementation of random damage I can really see is some kind of chaos tank that works by luck and does wildly varying damage per attack. I've yet to see a compelling argument for random damage in any other useage case that isn't either unnessesary or better implemented in some other way. As I said previously, a wound doesn't need to be mortal when considering if an attack effectively "destroyed" a unit in real life, so shots to the arms or legs (depending on a soldiers role) would be equivalent to destroyed in RA2, stop giving that as an example as to why damage should be randomly applied to a target.

@Guest did you even read the ares feature set or the discussion in the request for remap overlay?
