Death from above.
« on: November 20, 2010, 06:17:10 am »
So I was lurking around, and read somewhere alcohol explodes in the game. So I started musing about a 'mini-project' to make a pit over some magma that was covered by a retractable bridge. Then dumping some booze onto that bridge. Then I started toying with making some gem type items with the 'PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE' that could be packed in a crate in groups of 50+ or used to make gem windows. Then expose the crates or windows to magma. (Something like S.L.A.D.E.'s 'explode-o-cats' dropped from a great height.)

I already have a setup to flush invaders out of my fortresses main gate with huge sums of water under pressure stored z-levels above the gate. So I was wondering about using the explosive properties of booze in the game to a like affect. Then I had another question:

Tweaking the IMPACT_YIELD, IMPACT_FRACTURE, IMPACT_STRAIN_AT_YIELD values, has anyone ever made anything vaporize on contact?
