    Interesting concept, what exactly is the chance that it will go through percentage-wise?

    Let's see. Max value is 4. Random function generates values from 1 to 4 (max value). So the chance is 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%. You can change it in the script.

    You forgot to remove the print, some slight cleanup
    Code:
    bool doesCollideWithBlob(CBlob@ this, CBlob@ blob)
    {
        if(blob.getName() == "arrow")
        {
            return XORRandom(4) == 0? false : true;
        }
        return true;
    }
    You could additionally check the arrow type, so only regular arrows would ignore collisions.
    Code:
    #include "ArcherCommon.as";
    
    if(blob.get_u8("arrow type") == ArrowType::normal)
    {
        // perform random check
    }

    Thanks, Skinney. I already made an update, will post it tomorrow. But also, you did "!=" instead of "==", if we only need to check if it's normal arrow. I think holding random value as a variable is better, than doing everything without it, that's why I don't do something like you wrote.

    So the weakest class which has little protection now has no protection at all? Why dont u make a mode that makes all archers die when a knight looks at them?

    Stop fucking trolling you moron. Archers can stomp knights, can be 2x faster, can climb fucking trees, can fight at melee range too (fcking triple shots). Archers that camp just can be killed by archers now - what's the damn problem man!!!!

    Also people can do whatever mods their want. Why you're so fucking butthurt?
