For those "Surrounded by Spawn" moments, try force firing (pink) at the square immediately in front of you (fire line 1 square long). Haven't had the guts to try it out for real, works in test though! Only seems to work on the straight lines, not across diagonals. Bug or feature? Feature gets my vote!

I was really hoping the Guardian was going to blow up.
 Still worth knowing about though...               |

doesn't do more then just shooting in the reversed direction for me. bug i think.
hm, after antother test, when there was a force field behind guardians back i had a crash. check the shot i wonder if this will happen if to direct fire in forcefield with a normal shot... Edit: Yup, in hotseat guardians direct fire into forcefield crash's the client when processing. (it seems when the system is trying to "reflect" the ball) I think if we will try this in an online game the Codo Server will crash.

Definitely a bug. You can use it to shoot through indestructible walls

Quote: As the Grey specialist for our team, I'd say this definitely confirms it as a feature! Funny how one xenomorph's bug is another xenomorph's feature. Only joking. This needs fixing. Fast. I can imagine numerous situations where that would come in handy! It's on a par with the mouseholing bug IMHO. Woohoo! A cool new bug and I found it! With some help from Bothered of course...does that mean it gets named after us like with comets?  |

Does this mean that I can void a game if I have a handy guardian and forcefield, since presumably niether player will be able to continue if the server crashes processing the turn...

DDer, i think you should have written this ^^ here as this topic is mostly about the other bug/exploit - ability of Guardian to shoot through the metal walls
and if we crash Codo Server... You imagine what would it be, if to mention that Joolz isn't paying attention to LSN lately...

i found a possibility to make a "shot back" with warper (in some predifined circumstances), but there's no chance to do this trick through the wall for him
