Geno + Burrow = ?

What happens when you have a Geno flag and you run over a enemy tank who has burrow?

You kill the burrow guys - that's it.
I guess that means burrow becomes anti-geno?

As far as I can tell, kill "types" are determined by shot types. When someone is steamrolled (with BU or by SR), there is no shot, and thus the kill will not show as coming from G or SR or whatever the killer is holding.
This caused me some headache when coding the killLimits plugin.
So, my guess would be no, runnnig over a BU with G would not kill the whole team.

Optimism is just a milder alternative to denial.

It doesn't kill the whole team sadly. I thouht about it before, and tried it. It doesn't work.L4m3r wrote:As far as I can tell, kill "types" are determined by shot types.

Beware! I'm going to clone myself and spread those clones all over the world!

Trust me, many times I have had geno and simply wanted to run over a burrow guy and kill the whole team - but it doesn't work.A Meteorite wrote:You kill the burrow guy - that's it.

i think geno only is enabled through bullets, not running over things. try it, make a server with 3 bots, 2 red 1 blue (you), make burrow flag and geno, make the 2 bots just separte bzflag windows, make one have the burrow flag and just sit there doing nothing while you auto pilot the other window, then grab geno in main window and run over the standing still tank

or just grab a friend and try it...
Let me answer this question with a better question...
if you are on a 20 shot server and shoot 19 shots and grab Geno (before any of the shots die) do they become geno'd shots?
and if you fire that one last shot is it a geno shot?
No, Yes...
Here's the question of all time though...
Could you mod bzflag to say that all shots were geno?
(and I know the answer :-P)
