Okay, i'm making the PK/PSI moves from all the earthbound/mother games, and i want to know, is there a way to make a move DECIMATE an enemy(kill it dead.), no matter WHERE it hits??

Edit: i'm making the psi moves as attacks used by a weapon

[MASTER_PROGRAMMER]

or is there at least a way to make a weapon hit all the body parts at once?

[D_E]

No and no.

Although if you take a typical EDGED attack and add a couple of zeros to all the numbers it becomes pretty darn deadly.

Hmm, I do have an idea.

Make the area of impact a very very large area (such as why Hammers > Maces, maces attack a larger area) and give it positively insane speed and penetration, and it will do blunt damage over the entire body, en masse.  I discovered this when trying to make a Monol from Monster Rancher.  A large, living wall that tries to crush you.  It launched my dwarves like rockets to explode in a misty cloud of viscera.
Those that didn't launch (and even blocks, sometimes) had almost every bone in their body shatter at once.  It was incredible.  Survivors made legendary doctors!

Thank you both so VERY much!!! 

Now i can add PSI and PK moves to dwarf-fortress........i'll call the mod.....Dwarf-Bound! 

[janglur]

Just remember to make it blunt, else it will sever rather than absolutely massacre.  It seems more logical (to me, anyway) to have it ravage the body with blunt force rather than just lop an arm off at a wrist flick.

[MASTER_PROGRAMMER]

i'll do that for all except PSI Beam.

PSI Beam is more of a stabbing move from what i understand....i mean, it shoots a small, concentrated beam at an enemy.

[janglur]

In which case, make the contact area 1.  This will make it blow clean through an enemy with absolute effect.

Hey, is there any way to DIG in adventure mode??

[SirAaronIII]

No, you can't. It has been said that you will be able to in the future, though.
On a side note, you ARE going to post this, right? It sounds... fun.

[MASTER_PROGRAMMER]

Yes. ^^
it will be the first mod i will ever post. 

It will be dubbed "DwarfBound".

Not only will it have PSI weapons, but it'll also have all the enemies, from EVERY eathbound/MOTHER game. ^^

Even the unused and debug enemies. XD

it will also have the items too....although i can't make status healing items, so i'll have to wait on those status healers....... >.>

[Bohandas]

This is a cool concept.

Even Giygas?

Fuck, that's one of the only things that still scares me.
