Head Banging

[fofofo21]

Grabbing someone + head targetted + Click Table/Wall = Banging their head on clicked object.

grabbing someone + groin targeted + click on square behind you = wedgie

grabbing someone + groin targeted + click on square behind you = wedgie

i like this idea better, make it cause slowed movement until they dislodge it like embedded objects

[Jacquerel]

if you type *headbang your sprite should bob up and down on the spot, like being without gravity but faster

We're actually trying to get rid of grab intent, so adding more stuff to it seems unlikely.

Clunky, and ANCIENT shitcode, like, prehistoric, a dinosaur programmed this stuff while stressed about the big rock falling from the sky.
Like, some of grab code is so bad it is just flat out -wrong-, for example: one section of grab code tries to find the grab object inside of a number...
Numbers, quite obviously, do not contain grabs, this section of code is the section that allows you to resist out of a grab while attempting to move (eg: if you moved or tried to move at all you'd have a small chance to break away, because you're writhing out of their hands), and it's been broken this entire time.

So instead of reworking it you decided to scrap it all together?

good shit boys good shit.

It's rotten to the core.
the concept of grabbing, if done correctly could probably be salvaged.
but the code is far better off with being removed and redone, with the redone being if someone can do it right.

[lumipharon]

but there are an assload of things that will be utterly fucked if you just gut grabbing without having a replacement.

[Deitus]

i mean i guess i can see why you would want to remove it if it is badly coded but i would have to agree and say make sure you have something that replaces it before you do it since its an important part of a lot of game concepts

[Zellion]

I think help intent is pretty fucked too, can we get on removing that please?

GOD FUCKING HELP YOU IF YOU AREN'T ON HELP INTENT IN MAINT.

[PKPenguin321]

you can already basically do this.
grab -> aggro grab -> table = tabled
grab -> aggro grab -> throw into wall = wallslammed
fun fact, if you alternate between these as fast as possible, you can chainstun and kill somebody with this alone. i've done it to break out of permabrig once

When I read the title, the first thing I thought of was this:



I'll totally support that

[Super Aggro Crag]

when i read the title i thought it had something to do with retardeds smashing their heads against airlocks

Did you guys actually not understand that "trying to remove" meant we were looking for a replacement or are you just getting mad for fun?

[Super Aggro Crag]

i'm not mad calm down kor

[TechnoAlchemist]

I'm very upset

[kazeespada]

We could replace grabbing with click dragging. Click and drag a bro your pulling to a table, and after a second, they will be pushed up onto the table. This changes nothing from table grabbing, since increasing your grip to aggressive takes 1 second(BYOND only allows 1 verb per second).

[Luke Cox]

Removing grab intent with no rework or replacement is literally the single most retarded thing I have ever seen coderbus propose, ever.
