Realistic fall damage

[Neosano]

When you fall in realistic you loose hp. But theoretically roll should save some hp.
Now go and script it!

[croat1gamer]

Cant be scripted.
Hardcoded.

[Neosano]

croat1gamer shut up. Can be scripted.

[croat1gamer]

Actually, you are right, forgot the GetKeyPress fuction. With it its partially possible, but only if you are holding the crouch key, if you just tap it before you receive the damage it wouldnt get realized that you rolled.

This:
OnPlayerDamage used with GetKeyPress, but again, it wont be 100% accurate.
Also, how much should it be decreased.

edit:
Hm, looks easy, i might try to do it.

[Neosano]

How can it be not accurate? You can do the roll only if you hit the ground. Same with damage. So if you press and hold roll buttons before the ground hit it'll work.

Some changeable %
I suggest 50% for default

It is already hardcoded, if you roll you take less damage already.

[Neosano]

Hacktank,nope. (Well sometimes I notice this, but no)

Fall damage is hardcoded and doesn't trigger OnPlayerDamage. kthxbai

[croat1gamer]

Oh, i though it counts as self damage.
Nvm then. Hardcoded, not scriptable.

[Neosano]

Awesome. Enesce gay.

Cut the spam. It's getting old.

How about this: The script takes the selfdamage, and then multiplies it by 1.(amount of % you want)
For example 1.50

If you would get 50HP selfdamage from the fall, it would add 50% so you will take 75 damage in total.

If you roll just before the jump, you wont recieve as mutch damage (HardCoded by standard)

Although this could be kinda annoying.. as when you shoot a bullet up in the air, and then the bullet hits yourself.. the damage would also be multiplied by 1.5
+
If the selfdamage script adds the 50%.. it will "think" you selfdamaged again and add another 50%.. which would be instakill lol..

In other words: The "selfdamage" script needs to know to stop after the selfdamage happened.

I just looked at the falling damage code and it should be proccing OnPlayerDamage, and upon testing it does indeed work.
I tested using the latest 2.7.0 beta, so I might have fixed it (which I don't remember) somewhere between current dedicated server and the beta version.

So are you guys 100% certain fall damage doesn't proc OnPlayerDamage?

[Gizd]

Checked it again and it does call it, yay! Works weird tho, result was set to 0 and when I fell I lost health and then got it back, but that shouldn't affect increasing fall damage.

Whoever manages to make it when the player is rolling, just just holding the keys, here you go:
