Mod Talk CA vs. CA+, etc.

[Baker]

What is the difference between CA and CA+? Is it just the green team plus the EFF command and some bronzing?

I know this sounds like a dumb question.

I always thought CA+ was maintained by Rook until Bam's comment that CA+ is closed source where he is recommending CAx.

has all the whatnot and soforth

yes, i helped with ca+, but since its closed source, i recreated CAx (or ca++) without using mungo's original code. Though much testing is needed, as this mod never got fully tested/bug free...

Biggest difference is CA+ maxes RL DMG to 100. in old ca mod it does the correct damage

Then it is not true quake if it puts the RL damage to 100.

maybe you could elaborate on that for us.

Normal Quake rockets do a random amount between 100-120 damage per rocket according to Tical.

[tical]

seriously just go to shmack 26002 and play practice mode when u hit someone it displays damage

rockets are clearly over one hundred i promise

Nevermind that, heres the fucking code itself

void() T_MissileTouch =
{
	local float	damg;

	if (other == self.owner)
		return;		// don't explode on owner

	if (pointcontents(self.origin) == CONTENT_SKY)
	{
		remove(self);
		return;
	}

	damg = 100 + random()*20;

Take note of that final line there... 100 damage + an amount that maxes out at 20.

if (other.health)
	{
		if (other.classname == "monster_shambler")
			damg = damg * 0.5;	// mostly immune
		T_Damage (other, self, self.owner, damg );
	}

Thats for all you sp people

	// don't do radius damage to the other, because all the damage
	// was done in the impact
	T_RadiusDamage (self, self.owner, 120, other);

That however is the most important line, it says if theres a direct impact then do 120.
