Question about combat system.

Post by McbrittleTates »

I'm attacking this guy, and I'm doing 0 damage, but hearing a *cling* sound. Is his armor eventually going to break, or am I just absolutely doing nothing?

edit: nevermind, his armor just broke.

For future reference, it is impossible to tell whether you are hitting his armor hard enough to deal damage to it.

If you hear that clank sound, you're not even touching his armor.

Wrong. What Oddity said is right.

So you're saying, if you shoot an armored guy with a sling, and it does 0 with the clang, it's not possible to tell if t is impossible to tell whether you are hitting his armor hard enough to deal damage to it?

When you shot someone in armor it makes a clink sound unless it actually damages the player. You can't tell whether the armor is damaged or not. Had you said "you're not even touching his health" or some other similar form you would have been right.
