Post subject:	Particles stop doing things...?
So I've run into a problem, and maybe someone knows what I'm talking about. After a certain period, particles fired from guns seem to not effect actors anymore. For example, if I shoot a blast from a shotgun across a long enough distance, it won't hit enemies anymore. The shotgun's particles will simply go behind the invading army. It's like I'm firing on friendly targets. This is especially annoying because I've made a weapon that relies on long-lived bouncing particles to do damage, but due to this issue, enemies remain unharmed in a room filled with these particles. There's a weird special case that has me scratching my head: if I fire these particles from a gun, I have problems with them harming actors, but if I explode these particles from a bomb, they behave just like I expect them to. If turned into a bomb, every single one of the particles collides with actors, regardless of team. In every case, particles collide with scenery. Here's the misbehaving material: Code: //// //Materials //// AddMaterial = Material Index = 192 InstanceName = MFFoam // Bounce = 0.9 Bounce = 1.5 Friction = -1.0 // Friction = 0.0 StructuralIntegrity = 10 DensityKGPerVolumeL = 5 GibImpulseLimitPerVolumeL = 75 GibWoundLimitPerVolumeL = 75 Priority = 1000 Color = Color R = 40 G = 80 B = 90 //// //End Materials //// And everything else: Code: //// //Rounds //// AddAmmo = Round PresetName = MF Spray ParticleCount = 3 Particle = MOPixel PresetName = Particle MFFoam Mass = 1 RestThreshold = 1000 LifeTime = 60000 HitsMOs = 1 GetsHitByMOs = 0 Color = Color R = 200 G = 200 B = 200 Atom = Atom Material = Material CopyOf = MFFoam TrailColor = Color R = 200 G = 200 B = 200 TrailLength = 3 Shell = None FireVelocity = 20 ShellVelocity = 0 Separation = 8 //// //End Rounds //// AddAmmo = Magazine PresetName = MFMag Mass = 10 HitsMOs = 0 GetsHitByMOs = 0 SpriteFile = ContentFile FilePath = Omega Industries WMD.rte/WeaponizedFlubber/MFMag.bmp FrameCount = 1 SpriteOffset = Vector X = -3 Y = -4 EntryWound = AEmitter CopyOf = Small Metal Hit WMD ExitWound = AEmitter CopyOf = Small Metal Hit WMD AtomGroup = AtomGroup AutoGenerate = 1 Material = Material CopyOf = Bullet Metal Resolution = 2 Depth = 0 DeepGroup = AtomGroup AutoGenerate = 1 Material = Material CopyOf = Bullet Metal Resolution = 3 Depth = 1 DeepCheck = 1 JointStrength = 200 JointStiffness = 1 JointOffset = Vector X = 0 Y = -1 DrawAfterParent = 0 RoundCount = 600 RegularRound = Round CopyOf = MF Spray AddDevice = HDFirearm PresetName = NNMRS Description = Among our stranger offerings, the NNMRS (full name Non-Newtonian Metallic Rubber Sprayer) sprays a shower of tiny metallic rubber particles that GAIN energy as they bounce!

All MOPixels have two new ini-properies: MinLethalRange and MaxLethalRange. These are float values [0..infinity] for making pixels lose sharpness over range (for shotguns etc.) MOPixels from guns lose sharpness after travelling ~(SharpAim+ScreenWidth/2)Random(MinLethalRange, MaxLethalRange) Other MOPixels e.g. gibs lose sharpness after travelling ScreenWidthRandom(MinLethalRange, MaxLethalRange). Default is 1.0 for both values. In short: Add Code: MinLethalRange = 5 // 2 = double the range (duh) MaxLethalRange = 5 to the MOPixel. B30 is still in beta but we will publish a list of all new ini-properies and lua functions when B30 is released.

Yes! Perfect, thanks! At first, that wasn't working for some reason, but then it did after I started hitting it with a wrench. Now I just gotta do that for all my other guns...
