Is there any references in game about batleaxes? I haven't heard anything.

quick elbow
#

Wow I really messed up my math

#

if "thecyrobot" is in this sub, thanks for editing the Cargo Crate page. I dunno how I messed that up as badly as I did.

acoustic scarab

@hexed light only in the sense that the Driller has throwable extendable axes

quick elbow
#

Hey, does anyone know if Steeve's damage scales off of Hazard Level?

weary sonnet
#

I think he does, but I didn’t test it directly.

#

Checking steeve damage.

#

Well the tests don’t make any sense, I will need to dig a bit more to understand what is happening.

glacial topaz
#

xD

weary sonnet
#

The damage isn’t based on hazard level I can tell that much.

low hamlet
#

make sure you are just using one enemy type :p

austere fossil
#

Are they affected by armor/weakpoints? I seem to recall Crit Weakness Steeves dying faster to other glyphids than normal

weary sonnet
#

It look like the different grunt have their own damage value as steeve that is not affected by weakpoint/armor or the base damage value of the creature.
Well not enought tests to be sure about the weakpoint/armor part.
But the damage value is definitly different.

stark tulip
#

glyphids have a mouth weakpoint, so maybe that's how they're taking more damage during crit weakness

bold plover
#

Mutations affect Steeve, Beastmaster itself gives a damage bonus unless you use the tier 1 version.

weary sonnet
#

I checked assuming there was a x4 damage bonus with the last tier, even with that the damage didn’t make sense.
5×4 damage for the grunt, 8.5×4 for the slasher.

bold plover
#

Was it less or more?

weary sonnet
#

Knowing that grunt base damage is 4 and slasher is 10

bold plover
#

Afaik there are separate files for Steeve outside of the perk stuff, forgot where and what there is in them though.

weary sonnet
#

Cleaning my files to extract them with the good parser and I will check them.

bold plover
#

A lot of the info needs to be found via the names category for that parser.

glacial topaz
#

uhm... is this correct ? isn't it like a rare bug to get to happen ? seems more like trivia that it can be done than a tip to follow, beast master page

weary sonnet
#

You can tame them just fine, it is just that you need to get pretty far so that they are not killed by the event explosion.

glacial topaz
#

seems like that should be made clear

weary sonnet
#

By default they will be killed at the end of the event, tamed or not afaik.

low hamlet
#

i was going to change that last night

#

didn't get to it tho

craggy wraith
#

These three icons in the resource nav aren't links like the icons in the rest of the nav box

shell frigate
#

Will fix that

#

Done

analog rock
#

Side note, the ebonite grunts are actually the worst steeves, since they take melee damage, don't have a lot of health and don't hit hard. But they are invulnerable to the dwarves attacks, meaning you can't get rid of them yourself.

glacial topaz
#

well, anyone that knows more about it feel free to change the line

jaunty wind
#

Do any of the other bugs even do weakpoint damage

bold plover
#

Ebonite Steeve can be kept from what Elythwaen said, or by a wave spawning after the event explosion which may have been patched.

jaunty wind
#

They can 100% be kept

glacial valve
#

By default they will be killed at the end of the event, tamed or not afaik.
@weary sonnet no, i've had them survive. they were far away. happened several times last week, in fact.

low hamlet
#

yep. you have to guide them pretty far away for it to work

acoustic scarab
#

Would it work if someone stayed far away from the group in an attempt to make the game spawn an ebonite bug far away from the machine?

low hamlet
#

either that or lead a couple far enough away from the event

#

do we actually know the radius of the explosion where outside of it it doesnt destroy them?

shell frigate
#

Pretty sure they are set to spawn around the event

low hamlet
#

Pretty sure they are set to spawn around the event
that was my understanding as well, so you'd have to guide them away

austere fossil
#

From #changelist-only-for-experimental-branch a week ago
||- Squashed a bug that caused Kursite enemies to spawn at host’s location rather than the location of the Machine Event

  • Squashed similar bugs in other Machine Events||
    Sounds like they could spawn elsewhere, though not intentionally
#

I've definitely had the Kursite one myself

glacial topaz
#

you probably should spoiler that iirc

austere fossil
#

Is the fix or confirmation of what the intended behavior is the spoiler part?

low hamlet
#

just experimental spoilers. not really a big deal for those but just better to spoiler it imo

glacial valve
#

eh i consider those to be patch notes

#

it's not new content

#

but i'll go along with the policy anyway

tranquil hazel
#

wiki not good

floral drift
#

would you be willing to provide some more constructive feedback to help the wiki improve?

tranquil hazel
#

yes destroy it an ad google

floral drift
#

so, in summary, you're just trolling this channel?

tranquil hazel
#

nope an just forget it you dont get the joke am trying make

low hamlet
#

f

#

some entertainment i guess x)

quick elbow
#

It was me who added that change to Steeve's page. I had a Kurisite Grunt last a really long time after I tried taming one, after learning that they could be tamed.

#

I will say that my friend just... always seems to kill my Steeve. He uses the Autocanon and has a real bad habit of shooting into hordes where my Steeve is. That, and the one I tamed had been a glitched one that spawned just as the explosion happened, so he lasted outside the event

#

Probably worth noting on the page that they should explode when the event is over, so it's not worth it unless they are glitched like that

@quick elbow A small thing, autocannon does absolutely no damage to allies, Steeve included. Your Steeve is safe.

wary cove
#

That's a bug

quick elbow
#

I do believe it at least strips armor

bold plover
#

It takes 15 damage before you fall off a zipline.

floral drift
#

is that mentioned anywhere in the Zipline page?

bold plover
#

Nope.

#

1.75m travel speed on the zipline by default, 0.25 seconds to activate the speed boost, minimum angle for boost on the zipline is anything past the 3rd tick above 0, any past the first tick below 0 , speed boost adds 1.1m to speed at minimum, +0.3m speed per 1 degree in angle, 2m eject distance from end of line when using speed boost.

stable valley
#

Hey guys I asked Johan about the way damage is calculated with Stunner. My questions were a little all over the place but you can infer what they were from his response. I'm happy to share the questions too

#

What a guy

#

I hope this is useful to your endeavors

#

I'd assume bullets of mercy and weakpoint stun for the gk2 and conductive bullets and electrocution chance with the stubby work similarly.

sand lantern
#

Actually I remember some greybeards claiming that there was a patch when this order was changed.

#

So it was like playing with devil

#

Got stun = one killed

#

No stun = no kill

bold plover
#

Yeah, they changed how it works for "consistency".

#

Used to stun first and damage later.

weary sonnet
#

Some info about dinsintegrate damage type from Dagadegatto, it is used for the unique death effect, in practice it is basically the same as kinetic damage since no creature is weak or resistant to it.

weary sonnet
#

The shot breaking the armor is actually supposed to do full damage through heavy armor as well, it should be added in U32 if they can debug it in time.

by the way, the fixed armor breaking will also apply to heavy armor like the praet (from Dagadegatto)

craggy wraith
#

Looks like the wiki's been migrated to the UCP already, keep an eye out for problems

tranquil hazel
#

A bit of a mistake here

#

The radioactive swarmers don’t have a rad cloud upon death at least I’ve never seen it

unkempt quarry
#

i didnt even know swarmers had variants.
that paragraph as a whole looks like its kinda just pulled from the pretorian.
i dont recall radiation fields from swarmers either though

tranquil hazel
#

Most definitely pulled from the pretorian page

austere fossil
#

The wording in the previous sentence should also be changed to "Fire" and "Frost" since they have the same ignite and freeze temperatures. It's the damage types that they have differing resistances to.

tranquil hazel
#

That paragraph should just be removed

#

It adds nothing to the page

weary sonnet
#

There is a radiation cloud file from the swarmers, but I tried to test it at some point and I never manage to trigger anything else than their default melee attack.

sand lantern
#

If I had to guess swarmer attack deals more DPS than the cloud, futhermore clouds can't stack

#

Either swarmer stands at a place creating that cloud (which is useless because any swarmer gets killed instantly) or it just floats around making them deadlier than any swarmer is

low hamlet
#

or it's an unused mechanic that they just havent removed the game files for?

stark tulip
#

someone in #drg-chat says that breaking a dreadnought's shell counts as a kill for weapon mods that activate on kill
if anyone can confirm this, the info should be added somewhere

glacial topaz
#

the m1000 focus fear is one ?

plush night
#

You can do it with the gk2 speed boost if you need

austere fossil
#

Cold as the Grave was another specifically mentioned

stark tulip
#

yeah it seems to be any on-kill weapon mod

glacial topaz
#

well, just have to check if it is intended or not, if they fix it not sure it is worth putting on the wiki just to remove shortly after

acoustic scarab
#

Shouldn't it include, like, most of the pages on the entire wiki?

weary sonnet
#

The tag is added manually once a page is updated and reviewed.

#

(Well and if the editor know/remember the tag exists.)

acoustic scarab
#

That's exactly my point. I understand why the category is there, but if noone much cares to use it, it looks a bit vestigial.

plush night
#

It is quite cool for wiki translators, so people (like me) can safely translate pages without having to modify it next week

low hamlet
#

also one thing about the up to date tag. it sometimes screws up formatting on the page

vague cliff
#

Tho this is bug and or game mechanic related, it is only related on the wiki.
May I ask why the minigun rof and ammo consumption ratio are described/done the way they are? Please no "because it looks cool" . I've been hungry for an actual answer for months please <.> ( if possible at all)

austere fossil
#

iirc, the literal, actual answer from the Devs is "because it looks cool"

vague cliff
#

(To be specific. It involves the "for every bullet fired, 2 are ACTUALLY" consumed)

#

Hmmm :/

#

I really need to catch them on a QnA then

#

As dumb and brash as this sounds. WHY not just half the bullet damage and have an actual 1:1 ratio.

weary sonnet
#

They couldn’t make the guns reliably shoot at a fire rate above 20 rounds per seconds. So it was a technical limitation.

Now as for why they choose to still display this in game, I am pretty sure TriggerHappyBro is right, the devs said they wanted bigs numbers on theses weapons because it looks cool.

vague cliff
#

Hmmm. Well it does make sense and with considerable time under my belt I dont see another solution. Still odd how it all ended up. Makes me think how the development for gunner class may have changed along the way. 🤔 ( when in development )

acoustic scarab
#

Can you believe Gunner used to have a satchel charge? Such blasphemy it seems today

stark tulip
#

I remember reading about that

low hamlet
floral drift
#

does anyone in this channel have the ability to look up Powered Drills' Fear, Stun Chance %, and Stun Duration values? i notice that they're absent from the wiki

glacial topaz
#

🤔 really odd they have that

shell frigate
#

0.5 FearFactor I think

glacial topaz
#

I had the chance to check that but never did since I don't remember anyone talking about it

shell frigate
#

May be blind but don't see a stun thing in that file

floral drift
#

alright

#

the Stun was hearsay

#

that's why i was looking at the wiki's page in the first place

#

thanks 🙂

shell frigate
#

Np

weary sonnet
#

@floral drift
I can confirm the 0.5 FearFactor.
For the stun (called stagger in the files) it is 25% chance and 1 s duration (values are for live so 31.5).

shell frigate
#

This is why I note I may be blind

#

Did a whole pack wide search of stun to check if it was the term and it is used for some things

sleek jackal
#

stun mod on C4 says it lasts 1.5 seconds on the wiki, but in game it last 4 seconds (vs mactera spawn and praetorian). 5 seconds on a guard strangely. Are mactera spawn and praetorian more resistant to stun duration than guards or are guards more vulnerable to it?

tranquil hazel
glacial topaz
#

not much reason for one, weapons already have the type listed, and the creatures have the resistances / weakness listed

tranquil hazel
#

but it would help explain what each one does in one easy page without having to go in-game

low hamlet
#

to be fair, having all that info on one page would be nice

tranquil hazel
#

yeah

low hamlet
#

the nice thing is the info is already there

glacial topaz
#

we have a status effects page already

low hamlet
#

it isn't the same

glacial topaz
#

what do you even want to explain about damage types that isn't explained via status effects

low hamlet
#

omega there's info on that screenshot that isn't on status effects

#

example: pheremones, kinetic, etc

glacial topaz
#

nothing special about kinetic, pheromones is just a status effect

#

only thing that might be interesting is listing on the weapon pages creatures that resist its damage type

shell frigate
#

There is not really anything special about particular damage types other than what resists it

#

A couple at most have cause different death animations, but think that's it

#

But still could have a page dedicated to all that info

glacial topaz
#

just updating the status page, or making a simple page with links to the status page, fear page , and armor page should work nicely

shell frigate
#

Was more thinking of a listing of each type with the weapons that deal it & the enemies vulnerable / resistant to it, also linking to anything relevant

glacial topaz
#

basically a table

#

one axis with dmg types, and the source, and the other with all creatures, and the resistances

shell frigate
#

Yeah

weary sonnet
#

Looking for some feedback/improvement for this small template on breakable weakpoints, especially to clarify the last sentence:

#

(Didn’t read the last ~10 message I will catch up now.)

low hamlet
#

i recommend a little padding for at least the player count row header

austere fossil
#

You probably don't need to mention armor damage doesn't apply since your average player isn't gonna know that it's a repurposing of the armor system.

weary sonnet
#

True

#

Should I add that flamethrower and cryo cannon can’t break them?

low hamlet
#

could be nice

#

that is useful info

austere fossil
#

As is the fact that power attacks can, but don't get any benefit (I think)

weary sonnet
#

Any AoE will damage and potentially break them.

#

Which is a waste since they don’t benefit from weakpoint damage, I could add that.

glacial topaz
#

is there any existing page we can jsut add the dmg table ?

low hamlet
#

maybe

#

how's this? cleaned up this section and planning to do the same for the others as well

weary sonnet
#

I think we will need a new page for the damage table, I don’t see it fitting in any existing page.

#

For the experience page, I think there is either too much padding or the icons are too small.

#

–––
Here is the new version for the breakable weakpoint, not sure about the padding, it is at 5px now.

low hamlet
#

it needs that 5px padding

#

it's really hard to read otherwise since it's just a ton of numbers on top of each other

#

also suggestions on what to do with this table?

weary sonnet
#

Ok, thanks for the answer turtle, the reason I ask, is because I don’t care about that kind of padding myself, but I know I am the exception so I need someone else opinion.

As for the table, I wouldn’t change much, if anything about it.
Not sure the last row is needed but I think we can leave it as it is.

weary sonnet
#

Is there a way to fix to make the documentation of a template use a placeholder instead of PAGENAME?

low hamlet
#

wdym?

weary sonnet
#

I mean the variable {{pagename}}

#

It will look fine in the creature page, but not in the documentation.

low hamlet
#

The {{PAGENAME}} possess {{{weakpointNumber}}} {{{weakpointName}}}, unlike regular weakpoints, they are breakable.<br>

#

this line?

weary sonnet
#

Yes.

#

I used it to avoir reussing the creature name every time.

low hamlet
#

yeah

#

i don't know

weary sonnet
#

I could just hardcode the doc to have the display right, but it feels wrong to do that.

weary sonnet
#

All breakable weakpoints are done (Bulk, Crassus, Menace, Bomber).
I also added the explaination for the nexus eyes (unique case following its own rules).

plush night
#

I've just translated the creature health armor template and doc... Is there a way to check what did you precisely changed so I can save myself time by not editing all the page again ? :')

weary sonnet
#

You can go in history and compare the revision.
I basically just added a 5px padding at the start of each line starting with player count or player count icon.

sand lantern
#

Is grabber logic known yet?

plush night
#

Thank you ! I will update it soon 😊

weary sonnet
#

The difference isn’t big, just appearance.

#

As for the grabber logic, all I know is from reading or trying to read the BT file nothing else.

#

For that one JWP may be easier to understand than Approved parser.

wispy marsh
#

what is better turret whip or the automatic one

floral drift
#

to answer your question directly: it comes down to preference. Turret Whip is crazy strong, but most people don't like having to micro-manage it. Miner Adjustments is a great QoL (full auto +0.5 RoF) so most people pick it up automatically, but by itself it's not a strong stat boost.

indirectly: the wiki channel isn't exactly the right channel to ask questions about build preference 🤔

wispy marsh
#

Oh I thought I was in genral my bad

#

thank you though

weary sonnet
#

@stark tulip In the creature infobox, the number next to the weakpoint name isn’t the number of weakpoint but the weakpoint damage multiplier.

#

Third time there is a misunderstanding about that in the creature infobox btw, someone see how we could clarify it?

#

I don’’t see how to display it without using two lines.

glacial valve
#

hover over?

#

with a small questom mark

weary sonnet
#

Ah, I forgot I could add it at the end here, that would help indeed.

#

It is ok now?

stark tulip
#

ah, that makes a lot more sense actually

glacial topaz
#

so is menace mouth just a x1 weakspot dmg bonus or I can undo that change ? might be interesting to change the template to "Weakpoint Damage Bonus" or something to be more clear on what it means

floral drift
#

i believe Elyth had told me that both Menaces' mouth and pouches are x2

glacial topaz
#

perfect

nova merlin
#

hey if I noticed as scout, while I was using "Overcharged Winch - +750 Max Speed" on the grappling hook, that I can hook past bulks to proc ground stomps while getting out of the aoe before it damages anything/kills me, should it go in bulk det wiki tips? idk if the +750 speed is required or not, I haven't tried not using it before. they seem to have a stomp recharge time of like 7-15 seconds but in enclosed spaces or during waves it could be situationally useful to know. and does work whether it is focused on you or not

austere fossil
#

FYI, I can zip past bulks and don't use the retraction speed mod

sand lantern
#

Explosive goodbye is being hooked from EPC persistent plasma generic projectile
That's why its damage is 40

weary sonnet
#

There was already an hoverover text for the weakpoint damage bonus in the creature infobox, I added an underline to make it more visible.

low hamlet
#

so is menace mouth just a x1 weakspot dmg bonus or I can undo that change ? might be interesting to change the template to "Weakpoint Damage Bonus" or something to be more clear on what it means
@glacial topaz yeah i didnt understand what was goin on there. i thought it was talking about the number of weakpoints

sand lantern
#

How big is health regen limit on haz5?

weary sonnet
#

For players it is 10% of the maximum value.

sand lantern
#

Which is 125 by default, right?

weary sonnet
#

110 base, +20 with healthy, multiplied by 1.0455 for each armor mastery you have.
(Need to double check the armor mastery value, but I don’t have access to the files atm, I think it was in weapon and tools.)
So that would be ~148.56 hp with healthy and full mastery.
Edit: I checked, the armor mastery value were right.

exotic vector
#

Can we include precise stats on the M1000's focus time somewhere on the weapon's page? It makes it difficult to make DPS calculations when the in-game Focus Time stat only lists a percentage.

sand lantern
#

Try MeatShield's DPS calculator

austere fossil
#

I think these are all the numbers necessary?
Focus Delay: 0.2s (delay before focus charging starts, unaffected by focus speed)
Focus Duration: 0.8s (divided by displayed focus speed stat)
Courtesy of MeatShield/Dagadegatto

floral drift
#

yeah, that's a good start

#

there's still some uncertainty regarding whether or not Hipster OC affects that 0.2s delay

#

but that 0.2/0.8 is good to add, and i think that the 0.8 is changed to 0.65 in U32XP but i haven't taken the time to confirm that yet. been busy.

sand lantern
#
"Data Value": 1.55```
weary sonnet
#

Can’t find any value at 0.2 (or 200 if it was in ms) that could match that delay in the parsed files using Approved parser.

#

The only thing at that value is NoGravityFocusSlowdownFactor which should be linked to hoverclock

austere fossil
#

I'm wondering if it's actually just 1/rof, which would be 0.25 for base and thus affected by Hipster

weary sonnet
#

That would make more sense if hipster affects it.

floral drift
#

it sounds like Daga had asked for a 0.2 delay but didn't give positive confirmation of its existence

weary sonnet
#

I could try to confirm that delay by recording at 100 fps if needed, with several sample, I should at least be able to tell if there is a delay or not.

floral drift
#

i have other things i'm working on, so i don't have time to do that kind of test myself right now. sorry

weary sonnet
#

Can’t do that today either, but I will take some time tomorrow.

sand lantern
#

What is charge speed for then if actual speed is 0.8?

#

Oh, it's not time

floral drift
#

my current understanding is that there's a 0.2s delay, followed by 0.8s/Focus Speed

#

so the interval between holding down Fire and when the Focused Shot is ready = 0.2 + 0.8/F

#

but there's a possibility that 0.2s is incorrect

austere fossil
#

It looks like that 0.8 is derived by 1/1.25

#

So "ChargeSpeed" should be 1.25 at base, not sure where 1.55 comes from

floral drift
#

is the 1.55 from the U32XP? they increased the base focus speed

#

1/1.55=0.645, tracking with my speculation of 0.8 -> 0.65 change

austere fossil
#

if it is then they actually nerfed focus speed

weary sonnet
#

Yes, in U31.5 it is 1.25

#
{
  "Property": "ChargeSpeed",
  "Type": "FloatProperty",
  "Offset": 518,
  "Size": 4,
  "Array Index": 0,
  "Value Offset": 543,
  "Data Value": 1.25
},```
austere fossil
#

wait, actually maybe not

weary sonnet
#

So for U32 the base will be ~0.65.

floral drift
#

1/1.25 = 0.8 and 1/(1.25*1.6) = 0.8/1.6 = 0.5

#

if the Data Value changed from 1.25 to 1.55, then yeah 0.8 -> 0.65. like i've said twice now.

#

the focus duration is fully understood. the question at hand is about the 0.2 delay

austere fossil
#

It was an ever so slight buff to focus speed, since 1/(1.55*1.3)=0.496

floral drift
#

indeed.

glacial valve
#

man some high-level research going on in here. proceed! 🧪 🔬 rocknstone

          "Size": 4,
          "Array Index": 0,
          "Value Offset": 10463,
          "Data Value": 0.2```
#

huh?

#

Does it have something to do with hoverclock?

#

Aight, same thing has duration. That should be hoverclock

floral drift
#

yeah, that's what Elyth had found too.

#

i'm pretty sure that 0.2 value for Hoverclock is referencing how it slows your current movespeed in air by x0.2 (aka -80%)

#

all the slows that we reference (Electrocute 80% slow, Neurotoxin 30% slow, etc) are really (1 - Number) multipliers internally

#

0.2 for Electrocute, 0.7 for NT, etc

#

like you can see in the screenshot i added of what Daga DM'd me, even he couldn't find the 0.2 delay in the code

#

but if you time the focus shots it comes out to exactly one sec between pressing M1 and hearing the ready "click", and the FoV doesn't move for 0.2 sec

#

so i'm fairly certain it exists, even if no one can find reference to it

sand lantern
#

I surely notice a delay when you take your weapon out and focus shot one time but can't remember anything like that in all later shots. Is that recoil thing?

Hey guys we noticed that Aggressive Venting's explosion is not listed as a source of fear on Gunner on the fear page https://deeprockgalactic.gamepedia.com/Fear additionally there was some debate about whether this fear effect is one of the special cases capable of fearing oppressors

Deep Rock Galactic Wiki

In Deep Rock Galactic, certain weapons, weapon mods, grenades, and perks are able to inflict the Fear Status Effect on Glyphid enemies (excluding Brood Nexus), Huuli Hoarders, and Mactera enemies.

#

thanks guys

austere fossil
#

@floral drift is you man for Fear

floral drift
#

@stable valley "Lead Storm" Powered Minigun T5.A "Aggressive Venting" applies 1000% Base Fear Chance to enemies within a 10m radius around the Gunner upon overheating. ???

stable valley
#

Oh man I read right by that

#

my mistake!

#

do you know if it is a special case for fearing oppressors

floral drift
#

no worries 🙂

and then at the very bottom of the page, Special Cases indicates that only Fear sources accompanied by a bright flash of light are able to bypass Oppressor's 100% Fear Resistance

#

so, AV cannot

brilliant. You're a legend

Back on Focus timings, I'm frame counting a 60fps video and what I'm seeing isn't lining up with you guys' numbers, though I may be missing the actual start. gonna get an input display of some sort

floral drift
#

when i did my tests (months ago) i remember timing between when i started holding down Mouse1 until i heard the "click" sound indicating that the focus shot was ready, and ignored the crosshair entirely.

austere fossil
#

thing is, the click sound starts a few frames before the crosshair marks appear, so it'd be even worse off if that's the case

floral drift
#

do share -- what have your timings found?

austere fossil
#

that the 0.2s is included in the 0.8, though it's possible I'm not marking the mouse1 input correctly

floral drift

🤔 interesting

glacial topaz
analog rock
#

nope

floral drift
#

Trigger, would you be willing to do similar timings for 3 more cases?

  • T2.A equipped
  • OC "Supercooling" equipped
  • Both equipped
#

in theory, without the 0.2 sec delay it should be

  • 0.8
  • 0.5
  • 1.6
  • 1.0
analog rock
stark tulip
#

@glacial topaz I added that
I looked up "crassus" and that was the definition

analog rock
#

See the message linked right above please @stark tulip

glacial topaz
#

I know, I undid it

stark tulip
#

oh so it's probably just a coincidence then

#

I was thinking like it could have referred to both Crassus and the word crassus

#

but I guess not

austere fossil
#

by my count, LButton appears on frame 11, and xhair marks appear on frame 60

#

(fired the boomstick afterwards as demo that it the input display is accurate)

floral drift
#

nice. good job catching that

#

could you verify the other 3 variants, too? see my earlier message

austere fossil
#

yeah, working on it now

#

837-867 for base with T2A, so exactly 0.5 on that one

#

1.58__33__ for just supercooling

#

1s for supercooling+T2A

floral drift
#

so, in summary: the 0.2s i've been talking about is incorrect

#

RIP me

#

sorry everyone

austere fossil
#

I think there is a ~0.2s delay before the zoom in happens though, it's just part of the focus time

#

eh, actually I think it's closer to .5s

#

nvm, zoom-in delay looks to be dependent on focus speed

#

0.25s with T2A, 0.78__33__s with supercooling

#

ooooo that 0.2s might be the refire delay

floral drift
#

wait.... check Hipster

austere fossil
#

actually, it's looking closer to 0.25, which would be the regular refire delay

floral drift
#

it doesn't affect Focus Speed but its visual delay is different...

#

like you suggested, is the delay 1/7 instead of 1/4 s?

glacial valve
#

caught some old references to OMEN drone replicator being called a "drone platform", fixed

low hamlet
#

i noticed that exploder infestation has is actually called Exploder Infestation! ingame. there might be some fixing needed because of that

austere fossil
#

@floral drift yeah, only ~0.15s extra delay between focus shots with hipster

low hamlet
#

yup like i thought it would be. they are missing the !

floral drift
#

not extra delay, delay before zoom

austere fossil
#

I mean "time not attributable to focus speed", in this case, your bog standard refire delay dependent on the rof stat

#

I had 56 frames between releasing one shot and the xhair marks for the next with just hipster, so that's 0.8 from regular focus and 0.13 from the 7rof (with a smidge of rounding error due to 60fps). And those 56 frames include the 4 it took me to release and then repress LMB

floral drift
#

oh, so if i'm understanding you correctly the RoF delay gets applied between focused shots too?

#

i wasn't aware of that

austere fossil
#

yeah, so hipster does increase focus shot rof, just not the focus speed itself

floral drift
#

that would explain how i was so wrong

#

about the 0.2 delay

#

it wasn't a delay before focus shots, it was the RoF between the shots

austere fossil
#

yeah, which at base should be 0.25, and with hipster ~0.14

floral drift
#

👍 i'll add that to my list of bugs to fix in my program

#

thanks Trigger!

weary sonnet
#

Tested it at 100fps for focus speed, the conclusion are the same than TriggerHappyBro, the total duration is ~0.8s.
For my tests, I binded mouse 1 and mouvement left to the same key and used the OC Active Stability System to make the movement more easy to see.
There is ~0.2s before the crosshair start to shrink and 0.05-0.1s after that it starts to rotate.
(Didn’t made enough tests to have a good average for now.)

sand lantern
#

That's the purpose of Active Stability😮

weary sonnet
#

This is the data I got after 10 tests at without any focus speed on live.

Hi guys, hope you are well. Just a question: do you guys have a user called PunchyTurtle around? He has been creating pages in the english wiki with the /es fragment, meaning those are supposed to be moved to the spanish page but only when the wiki is not yet created. Furthermore, some of the pages he's creating are already in the spanish wiki and in the progress of translation. From my perspective, you can erase all those pages, they make no sense since I am creating and translating pages when necessary to cover the whole wiki.

#

Thoughts on that?

weary sonnet
#

@low hamlet

steep blaze
#

Is it him?

weary sonnet
#

Yes

steep blaze
#

Ok, thanks 🙂

steep blaze
#

In fact, @weary sonnet , he just created one page and modified two which were remains of the -es migration (for some reason they did not move). Once I confirm with turtle (speaking to him in private), could you please delete all the pages with /es in the English wiki? Not sure if you are a wiki admin or not; if not, could you point me to the person to contact with? I could speak with the gamepedia dev himself, but just wondering if we can sort it out faster ourselves. Thanks.

weary sonnet
#

Once it is confirmed I can delete them yes. I am one of the 3 wiki guardian with Cyrob and GoldMath.

sand lantern
#

Who is GoldMath?

#

Wrong question

#

Is he active?

weary sonnet
#

He is often updating pages just after the game update (preparing as much as possible in advance), but he is rarely is on the discord.

steep blaze
#

Perfect, thanks for the info. I will let you know 🙂

austere fossil
#

dammit now I really want them to make it 12 base with 1.25x as the AOE
only reduces the total by 0.5, still allows the AOE to kill swarmers but now allows you to defuse exploders in haz4+

sand lantern
#

This might be the reason why it is not 0,5 more

#

Also might be the reason why I am so unlucky with defusing exploders

austere fossil
#

though changing it to 12 base with 1.25x AOE wouldn't let you oneshot grunt mouths with SYIH passive

#

1.3x as AOE actually keeps the total almost equal and would preserve that oneshot potential

#

wait no it wouldn't

#

you'd need 1.375x AOE to preserve it

bold plover
#

I don't remember, was there any difference in health between the 3 types of exploders?

weary sonnet
#

There isn’t between the 4 types (normal, rad and respective mutator variants).

bold plover
#

I know for sure that you can't disarm in hazard 5 with melee unless the exploder was damaged but not detonating.

#

Although I did bug report it, so maybe they'll change it or something so that you can.

austere fossil
#

yeah, because they have 24 hp, and 11 x2 isn't 24

weary sonnet
#

Another easy way to fix it, make their head a x3 weakspot.

sand lantern
#

Thought of it as well

weary sonnet
#

Even with that difusing it with melee isn’t guarantee and it shoudn’t help that much with most weapons.

sand lantern
#

But there's probably a reason there isn't maximum damage bonus on their mouth

austere fossil
#

probably just inherited the x2 from default grunt

sand lantern
#

Well, you have a point

austere fossil
#

x3 would allow warthog to defuse with one pellet (assuming T4B and no minishells)

#

also would allow base stubby to defuse

sand lantern
#

Warthog is hitscan
Will it work that way if crosshair is certainly bigger than mouth?

austere fossil
#

not sure if it'd be reliable, but I'm pretty sure I've defused with the warthog at range before

#

just a mixture of lucky hits and lucky order of application

#

x3 would also allow base leadstorm to defuse

sand lantern
#

Pfft

austere fossil
#

and base zhuks

#

maybe just give them a melee vulnerability?

weary sonnet
#

^I like that.

austere fossil
#

literally a 10% vulnerability would let you haz4+ defuse

#

and you already oneshot them on the body

#

yeah, I think the only change a 10% melee vulnerability would do is allow for haz4+ defuse, there isn't much that both does melee and doesn't already oneshot an exploder anyway

weary sonnet
#

It would allow for a faster kill with drills as well, ah mb no, would need 20%.

#

Well not like you want to do that in the first place.

sand lantern
#

Is it something that would be useful?
On higher hazards people usually prefer AoE weapons over single target ones (Unless dread mission)
Defusing one exploder of entire pack won't help you
And they don't really come in alone as well

austere fossil
#

I miss it mostly when they sneak up on you while you're mining. Being able to spin around and defuse them just feels so good

sand lantern
#

Good point

austere fossil
#

Especially when there's greenbeards around and they all panic and run and you're just standing there like "what you worrying about?"

steep blaze
#

@weary sonnet , Turtle has confirmed that the pages with /es can be all deleted. Would you mind doing that? As I said, they are mostly mine but apparently didnt migrate correctly, so I apologize for that (although not completely my fault, as you might guess hehe). Thanks for the help.

weary sonnet
#

Np, I will delete them.

steep blaze
#

Thank you 🙂

weary sonnet
#

I think I removed all of them, let me know if one is still there.

steep blaze
#

If I find any I will let you know

Hello I've been looking at the DRG wiki to keep me up to date as I've stopped playing for a while I can't find any page about Miner's Manual is there a page for it?

weary sonnet
#

There is no page about the miner’s manual on the wiki for now.

versed dove
#

Aw okay thanks for the answer I'll eventually revisit DRG one day 🙂

glacial topaz
#

The Wiki is the Manual, hue.
Not even sure how to even present the in game manual, would it simply be a page to explain what it is, maybe with screenshots of all parts ?

weary sonnet
#

If there was a page about it, I think it would be a general page about the in game UI/menus.

#

As you said, I don’t think there is a reason to make a full page for it since most of its content is already indirectly on the wiki.

low hamlet
#

i guess the upside of the /es thing is now all the es articles are off the english wiki so that's good i guess :)

weary sonnet
#

There is still some russian articles/templates, I wonder if they should be there or not.

glacial topaz
#

Anyone to contact ? Or we making that decision ourselves

low hamlet
#

there doesn't seem to be a russian wiki though

#

Anyone to contact ? Or we making that decision ourselves
i think we be careful about deleting things without contacting

weary sonnet
#

I didn’t remove anything and I won’t unless we are sure they are not used.

#

Bebe or SplitSentro may know.

low hamlet
#

so it seems there are a couple people who have consistently done things on /ru articles

#

klogo hopper, QMan, and a couple other people

weary sonnet
#

From what I know most of the russian wiki translator are not on this wiki.

#

They don’t appear to have a subwiki yet, so we should probably leave the pages as they are.

acoustic scarab
#

Is there a quick way to see all pages in a certain language?

low hamlet
#

if you just search /ru or whatever abbreviation is used it'll pop all of them up

acoustic scarab
#

I remember stumbling upon a Scout-related page in Russian and being not impressed with the quality at all

weary sonnet
#

If a language has a subwiki, it will be displayed at the bottom left of the main page.

acoustic scarab
#

Now that I look at it again, Scout/ru definitely feels machine-translated

sand lantern
#

Won't be surprised honestly

#

As I can only remember one guy who worked on wiki

#

Ru one

#

Probably he isnt anymore lol

glacial topaz
#

Contact via wiki to tell them to move their stuff ?

sand lantern
#

Wdym?

acoustic scarab
#

Is there even anywhere to move this to? I'm not sure, let me serach if there's a Russian DRG wiki

shell frigate
#

You have to have a certain amount of /ru pages before a Russian wiki would be made

acoustic scarab
#

Yeah, as far as I can see there was no certralized effort to have a knowledge base outside of Gamepedia's DRG pages in the /ru space.

glacial topaz
#

last case just compile all the russian text info in a txt file , save it, and give to them

acoustic scarab
#

And on our wiki there are 10 pages, 3 of which are passable, 3 look like machine translations, 2 are severely out of date (did Berserk really boost melee based on lost hit points? wow), 1 still has large swaths of English on it, and 1 is a single-paragraph stub.

hazy matrix
#

3 look like machine translations
ah yes, google translate

acoustic scarab
#

I don't feel like anything of actual value would be lost if someone backed up the source code and removed them.

shell frigate
#

Berserk did, it was really fun

low hamlet
#

extremely op lol

shell frigate
#

Would not call it OP, since at it's most powerful put you at 1 hit from death

hazy matrix
#

thats the definition of a glass cannon

austere fossil
#

It made getting hp with vamp free during iron will, you could oneshot a grunt on armor

shell frigate
#

Glass Cannon tend to still at least take 2 hits

austere fossil
#

though that then immediately ended iron will and left you at oneshot again

shell frigate
#

I would not call it a meta choice but a fun one (if it was OP everyone would take it)

hazy matrix
#

so what were you guys talking about earlier

low hamlet
#

so i think the best plan for the russian part of the wiki is put it into a txt file, and if someone is willing to do translations again, we hand them the stuff that's in the txt file

shell frigate
#

Wonder if you dump the English pages into something like DeepL it would still feel like a machine translation

hazy matrix
#

DeepL?

shell frigate
#

Best translator I've seen

sand lantern
#

@acoustic scarab There're no active people in russian wiki anymore

acoustic scarab
#

Sad but, like you said, not surprising

hazy matrix
#

but the question is, do people need (/want) a russian wiki?

acoustic scarab
sand lantern
#

People who want to learn already contacted greybeards
People who don't... well, you know what's up with these

shell frigate
acoustic scarab
#

I think the Russian Discord would be able to answer that question?

hazy matrix
#

oh @shell frigate didnt know that

low hamlet
#

yes you should ask em if you're on there

sand lantern
#

Not really, cat

acoustic scarab
#

I'm not >_>

sand lantern
#

The only active ones are greybeards

#

You can ask if you want to though

acoustic scarab
#

But then I'd be the one people will expect to do the actual translation :D
The sheer amount of work is off-putting

sand lantern
#

I can help you but as I said there're not many reasons to do it

acoustic scarab
glacial valve
#

also

hazy matrix
#

shouldnt be that hard lol

glacial valve
#

let's be realistic here

#

if a russian person really needs the info and they really don't know any English and they can't infer stuff from context from the DRG localization vs the wiki...

#

they can just use google translate to read the wiki

hazy matrix
#

and if none of that works, just ask another person

sand lantern
acoustic scarab
#

Just as a quick aside, DeepL's version of the passage about the Driller's throwables is... comically inept

hazy matrix
#

i just noticed DRG-Crotia only has 7 members

#

the impact axes?

sand lantern
#

All grenade types

#

Deepl might be good but DRG has some specifics

acoustic scarab
#

Yes, the Smashing Axe, the High-Torn-Apart Grenade, and the Neurotoxin Grenade

hazy matrix
#

The Axe of Smashing

glacial valve
#

high-torn-apart grenade 😄

#

i think that is overselling the effects by quite a bit

hazy matrix
#

"High Explosive" > High "Torn-Apart" 🤔

glacial valve
#

i mean high explosive is already overselling it mightily

#

they should just call it the "smoke bomb"

#

and then still "bomb" is overselling it

hazy matrix
#

so yeah, if you are gonna make a russian wiki you are gonna need to make it by hand i guess

shell frigate
#

Yeah even if translators were great they could not handle DRG-specific things

acoustic scarab
#

Also, with a risk of side-tracking the conversation again, here's Translation Party: https://www.translationparty.com
It's a website that translates a phrase into Japanese, then takes that output and translates it back into English, then translates that into Japanese again, and over and over, until the text stops changing from all the back and forth.
Usually by that point the text is completely inane, which can provide some good laughs

sand lantern
#

What if I upload patch notes there
haha just kidding
...unless?

hazy matrix
#

slowly opens the bee movie script tab i have open

acoustic scarab
#

Wiki text tends to give boring results, because the wiki article style is meant to be concise and unambiguous

sand lantern
#

Anyways, back to topic

hazy matrix
#

on topic = dead chat
off topic = most active chat in the server

shell frigate
low hamlet

i think that is overselling the effects by quite a bit
@glacial valve wrong >:) detpack

Why is the .exe called FSD and not DRG.exe?

#

I seen people ask this question

#

like here

#

but there's no anwser I could find.

shell frigate
#

Likely an early code name for DRG

#

Quite common with Unreal engine games

#

Satisfactory is named FactoryGame.exe
And Ark ShooterGame.exe (The Default Name)

weary sonnet
#

I think the meaning of FSD was shared at some point in the regular chat, but I never saw it/manage to find it.

shell frigate
#

Never saw it either, many have been guessing for years

#

The first codename for the game was Project Dwarka

#

The 2 popular guesses for FSD are Fantasy Space Dwarves & Full Standalone Deployment

sand lantern
#

Is there any info on how T3a of zipline works? I'm curious how long does it stay or why does it disappear

weary sonnet
#

I only know the value, no idea for the duration, unless Approved parser can find it now.

sand lantern
#

No it seems

weary sonnet
#

Some of the info is in a struct, the parser doesn’t work with theses.

floral drift
#

struct? that's a name i haven't heard.... in a long time

C++ flashbacks ensue

weary sonnet
#

He used C# to make his parser and so far array and struct are the kind of properties that are out of reach due to how the parser is made.

#

I don’t see anything with duration in the .uasset files either.

#

I checked the STE and UPG files.

floral drift
#

i guess what you could do is fall from greater and greater heights until you notice the fall reduction wearing off

#

then use projectile equation with a=-9.8m/sec^2 and the height fallen from to get an estimate

weary sonnet
#

I can mod it to 100% if someone want to test it.

sand lantern
#

I mean even at 10 meters damage difference is like 2

#

I don't think that was an actual resistance

weary sonnet
#

It is -25% fall damage.

sand lantern
#

Yeah. 34 vs 36 doesn't seem to be -25%

#

Gonna test it

weary sonnet
#

And it should be additive with other sources of damage resistance.

#

I just double checked, it is set the same way than for the scout’s armor 33% damage resistance.

#

Ah no, there is a difference, the scout is set to Amount so it can add, while for the gunner it is set to StatChange, so it may not stack with other res.
Not sure if it matters or not since the stat PST_FallingResistance is set to stack by default.

#

On experimental:

  • Exploders should now consistently be disarmed with a pickaxe hit to the head across all hazards
sand lantern
#

Interesting

#

Strange. Works perfectly in starting room
Probably need a cheatline to get to its limits

#

Even 90 meters worked out
Can it be UE update fixed T3a mod?

weary sonnet
#

Oh or they made it something like until you touch the floor for the first time?

floral drift
#

-25% fall damage from any height sounds nice actually

#

if it wasn't duration based

sand lantern
#

Now even 90 meters aren't enough to cancel it out so I think it doesn't matter at this point if it's duration based or land touch

weary sonnet
#

At this point we can consider it a one fall use otherwise you could pop a zipline, then jump down a chaft just afterward.

#

Pretty sure that doesn’t work if you touch the ground in between.

Wait, so Hoxxes is a planet, but from the hub area you can clearly see partof it was blown off and is in low orbit. Sam is shown on the hologram over at the mission terminal.

yeah, the blown off part is Dense Biozone

Ok. Gotta read up.

glacial topaz
#

is that on the miner's manual ? or

low hamlet
#

Was there any information what ripped it open like that?
only theories

hexed light
#

And is this based on the game?

And if the pincers, teeth, tentacles, and altogether too many eyes of Hoxxes’ children isn’t enough to scare you away, rumors of even worse and much older, sinister, and alien things down in the deepest excavations abound.

low hamlet
#

probably not

#

Idk if the author of the wiki article wanted to make it sound interesting (sucess) or if there's really sth there.

low hamlet

nope it's not a quote

floral drift
glacial topaz
#

Interesting theory to use that, but not sure it is the best source

sand lantern
#

Sure

#

I have heard another version but I doubt if it's official

#

||Back then DRG decided that separating parts of hoxxes and killing all wildlife in it would be easier, so they sent an expedition to rip it off
But at the end it turned so bad that by the time only one explosive needed to be set the whole team was dead
Except one who was covered in bug blood which made his scent undetectable to bugs
He completed the objective, sacrificing his life
His name was Karl|| < most likely not an official version

low hamlet
#

but an interesting theory for sure

sand lantern
#

@acoustic scarab On rudrg it was decided that deleting outdated data with machine translate would be the best idea

#

Basically erase russian

acoustic scarab
#

Thanks for the heads up!

#

Wait, so Hoxxes is a planet, but from the hub area you can clearly see partof it was blown off and is in low orbit. Sam is shown on the hologram over at the mission terminal.
A tiny correction, Hoxxes IV is a planet. Hoxxes is probably the solar system it is in

sand lantern

Afaik we're on Hoxxes IV b

oo, is this file part of a larger program or a stand-alone script?

just standalone

you can have multi file projects but this one just has the main.py

its what I did today instead of studying for my certification exam 🙂

floral drift

the reason i ask is because i'm trying to get all of the DRG community-made programs organized together so we can collaborate

#

for example, I made the DPS calculator, Surmiran make KARL, and Rawrocopter made DRG Builds, and we all worked together to make KARL: Born Ready in a shared repo

Guys, does anybody know the 'logic' behind the mission map?
How many missions to pick from there are at any given time, and how many of each specific mission type?

I only know that up to 4 biomes can be out of range, although usually only 2 are

low hamlet
#

Guys, does anybody know the 'logic' behind the mission map?
@alpine hamlet if you're talking about why, it's so they can consolidate the player base into a couple biomes, instead of having the player base spread out ||like butter||

alpine hamlet
#

no i meant the mechanics 🙂

sand lantern
#

I can only say that one of crystalline caverns and salt pits are aways active no matter the situation
Never noticed more than two disabled biomes at once
What do you need and what do you need info for? Is it just curiosity?@alpine hamlet

alpine hamlet
#

I want to know what the 'mission pool' is, and if the new missions replace 'slots' of the other ones

#

because while we do have more variety, if it is as I think it is, we also have 'less' to choose from, if you're looking for a certain kind of mission

#

so it seems there's always 20 missions at the moment

sand lantern
#

I noticed once that in exp I got a map update that had like a single mission of certain type so I think new mission interrupts older ones

It seems like something that you notice once or twice, and it looks so logical that you don't bother actually fact-checking yourself, so you go to the wiki and write it.

not the first time i've had to squash a myth, apparently a ton of people think only the gold beer is bugged to give double bonuses. run into that daily.

shell frigate
#

That's why we test stuff

glacial valve
#

that's why i have so many questions (esp. when working on an article)
i need to be sure

#

because misinformation sucks

#

takes ages to correct after the fact because that's usually a task that happens over and over in conversations

tranquil hazel
#

hello wiki folk, if im understanding the formula for pratoeran heavy armor, taking the armor break talent on a weapon does technically improve the speed at which you would knock their armor off? even if its far from an optimal way to kill one

glacial topaz
#

armor break % is literally what is used when calculating armor formulas, if you increase the % it means it will have a higher value

tranquil hazel
#

😆

waxen estuary
#

alright, i have a bit of a question. scout's grappling hook has a max speed stat, what is that? i asked drg chat a bit ago with no luck.

#

it isnt in meters, it just says '1500' for base

glacial topaz
#

could either be the time it takes for the hook to go from gun to wall, or the time for the scout to be pulled by it, no idea, also no idea about the 1500 number

waxen estuary
#

since it does say 'max speed' im thinking it measures velocity, but it isnt in meters or anything so im not quite sure how to interpret that number

#

unless its in cm for some reason? 15 m/s?

stark tulip
#

max speed is the speed at which the player is pulled when grappling

#

only the overcharged winch mod affects it

waxen estuary
#

that makes it go to like 2250 right

stark tulip
#

yes

waxen estuary
#

whatever the meters equivalent is, its +50%

stark tulip
#

it's +750 technically

waxen estuary
#

im asking this chat because im also thinking that the 1500/2250 number is like some sort of internal unit of measurement that the terrain generation uses, is there anything about that?

stark tulip
#

I dunno, it probably relates to however the game measures speed

shell frigate
#

I think you can consider it CM

waxen estuary
#

whatever that number in meters would end up being, by itself it doesnt really have much meaning

#

its relevant to me because i want to see it in relation to special powder OC for boomstick (the shotgun jump one)

#

but i dont think theres any speed info about special powder either

glacial topaz
#

it applies a force, so it depends on your current speed too

waxen estuary
#

it definitely just adds a vector to your current velocity, rather than outright changing it like the grapple does

glacial topaz
#

if you want to compare try recording it

waxen estuary
#

thats a good idea

sand lantern
#
"Data Value": 1000.0```
#

I'd say it's velocity +10m/s in direction opposite to shot

#

Is it close to reality anyway?

sand lantern
#

Yeah, seems fair

waxen estuary
#

yooooo sick

#

i didnt expect to get an exact answer on that thanks

#

wait so you can check the game's code like that?? thats pretty cool

#

i guess while the chat is on the topic of physics its worth asking what the ingame gravity is, if you dont mind me asking

sand lantern
#

9,8 for normal missions and 4 for low gravity

waxen estuary
#

wow 9.8? the dwarves must have really strong calves then if they can stay airborne for that long with just a jump

#

i think thats about it, thanks guys lol

waxen estuary
#

maybe i shouldnt say 'thats about it' when i know i might eventually talk about it more

#

i blasted myself sideways really fast with the shotgun jumps, and took no fall damage, so i assume that fall damage is entirely based on downwards velocity

#

how is fall damage calculated then? im assuming it has a certain threshold, then scales linearly past that

waxen estuary
#

and as far as i can tell, fall damage is based on velocity rather than distance fallen. launched myself at mach 1 towards a curved end of a cave, it quickly curved me directly downwards and it really hurt, even though i didnt really fall that far

sand lantern
#

Yeah, it's velocity

sand lantern
#

I found out that 6.5 meters is a border after which you can't fall damageless

#

Without pushups, he-he

#

So far it looks like that. Seems exponential but if you consider there's all zero before 65, it can fit well into "Linear function but I can't measure"

#

Need someone to double check it

glacial topaz
#

before the mutators page, where did we stored the info on mutators ? trying to find who added the bulk detonator thing

glacial valve
#

it was on the Missions page. i copied over the extended description from there

#

what are you planning?

glacial topaz
#

find who added the bulk detonator thing

glacial valve
#

what do you need the info for

#

i found it btw

glacial topaz
#

found it, they have edited once 3 days ago, for one of the new missions for U32 , but before that, only 3 months ago

#

can ask where they got it from

glacial valve
#

yeah i found that

#

they're pretty active i see

#

or at least, they did something 3 days ago

glacial topaz
#

how do we contact them

glacial valve
#

send a message through the wiki?

#

you can go to their profile

glacial topaz
glacial valve
#

yep

#

i think you can also DM people through the wiki but i am not 100% on it
i got some features locked out since the fandom move

glacial topaz
#

did they post any other mistake on that edit or only the bulk one ?

#

I think I sent the message, but no idea how to confirm it worked

glacial valve
#

i haven't read the entire thing, but i have rewritten everything else in the mutators section that they worked on in that session, and the Missions page now just has the miner's manual descriptions

#

the bulk thing was the only item that kept bugging me as unverified

stark tulip
#

@low hamlet I think I know why there's that difference in assignment mission types
it might choose either egg hunt or salvage for some assignments
my breach cutter assignment had a second egg hunt instead of salvage
might be something similar for promotions

low hamlet
#

time to look at the game files

waxen estuary
#

I found out that 6.5 meters is a border after which you can't fall damageless
@sand lantern just to clarify, is 6.5 meters mean 6.5 m/s velocity or just falling 6.5 meters down

sand lantern
#

Falling from 6.5 abobe the ground, althrough it should be easyto determine speedfor this case

#

That's about 11.29. Then 11 m/s should be the case between no damage and raising damage

waxen estuary
#

im sorta rusty with my calculus but i got about 7.98

#

i think that does check out, shotgun jump does +10m/s, if i jump up, wait for myself to hover, and blast directly upwards, it does hefty fall damage to me

#

a bit over 25 damage i think

sand lantern
#

@waxen estuary can you please try blasting yourself into celling with special powder? That'd tell if damage speed border is bigger than 9 or not

waxen estuary
#

i tried it out, no damage though. i think fall damage only applies directly down, rather than any terrain collision

#

i did two quick blasts, that wouldve been a bit under 20m/s

#

i do think my scout has brain damage though lol

sand lantern
#

So, did you get damage with two blasts at once?

waxen estuary
#

LOL uh, i tried doing the ceiling thing, two shots sending me up, no damage. i did it directly down instead and it instakilled me from full hp

#

which my hp was 145 + 25 shields

sand lantern
#

So no head bonking for us...

#

How did you calculate the speed?

waxen estuary
#

for my shotgun jumps? or for the fall damage border

sand lantern
#

The latter one

waxen estuary
#

you said that you guys found that the damage border starts at 6.5 meters fallen, so with gravity of 9.8m/s^2, i found it would take about 0.814 seconds to fall 6.5m from perfectly still. so the velocity of the player would have reached 7.98m/s within the 0.814s the player was falling

#

given that the developers put in fall damage in the context of velocity rather than distance fallen, they may have made the threshold an integer number, 8 m/s. thats a guess though

sand lantern
#

S=(at^2)/2
Therefore t= √(2*S/a)=√(13/9.8) ~1.14 seconds for me

waxen estuary
#

im sorry, i cant figure out what that means, lol

#

but if it was 1.14s, then the fall damage border would be bigger than 9.8m, because the player has been speeding up for longer than a second

sand lantern
#

You're not going full 9.8 m/s the whole first second, your speed increases from zero

waxen estuary
#

i think i figured out what your equation means now, is there a reason you divide by 2?

#

in S=(at^2)/2

sand lantern
#

That's for coordinates

#

X(t)-x0 = delta x or basically distance

#

Since V0 =0 we get S= (a*t^2)/2

waxen estuary
#

hmm im not sure what all this variables means, or what purpose dividing by 2 serves

#

if you divide by 2, doesnt that half the acceleration from gravity in the equation?

floral drift
#

the equation that Bebe posted is the position of a projectile at a given time, t. aka x(t). x0 is the starting position, v0 is the starting velocity, and a is the acceleration.

#

in this instance, a = -9.8, x0 is the starting height, and v0 = 10

#

assuming that the value found is accurate (10 m/s velocity)

#

this is pretty simple Gen Phys 1 stuff

sand lantern
#

I was talking abour falling from S=6.5 with V0=0

floral drift
#

so you're trying to find what value of t makes x(t) = 0 with parameters x(t) = 6.5 + 0*t - 9.8t^2/2?

sand lantern
#

Yeah

floral drift
#

simple algebra makes it t = sqrt(6.5/4.9) = 1.15...

sand lantern
#

Yeah, I got the same answer

floral drift
#

@waxen estuary does the previous conversation help explain how Bebe derived the answer of 1.15 seconds?

waxen estuary
#

it does plenty, but i still want to know why the acceleration is divided by two

#

it does seem like its consensus that it should be, but i just want to know why anyways

sand lantern
floral drift
#

TL;DR: deriving projectile motion from position over time by integrating twice. Calc 2 things.

waxen estuary
#

ooh ok, i dont remember much at all about calc lol

#

nearly snapped my neck trying to read bebe's napkin notes lol

#

i guess with this relating to the topic, it takes the player about 1.15 seconds to fall down to the fall damage threshold, which means it had just as long to accelerate at 9.8m/s^2

#

am i right about that part?

sand lantern
#

Sure

#

Therefore the speed we get is 9.8*1.15~11.27

waxen estuary
#

yea, im not sure it adds up though

#

because i launched myself at the ground at 10m/s and it did damage me

#

unless that 1000 force figure doesnt correlate to centimeters

floral drift
#

this is where the v0 part comes in

#

with v0 = -10 because of the shotgun jump vertical, now there's 2 negative factors that increase downward speed

waxen estuary
#

ooo thats right, i forgot that gravity mightve thrown that off

floral drift
#

so when you jump up, shoot upwards to propel downwards, the equation is x(t) = Jump Height - 10t - 9.8t^2/2

#

if we can find jump height and plug that in, then more algebra can give us the velocity you hit the ground with. i suspect it will exceed the 11.27 threshold

waxen estuary
#

ill hop in a solo game

#

if i point my laser directly downwards, it reads 1.4m, and at the peak of my jump it reads 2.7m

floral drift
#

so, taking 1.3m as the starting height, it would take 0.6277 sec to hit the ground, for a total velocity of -10 + -9.8*0.6277 = -16.15 m/sec

waxen estuary
#

i guess that checks out then, neato

#

wait a sec .6 seconds?

floral drift
#

wait yeah

#

i typed it in calc wrong

#

wolfram alpha says .122631 sec

#

sorry

#

🤦‍♂️

waxen estuary
#

the .6 seconds must be for the normal jump, but i have less time to accelerate if i blast myself downwards

floral drift
#

moving on: the downward push at -10 m/sec with a=-9.8 from a height of 1.3m takes .1226 sec to reach ground, which when plugged in is -11.2 m/sec

#

which is very very similar to the 6.5m drop from standstill's -11.27

#

so the question is: does shooting yourself downward with Special Powder do the same amount Fall Damage as falling 6.5m?

waxen estuary
#

some inconsistency is maybe i dont shotgun jump down right at the peak of the jump

#

but i am taking a decent chunk of damage from it

#

my 25hp shield then a chunk more

floral drift
#

is there a convenient 6.5m ledge anywhere nearby?

waxen estuary
#

i'll have to look lol

#

i made one, it says 6.5m on the dot

#

but idk, rounding probably

floral drift
#

do you take any fall damage from that height?

waxen estuary
#

i do, a bit

floral drift
#

🤔

waxen estuary
floral drift
#

i'm gonna hop on DRG now and look for something quick...

floral drift
#

i think i have a guess as to why we're having trouble resolving Special Powder's large fall damage from a 1.3m drop

#

i think Special Powder is more than 10 m/sec

#
"Data Value": 1000.0```

Force = Mass * Acceleration, not a velocity

waxen estuary
#

i dont think the property name is literal

#

it uses the same sort of value as scout's grappling hook stat 'Max Speed', which is a velocity

#

and special powder does just seem to add velocity to the player

#

but i think i have an idea to test

#

since acceleration by gravity is 9.8m/s^2, and the suspected value of special powder is 10m/s, then if fall for one second it should just about cancel out and i should briefly hover

#

actually should i record this?

floral drift
#

but, 10 m/sec that doesn't make sense to me. if that was the case then a vertical jump should only go up around 5.1m. my memory tells me it's more in the 14m range, isnt it?

#

i'm going to test to see what the height is

waxen estuary
#

im just doing this test assuming that special powder does add 10m/s. if it doesnt add up then this ingame mystery unit is clearly not centimeters

sand lantern
#

I tested it yesterday. It is 1 second for a jump to be depleted and another one to get back to ground

#

You probably remember low gravity one

floral drift
#

jumping and shooting simultaneously got me up to ~16m, jumping then shooting at apex got me around 10m

#

🤔 i have another idea. math is about to furiously ensue

sand lantern
#

Are you double shooting?

floral drift
#

nope

sand lantern
#

Oh right, as you jump you add yet another value to starting velocity

#

Remind me to make a zero gravity mod

waxen estuary
#

im using macros to help me get more concrete results

#

40ms delay between jump and shoot, 16.0 meter jump

#

200ms delay, 14.0 meter jump

bold plover
#

I know where jump height is.

floral drift
#

so, like i said, a 10 m/sec velocity would only yield around 5.1m jump height

#

14-16m is way beyond that

waxen estuary
#

yea lol

#

mmm

#

i think we should figure out what this mystery unit is

#

it shouldnt be that hard, if we know the acceleration and displacement, theres just one missing variable to solve for

weary sonnet
#

Just saying, if you want to calculate the damage taken base on the health/shield bars removed, you will need the good health value.
It isn’t 145 but ~148.56
Base health and shield bar width with ui at 100% and 1080p is 228px.

waxen estuary
#

oh right, i do remember reading about healthy mod making hp wierd, thanks

weary sonnet
#

(110+20)*1.0455*1.0455*1.0455

#

I know lacking that info messed up my first tests on damage taken, the weird thing is the armor mastery, not healthy though.

waxen estuary
#

so in that shotgun jumping into the ground, i lost my 25 shield hp and about 38/228 of my ~148.56 hp

#

then from the normal 6.5m fall i took 28/228 of my 25 shield hp

#

.. im not sure what to do with this information right now actually LOL

weary sonnet
#

On the screenshot you gave, the hp bar is only 206px wide, you were not using a 100% ui size but only 90% it seems.

waxen estuary
#

oh then scratch that 228 bit

weary sonnet
#

~52.4 damage for the shotgun jump into the ground. (206 px shield damage + 38/206 px health damage)

waxen estuary
#

ouch.

weary sonnet
#

~3.40 damage for the normal 6.5 m fall (updated to only include the 28px shield damage)

waxen estuary
#

oh, dont include the health portion of that one, i just didnt heal from the shotgun jump lol

weary sonnet
#

Ah, only the shield? ok redoing it.

waxen estuary
#

thanks btw

#

lool yea i think theres a bit of a difference between 52.4 and 3.4

#

might wanna have higher UI size for more accuracy if were damage testing

weary sonnet
#

The accuracy is already pretty good.

#

At least for the first one, for the shield damage you may need to increase the jump height.

#

Going from 206 to 228 px is a bit better for tests in general, but it won’t change much in that case.

waxen estuary
#

whats the extent of modding in this game? i want to measure more precisely in meters but laser only gives tenths of meters

weary sonnet
#

Hex mods allow to replace any text by a text of the same lenght and any non default numerical value.

#

As for blueprint mods I don’t understand them well, but it seems they allow to add some custom game logic.

#

So with mods altering fall damage received (via scout’s armor) or max health (via healthy) or gravity (via low gravity missions) would be doable, but not making the laser pointer more accurate afaik.

waxen estuary
#

hmmmm

#

for figuring out the mystery units for velocity, i can see how it could be tested

#

no gravity, just have a flat wall a certain distance away, then have the player pushed a certain force towards the wall and time it

#

but that just measures speed, not like unit measurements of terrain

#

and i think we will need specifics on terrain if we want definite fall damage calculations

weary sonnet
#

The unit of measurements of terrain is cm in the files and basically meters for the pointer.

waxen estuary
#

well nevermind, that's that problem solved LMAO

weary sonnet
#

It is not labelled as such, but I could deduced that much from the data I gathered so far.

#

Among other a dwarf height is 1.5 m and the terrain scanner’s origin is at the center of a dwarf head.

waxen estuary
#

lol im thinking like 'hmm maybe if i use mods to do this specific thing in this specific scenario in this specific way i can do tests' but like i still have no idea how it works

sand lantern
#

Actually implementing jump height instead of jump velocity makes perfect sense as it's much easier for developers to interact with

floral drift
#

wouldn't be jump height though, because it can still be used for horizontal movement

sand lantern
#

It'd be the same as velocity you had on ground before jumping and probably in-air movement velocity added as you can change your position mid air
Am I wrong somewhere?

weary sonnet
#

@ Gamer Moment if you want to test some stuff that we could add to the wiki / that isn’t fully document yet and mods could help for that feel free to ask, I can provide them for the tests.
It could be better to ask first if the thing you want to test is known or not first though in some case, we have the data, but are only missing a few bits or just time to write the pages.

waxen estuary
#

ok i found arctic's mod loader, and im downloading unreal engine from.. epic games sto- 🤢

weary sonnet
#

I can do some simples mods that run without any loader, if it is just for a test.
For artic’s loader, v3 is for U31.5, v4 is for U32.

waxen estuary
#

oh cool, nevermind that

#

i might look into mods more later, maybe i can think of stuff to make

thank you!

#

i'm starting work on some DRG themed maps for Crystal Caves HD, that's why I ask 🙂 let's see how far I get.

acoustic scarab
#

Do we know how the earthquakes in Magma Core generate? Are the crevices completely random, do they home in on dwarves?

low hamlet
#

they definitely home in on dwarves. i dunno the specifics tho

stark tulip
#

they do have a chance to generate near each dwarf yes

#

I've seen multiple generate when we're separated

acoustic scarab
#

In today's EDD one earthquake formed a crevice right on the uplink, and then the fuel cell dropped in another crevice. It was painful and fun, but my friends started to suspect that the earthquakes target objectives as well

stark tulip
#

I doubt that
they're just very wide and generate near players

#

so it makes sense it would happen to cross a nearby objective

floral drift
#

i dont have any proof of this claim, but i swear earthquakes target resupply pods. multiple times i've called for a resupply, an earthquake will "randomly" start and then "randomly" open a crevasse beneath where the resupply beacon is, and then i'll have to take a bunch of fire damage from the crevasse to get my ammo

stark tulip
#

I'm thinking both cases are just negativity bias

#

memories of crevices forming on objectives and resupply pods stick out more than when it didn't happen

sand lantern
#

I am definetly not used to look into anything but weapons but there are some things you may find interesting:
"Property": "bUseLegacySpawningBehavior", "Tag Data": true
"Property": "EmitterName", "Name": "Pebbles"
Found in quake crevasse folder

waxen estuary
#

pebbles probably just vfx

sand lantern
#

"Property": "bHiddenInGame", "Tag Data": true

stark tulip
#

yeah
as far as determining where to spawn it, that's probably all in the source code

sand lantern
#

There is probably complex timer for this event. I will look into it and we'll see if they generate randomly or not

#

Oh wait

#

Seeing the BP_MagmaQuakeCrevasse_Trap name I'd rather bet that there are pebbles that summon crevasses

stark tulip
#

are you sure that what you're looking at isn't just the associated visual effect?

#

because there is an effect when a crevice opens up

low hamlet
#

^

sand lantern
#

Nah, I'm not sure. Can't be sure working with this type for the first time

#

"Property": "CanCharacterStepUpOn",

#

At this point I just want to disable some hiding components and test it

shell frigate
#

That seems for the Glacial strata crevices

sand lantern
#

There are separate folders for IceCrevasse and QuakeCrevasse

#

Hopefully game won't crash instantly...

#

There is some sort of green thing underneath which quickly disappeared

#

It's still not proof, documenting in case next crevasses will appear with same rock formation

#

What if I turn off pebbles?..

sand lantern
#

@ Ely any info on magma crevasses?
I suppose there's a trap like a pressure plate generated randomly across the map, it triggers the tell file which consists of particles and collapse which carves crevasses

weary sonnet
#

I don’t know much about them other than the fact they are not time related and seems to generate only near players when moving.

sand lantern
#

||Futhermore knowing GSG I think they won't implement entirely new mechanics if they can sneak in a good solution||

weary sonnet
#

Feel free to ping me at any time btw, I only receive alerts on pc, so no risk of bothering me/waking me up.
(Well not needed for the wiki channel, since it is one of the few I always read.)

#

Indeed.

#

The glacial strata crevices are simple, but I don’t think the trigger is the same for magma core, I manage to get more than 10 fissures in the same room at some point. My guess was that it may be related to the distance traveled rather than fix points on the grounds.

#

Otherwise getting so much fissures in the same room seems too much even if we end up trigerring all of the pebbles.

sand lantern
#

Okay then, time for walking on the same spot

weary sonnet
#

That was only a guess, I have no proof so far, what is sure is that moving around a lot tend to cause more fissure.

#

So the pebble theory could still work.

#

I tried at some point to have one player moving, the other not moving, the only fissures generated were near the moving player.

#

The trigger conditions for the quake was among the questions we sent to the devs about 2 month ago, but we still haven’t received an answer afaik.

sand lantern
#

I ran over the same spot twice and it only triggered the 2nd time

low hamlet
#

might be delay

sand lantern
#

Thought of it as well

low hamlet
#

this is good information

weary sonnet
#

Well now the fissure is above ground? or you just spawned somme green random transparent box?

low hamlet
#

that's the trigger box

#

i think

sand lantern
#

I changed all hiders in trap file to be false. But that's not a trigger

#

I walked past all these things

#

Nothing yet

stark tulip
#

maybe those are just where crevices can potentially spawn if you've walked through them and are still nearby?

sand lantern
#

I just had an earthquake 10 secs after I left drop pod in egg mission

acoustic scarab
#

Thank you for all this digging

sand lantern
#

Honestly I don't know how to test the initiators of earthquake, but I can DM a mod showing... Well, these are possible crevasses I suppose but I haven't gotten a single quake with crevasses since

sand lantern
#

CSC_MagmaCaves_EarthQuakes

"Property": "QuakeFirstDelayMinMax",```
These two values are 120 and 3
#

Oh wait, wrong

#

120-360 and 3-60

#

Sometimes mission just doesn't have earthquakes

But I think this is initiated in magma core mission generation scripts

True for AS

weak cedar
#

"Repressurization Time is the equivalent of a wait time before reload and overheat for other weapons. It’s how long you need to wait in seconds after you stop firing or after you reached the minimum pressure before you can fire again." - This doesn't seem to be true

glacial topaz
#

explain

#

... visual editor don't wanna load

weak cedar
#

If you stop firing on the cryo gun, you need not wait the repressurization time in seconds before firing again (the part about after reaching minimal pressure is still true)

glacial topaz
weak cedar
#

I want to add some information to the wiki. I've never done any wiking before, how would I go about it?

#

I mean, not the obvious stuff

#

Are there any style guides I should read first that kind of thing

glacial topaz
#

well, first it would be nice to have an account, not needed, but nice, next just go to a page , click edit / source edit, and do it, just make sure you check how it looks before / after to not break anything, even if you mess up it won't be hard to fix it

weak cedar
#

So I can just make changes, Is there an approval process?

glacial topaz
#

not really (othen than us checking any changes done), you can check in here before posting if you prefer

weak cedar
#

Is there a wiki article on damage types?

glacial topaz
#

there is not, since there isn't anything too interesting about it, and we have a page for status effects, we discussed about it here days ago

sand lantern
#

By the way internal damage type was added according to experimental patchnotes

weak cedar
#

Yeah, I wanted to add clarifications to explosive reload type OCs (they happen when you start the reload animation, they are not effected by weakpoint shot from the proccing shot, they are effected by generic damage boosters like ifg, they only proc when original shot does damage to health, born ready perc does not trigger nor remove the explosive/detonator)

#

These are afaik all true on live, but I imagine there will be a lot of attention to these OCs one the patch hits

sand lantern
#

I can tell you a bit more: electrifying reload triggers on both reloading and tapping R, so you're able to use it without reloading by cancelling animation of manual reload

weak cedar
#

Yeah, I think they all work like that, thats what I meant by them happening at the start of the reload animation

people were confused whether the x3 meant there were 3 weakpoints or if the weakpoint did x3 damage

glacial topaz
#

can I just remove the "?"

waxen estuary
#

it does have the cross, to indicate multiplier

low hamlet
#

we could just add damage on the end

#

so 3x damage

#

to remove confusion

waxen estuary
#

tru

#

or change from "Weakpoint" to "Weakpoint bonus", global change

hmm, might look weird on swarmer

how often does the achievement page gets updated ? I was going to do it, but wasn't sure if we should wait for U32, and it wasn't working for me

sand lantern
#

There was only a single achievement update, U32 is the second
As for wiki you can check the page history yourself

By the way internal damage type was added according to experimental patchnotes
@sand lantern
It was already there, it's also uses for the thermal choc damage.

sand lantern
#

Now I know more, thanks

floral drift
#

i believe Elyth had mentioned that Internal Damage was used to destroy OMEN modules in some capacity, too

sand lantern
#

What do you mean?

floral drift
#

i don't properly know, but i got the impression that upon event completion when the OMEN modules self-destruct in that cool 1 2 3 explosion chain uses Internal Damage in some capacity

#

Elyth can correct me with what really happens

weary sonnet
#

For the temperature shock, it was DMG_Disintegrate, not DMG_Internal.
My guess is that the internal damage is used to link the health of the 2-4 modules for each level of the guntower since the totla health of a module is divided between the actuals weakpoints, but I have no proof of that.
The only reference to internal damage I found in U31.5 are in the following files:

FSD\Content\GameElements\GameEvents\GuntowerEvent\GunTower_Weakpoint\DMG_InternalDamage```

Hello all- have a question about cooling the Power Drills... When the drills get hot, I've been hitting reload (drills grind together) in order to cool them faster. Let me be clear, it *appears to me that the drills cool significantly faster using that reload animation. I had heard this described awhile ago as: "fanning the drills."
I cant seem find this mentioned anywhere now, except for reddit & steam posts that are over a year old. So I'm asking for for confirm/deny from an *official source, like @weary sonnet or a dev (not sure which dev to tag) Incidentally, I also use the reload animation to cool the mini-gun, again, it *appears to me to be significantly faster cooling. (posting same mssg in drg-chat sub)

stark tulip
#

It could be it's just because that animation counts as not using the drills, and you can't see how fast it's cooling during it

hidden sky
#

Yep, Elythnwaen did respond to me other post in drg-chat, kinda bummed its not doing anything.

low hamlet
#

well, at least it's cool

acoustic scarab
#

I vaguely remember a Reddit post where someone said "whenever I see greenbeard Drillers, I tell them reloading while cooling the drills cools them down faster because I enjoy confusing people"

#

Don't get bamboozled

Guess who woke up 3-4 hours earlier to be ready for the update on the wiki

analog rock
#

You ?

#

I'm good at guessing.

glacial topaz
#

pffff
now I just need to know when it is safe to add the changes

wary cove
#

Update is live

analog rock
#

You can, it's up

wary cove
#

So why wait

glacial topaz
#

completely forgot how to access the OC section to edit it, or could it just be that it is not loading properly

weary sonnet
#

You can click preview, then the template link will be on the bottom of the page, you will need to click on 'Templates used in this preview:' for it to show

glacial topaz
#

there we go, perfect

weary sonnet
#

If you know directly the name of the template, you can also enter it in the search bar (you need to include the word template, so the full search should be 'Template:Overclock table breach cutter')

#

I usually use the second solution, but the first one is more convenient when you don’t know the template name.

glacial topaz
#

anyone knows those values ? I skipped them... -

Increased bonus of the T1 High Capacity Magazine mod
- Decreased bonus of the T2 Expanded Ammo Bags mod
weary sonnet
#

I should be able to find them, but I need to finish something else first, so in maybe 15 min.Ç
Let me know for which weapon it is if possible.

glacial topaz

ops, breach cutter

sand lantern
#

T1 was 2>3

glacial topaz
#

only thing I am missing and anyone can check at least ing ame

sand lantern
#

Looking into it rn

#

+8>+6 for T2

#

This is all related to the fact BC is now operating on multiples of three instead of multiples of two and four

glacial topaz
#

:| doc I was using to get the values just stopped working

#

it is back!

#

I will double check those later then

sand lantern
#

I checked these in game

Are the promotion tier paintjobs like this still unlockable? I can't find them on the wiki.

acoustic scarab
#

No, I don't think there are paintjobs tied to promotion tiers

dreamy turret
#

Alright ty.

glacial topaz
#

wonder what is the best way to reword it to explain the new changes

#

in Patchnotes :"CONTROLS: When carrying gems and other heavy items you can now throw on both [LEFT AND RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON] on PC or [LEFT AND RIGHT TRIGGER] on XBox. We made this change to accommodate the Fuel Canister (used in the Escort Duty mission) which is carried like a gem but also has functionality like a weapon or tool. In the future we could imagine having you find other tools and weapons that could be used in a similar way.

AUTO CANCEL THROW: If you do not release the throw button after reaching max throwing power the throw will auto-cancel after a short time. "

austere fossil
#

...by holding either the [FIRE] key ("Left Mouse Click" by default) or the [PICKAXE] key ("Right Mouse Click" by default) before releasing it. After being held at max power for a short time the throw will auto-cancel.
Don't remember what it's called in the options menu, assuming it just says PICKAXE or MELEE

well, that is one thing I never checked if they changed in game, the controls
