Playing with /ts rocks! It makes the full power shots a lot harder.

this shit is allowed? correct me if i am wrong but afaik i know worms exists since 1995 and i always have been able to do fullpower shots.
its funny we are not allowed to play hysteria with banana bombs instead of nades, but of course it is accpeted to eleminate an classic gameplay mechanism not only from wa but also from the entire series.

I fully support /ts as a rule for BnG.

We should all really use this.

I've suggested /TestStuff be enforced for bng multiple times now, it's a no-brainer. Just follow the links in my posts.

So all it enforces is that you cant do full power shots anymore? Too lazy to read up on that feature. :x *slaps himself*

Guess you need a bunch of communities and a 20 pages long whine topic to get noticed. :s

If you hold the spacebar for too long, the power starts to decrease. That means you need as much timing as for any other shot in order to launch a weapon with full power.

Other than that, fall damage is automatically activated with /ts, providing a possibility to do more than usual damage with a spot-on shot.

The attached replay demonstrates it all.

So in the end all it does is making full power shots harder, hmm don't know if that really solves anything since an almost fp shot still basically flies around the same area just that it bounces before exploding.

there is a solution to solve this "bug" (I don't know how to call it)

Just active /alp (antilock power), /reaim (auto reaiming at turn start) and /cira (circular aiming) in the chat of the host, but Rubberworm is needed.

lol, yup, you get the real credit van

, I've just been trying to help champion the cause

Maybe it just needs its own thread like you say, I'd bump it every week

enjoy the tus democracy franz

I've always supported that idea franz.

I don't agree with auto re-aim, but if everyone else supports it, why not, doesn't bother me too much, I like to use my thumb to save time, but I always get the aim 1st time anyway so no difference, I just grew comfortable minimising, and using thumb to save time over the years...
