Enable self-reflect damage fix plugin.
-
I would like to stop taking 100+ damage from iron bomber reflects please please please please
(note not actually maining this season just more about the principle).Plugin already exists (bless you twiikuu, scroll down to sm_fix_reflect_self_damage 1). Have not tested it in eons so I guess there’s the very minor offchance that it is bugged in some way but I highly doubt it.
Think rgl servers already come with tf2-comp-fixes so not a huge infrastructure overhaul, correct me if I’m wrong.
If you’re anti-plugin on some strange principle (Valve will bug fix i swear ! ) idk I hope your matches get paused while enemy medic is healing. This bug has existed since like 2014 and was not fixed in JI, actually mickey mouse mentality if you think there’s a good chance it’ll be fixed soon. Edit: Also bug fix plugins are already enabled in rgl like stick det delay (arguably more fundamental than this), ramp bugs, and crossbow hitreg shenanigans.
If you’re anti-plugin because you think this is a balance change and that it is God-Intended that pyro can take up to 170 damage from a reflected detonator then idk I guess you got me there.

YES PLEASE!!

please and ty

Alternatively I will accept the iron bomber being banned because that would be very funny.
-
Genuinely one of the most frustrating mechanics in the game, please fix.

I never realized this was a thing, but after reading this post/watching the vid, I watched a pyro obliterate himself in a pub yesterday after reflecting an iron bomber. lol Probably one of those cases of not realizing how often you see it until it’s on your mind.
But yeah I don’t see a reason not to fix it, as long as the plugin actually works and isn’t bugged in some other regard.

Yeah, provided there are no issues this is a good change. Reflect jumping is cool, but besides that pyro shouldn’t be punished for successfully hitting a reflect, especially on the iron bomber. Nothing like reflecting something right before it blows up in your face or reflecting a roller and skyboxing yourself for obscene damage.
