Alpha 6 Discussion

@Sherlockkat Like zxc says, you'd be done for! Some have died this way on earlier floors, one of the dangers of completely destructible terrain that can also collapse and/or be repaired by engineers (the latter is how new players are occasionally permanently entombed in walls--well, I say "new" but it almost happened to me once as well ).

but K nerfed it in Alpha 6

From your point of view it was a nerf; from mine it was correcting a mistake since it was intended to work as it does now (thank you for finding it)

And Sherlockkat had the most powerful launcher currently in the game, enough to blow through anything. There are some even more destructive launchers, but you can't find them yet.

Maybe I found it and 'reported' it, but not before

Spoiler

I won about 10 games with that method

I must have been very lucky . I didn't know I had the most powerful launcher in the game. It was just an unidentified prototype. I whipped it out after I had entombed myself trying to do some renovation work on access. In my defense, my original game plan was to actually reach the back-exit and rely on the fact that I was very, very powerful hacker (look at my peak state) to carry me through.

Oh I know, and that's fine; and what alpha's all about . You should've seen the crazy stuff people were doing with Alpha 1 before I had properly restricted the fabrication system. Imagine traveling with dozens of Hunter allies

The hacking would've worked, yeah. And even though that launcher's powerful, next time check its matter consumption and you'll realize you wouldn't have been firing it at everything you see, anyway
