PC Demolitionist Fragmentation rounds and the Pulverizer...

[TheTCREngineer]

Sorry for not using the bug template but here's a summary: If you equip fragmentation rounds on a demolitionist and use the Pulverizers alt fire, the damage is dealt to an infinite distance, as long as they aren't hiding behind a wall or is outside of the pulverizers damage cone/radius. It also causes a slight lag everytime you hit a zed with the explosive attack. This was done in solo. Video on this will be up in a bit.

Edit: Video can be seen here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1kCLCNPASs&feature=youtu.be

During the last 40 seconds the game started to lagspike, freeze and just go to hell, I haven't even spawned a cluster of zeds or done anything to cause that lag so it's assumed that something with the pulverizer has caused this.

I loved how it killed groups of enemies infront of me with its wide explosion radius. I'm hoping they fix this bug but still allow the pulverizer be the ultimate group killing weapon with the fragmentation perk.

For every alt-fire explosion the damage radius increases in geometric progression, multiplied by the skill's x1.5 extra radius value:
225 -> 337.5 -> 506.25 -> further than moon after #42 -> etc...

With the recent addition of Destroyer Of Worlds / Concusive Rounds VFX support for pulverizer, which currently does not work because whole piece of code put under multi line comment, Pulverizer as well got support for Fragmentation Rounds, all that in PrepareExplosionTemplate() function.

However, in here it never really implies the default radius value, instead in continues to increment the current one, which makes every next explosion x1.5 wider than previous.

Yes. We are aware this bug and it should be fixed in the future update.

Recent bug fix didn't work out

ExplosionTemplate.Damage = ExplosionTemplate.default.Damage;
ExplosionTemplate.DamageRadius = ExplosionTemplate.default.DamageRadius;
ExplosionTemplate.DamageFalloffExponent = ExplosionTemplate.default.DamageFalloffExponent;

Pulverizer now uses default damage and radius values from KFGameExplosion.uc which are 200 and 500.
