Bugs / Hunchback Intimidate sound effect
« on: January 01, 2018, 08:16:16 pm »
When mutant hunchbacks use Intimidate, the "human laughter" sound effect plays instead of the "mutant shriek" normal mutants have. Doesn't seem intentional.

Bugs / DOMINATING the self-replicating Ironhead Demolisher
« on: December 19, 2017, 08:11:17 pm »
In Warehouse Block Beta, on map where Balor is, in the room with a power box, there's an Ironhead Demolisher standing in a corner. If killed, a new one will spawn when re-entering the map.

Bugs / DOMINATING GMS neutral sentry bots
« on: December 12, 2017, 01:27:15 pm »
New sentry bots at GMS are neutral rather than hostile. They don't react to the player at all, except for investigating a destroyed camera.

Bugs / DOMINATING HP modifier and hypos
« on: December 11, 2017, 08:31:10 pm »
DOMINATING has the same HP modifier and hypos as Normal- 90 HP at level 1 with 5 CON, basic hypo restores 80 HP with 6 turns of cooldown. Don't think that's intended, the in-game description seems to suggest the modifiers are supposed to be even harsher than on Hard.

General / Leather overcoat with green goggles
« on: September 26, 2017, 09:00:20 am »
I made a small mod/sprite replacement that changes the color of goggles in the leather overcoat sprite from red to green. I figured I might as well share it.



https://www.dropbox.com/s/51jspmjg65666dw/Leather%20Overcoat%20Green%20Goggles.rar?dl=0

Instalation:
Copy all files inside the XNB folder to your pl_rg folder. If you have the game on Steam, it should be located in Steam\steamapps\common\Underrail\Data\Locale\Creatures. No idea about GOG, but it shouldn't be too hard to find. I recommend you make a copy of the original files in the pl_rg folder, in case you want to use the original sprites again.

I also included a custom portrait that goes well with those sprites. I did not create said portrait, credit goes to Zepposlav (http://underrail.com/forums/index.php?topic=1304.0). All I did was change the color of the goggles from red to green.

Let me know if you like it or if you find some issues with it. I will most likely post an updated version once the unique energy/chemical pistol sprites are in the game.

Bugs / Bipod move penalty
« on: July 20, 2017, 11:49:34 am »
The way bipod always worked was that its 10% precision bonus was lost when not focused, even though the tooltip didn't show this. I noticed that now the weapons with bipod show 10% more move penalty in their tooltip.

I assumed this is nothing more than a cometic change meant to show the player that the bonus is lost when not focused, but now that I'm playing it seems this penalty is added on top of losing the bonus. I was using an assault rifle with a bipod, chance to hit was 58% when focused, 33% after moving. That's 25% less precision, 5% from the default move penalty ARs have, 10% from the added move penalty of the bipod, 10% must be the lost bipod bonus.

Is this intended to work this way? It seems a bit harsh given that bipod already has an AP penalty.

Bugs / XAL-001 and corrosive acid vials
« on: May 23, 2017, 07:31:55 pm »
After some testing I think I figured out how the "leaking acid" mechanic of XAL-001 works.

It basically copies the attack against the enemy and applies it to you. So if it misses you are not going to suffer any damage either, if it hits you are going to suffer the exact same amount of damage as the enemy (what's more, you are even going to suffer bonus damage from feats like Opportunist if the enemy meets the conditions, even if you don't met the conditions yourself), if the acid entanglement procs you will become entangled yourself, etc.

Sadly I don't have 100% acid resistance to test with, but I think it would also apply corroded debuff to the PC even though he effectively resisted all the damage. That's really bad as corroded is going to lower said resistance.

What's funny is that the combat feed actually shows as if you are attacking the enemy twice instead of attacking yourself, so it's a bit confusing.

On top of that it also spawns an additonial layer of acid puddles all around you regardless of if you hit or miss. The trouble is, it's always a standard acid puddle. So if you shoot corrosive ammo out of it, you end up surrounded with one layer of standard green puddles and one layer of corrosive puddles. Doesn't make much sense, but from what I understand the mechanic was implement long before corrosive ammo was a thing.

Another thing is that the gun doesn't leak at all when used with special attacks such as Aimed Shot, Kneecap Shot and Point Shot, only on regular attacks.

Also, arelated question- I'm wondering why chemical pistols can't be unloaded. It's not like we are pouring pure acid/cryoliquid/incendiary directly into the gun, we are loading it with self-contained vials. Also, reloading an acid blob pistol with corrosive vials while it's loaded with standard vials (or vice versa) gives the standard vials back, so it is possible to get the vials out of a loaded gun. Bit of an inconsistency here.

Also, this one is more of a suggestion, but I can't say I'm a fan of the entire mechanic to begin with. It basically punishes you for improving your damage. There are ways to achieve +/- 95% DR against acid and immunity to immobilization with CAU armor and very high quality infused siphoner tabis, or even 100% with mutated dog leather tabis, but it still doesn't feel right. It also seems prone to many issues in general as stated above.

In my opinion static acid damage dealt to the player with no entanglement/corrosion debuff would work out much better and probably less prone to issues/bugs. The gun would still require highly dedicated gear to resist this damage while top quality crafted acid blob pistols have much bigger chance to proc acid entaglement and will deal more secondary damage, especially with Mad Chemist (44% and 110%/220% damage with 120 quality dispenser, XAL has only 30% and 100%). Not finishing the quest means less XP, too.

I think those things are a good trade-off for higher base damage and 9 AP less to shoot. Chemical pistols really could use some love.

Bugs / Impact speed of unique assault rifles
« on: April 27, 2017, 08:23:57 pm »
I just noticed that while the impact speed of all regular, craftable Marauder/Huszar/Hornet/Chimera assault rifles is set to high, it's only medium for all unique assault rifles.

I don't know, maybe it's intentional, but it seems a little odd. None of the other unique weapons have impact speeds different that their standard, craftable counterparts.

Bugs / Expose Weakness performed by Faceless Gaunts ignores Uncanny Dodge
« on: December 15, 2016, 05:32:12 pm »
It's all in the title.

Sadly I don't have a save from before killing Tchort anymore so I can't replicate it right now.

Bugs / Oligarchs
« on: November 22, 2016, 09:07:33 pm »
According to the wiki, oligarchs will offer you a job only after becoming a gladiator and defeating your first gladiator enemy in the Arena.

I only won 2 arena fights (rathounds and psi bettles) and yet all of them are offering me a job already. The oldest save I have is the autosave from before the rathound fight, I will check if one fight is enough as well.

I'm not even sure if this is a bug, maybe the information on the wiki is simply incorrect.

Bugs / Rapid reloader and silencer can't be used together
« on: November 08, 2016, 08:30:07 am »
I don't think it's intentional, don't see how a device attached to the barrel would interfere with an improved cycling mechanism, unless I grossly misunderstood the way in which rapid reloader works.

General / Nanocomposite Plate
« on: September 15, 2016, 04:29:06 pm »
How does the critical damage reduction on those work exactly? Is it like Conditioning, i.e it reduces the final damage after it passes after all the resistances/thresholds/shields?

Also, does it work against all damage types, or mechanical only?

So In my last playthrough I tried to get all the oddites in the game and here is the end result:



As you can see, I didn't succeed in getting all of them, but I think I got as close as possible. This is why I think some oddites quantity/placement could use some minor tweaking.

The oddites I'm missing are:

One Black Eye: Those have a limit of three, yet I was able to find only two of them in the utility section. I've searched in all containers in both maps and even killed all the rejects to check if they don't drop them. I'm fairly sure there are only two that can be found. I would suggest adding another one in the utility section or maybe make rejects/Mouth of Tchort drop them. If I did indeed miss it for some reason, disregard it.

Two Electronic Idols: Those have a limit of three as well. The wiki says that they are a rare drop from Lunatics, but in all my playthroughs I only found one carried by the Lunatic Ripper. Since all Lunatics already drop Lunatic Poetry, I would suggest adding them either as a drop from Frost/Vega as welll and add another one in a container somewhere, or just reduce their limit to one.

Three Loaded Dices: I'm really confused about those. They have a limit of four yet I was only able to find a single one in a container somewhere in the Lower Underrail tunnels in a seemingly random location just by pure luck. I find it hard to believe I missed three of them, hell in some of my playthroughs I never found a single one. The wiki says that they can also be found around Rail Crossing but I never found any. I suggest adding a few of them around the Junkyard gambling house, it would fit perfectly. Maybe even in a pocket of one of the gamblers there.

One Quad Damage Module: The problem with those is that they are a fairly rare drop from Industrial Bots. Unlike all other creatures that drop oddites, Industrial Bots do not respawn anywhere and are pretty rare themeselves (I found only 6 of them, 1 in Hollow Earth, 2 in Arke, 2 in Iris Core and 1 in the warehouse). This makes getting Quad Damage Module a matter of pure luck. I would suggest at least making them drop a little more often, if not guaranteed.

Two Train Logs: I'm not sure about those, I might have missed them. The problem with them is they are placed rather inconsistently and it's hard to figure out where to look for them, I remember I found the 6th one in Fraser storeroom which was rather unexpected. The same applies to Train Driver Manuals, which is managed to max just by pure luck as well (the 8th one was sitting in the room of Consul Oliver, even more unexpected). I wouldsuggest adding a few more of those around the Lower/Upper Underrail.

Beyond those, I think everything else is fine more or less. I really liked how Blanket (that zoner watching Arena in his home) has an Arena Broadcasting Schedule in his pockets. Really nice touch, I wish there was more things like that.

1. Asking Svana to take you to the Forsaken Island

2. Refusing to drink with Georgis

3. Encountering Faceless for the first time in DC if you were hostile to them during the whole game
