Suggested New Projectile: Blast Force

Figured I'd put it here, too, because things happen quicker here, and if it ends up in GZdoom, chances are it will end up in zdoom (And likewise...)

I'd like to recommend a new property for Projectiles: Blastforce. It would define how far back an enemy would be pushed when it is hit.

Why? Well, currently, this property can only be set by changing a property in the weapon's decorate code (I think it's kickback.) This means that it's useless for monsters. I want to make a monster shoot a projectile that deals low damage but knocks the player far away, and I can't figure out how to do that.

You know, I was just hopping on to suggest this myself, that would be a much more efficient way of doing things in DECORATE than the current way it's implimented (I assume anyway)

So for all its worth, you've got my vote

I didn't know it was currently implemented.

How?

Implimented as in the weapon.kickback property, thats all I know of it

weapon.kickback is so clipped that in order to really shove anything around it requires hitting an object multiple times with the same force.
