Tied Threads?

[JC12]

I found a broken elevator in the DXI Ruins and investigated by jumping down to it to see what was there. A tunnel with a dead end.

Naturally a LAM was used and a hole appeared. Blew up the loose spots in the floors and out pops some MiB's and WiB's. After killing them I get a "Primary Goal Complete" (Had to click 'Show Completed Goals' to see what it was). I didn't have that Goal in the first place and there didn't seem to be any other way into that area... Was this intentional? Did I do this at the wrong time?

Also stuck after the Lava jumping Puzzle. Spoke to the Ghost of Gwog, carried on, got to the rooms where there's a Security Bot among a Plasma Rifle and the sorts and 2 locked doors. I took out the Power box but can't see anything else of use, but I know I've got to find a Computer...

Pointers?

There is a safe which opened when you blew up the power box. Go back and retrieve its contents. Its the room with a bot on a raised platform and a few broken tables.

[JC12]

Ah that safe. I never thought of checking back there...

It's 6am and I'm tired. Been testing this new dxogg.dll

-EDIT- There we go, now I see where the "Threads" come in.

Uh you're not supposed to be able to jump down to that elevator, are you playing with godmode on?

[yns88]

Perhaps he used the trick of dropping a grenade and then falling on it (landing on a grenade in mid-flight causes no fall damage)

[Jonas]

No, there is specifically a paintrigger down there that kills you if you touch the top of the elevator.

[JC12]

Jumped on to the elevator (Got the pain trigger like you said) and quickly darted off into the Cavern.

Perhaps it should be changed to Instant Kill?

[Jonas]

Man it deals 200 points of Crushed damage every 0.000001 seconds... I thought that was instakill O_o

Where is the power distribution box? I crossed the chasm, so i'm where Gwag is. If it's in the other direction i'll be most displeased hahah. I have neither the key for the glass locked door (room with the bot and engery regen bot) nor the code for the mirrored slanted thing. Was i supposed to have come across one of these earlier?

The room with the radioactive shit.

[Thehotdogman]

Awww man. I was kinda hoping that was just there to leech health, y'know a dead end. Alright, better look harder.

[Jonas]

If you have a LAM (or grab the one in the doorway to the room with the safe), just chuck it in there and it should take out the power box - then you won't have to go in there at all.

Similar effects can be achieved with a 20mm grenade or a GEP rocket.

Heh, too specific. Try making it hit once per 0.1 seconds and make two overlapping ones instead. I've ran into this problem myself working on a gimmick "ridiculously hard bullshit" DX map for a friend of mine

[Jonas]

Hmm thanks, I'll try that. Also raised the damage to 500 just to be safe.
