the mechs weapons do not seem to damage anything UNLESS its does AOE/Explosive damage, like the missiles, and the? PPC? charge attack thing?

basically only explosive damage seems to damage things, the rest don't damage NPC's or anything at all.

they REACT to it as if they WERE hit by it, but take zero damage, hell, I've even tested on kliener in case it was just for some reason very MINIMAL damage even. but neither, just nothing.

Unless its explosive damage, bullets, autocannons, lasers, basically projectile style weapons, dont do anything.

but missiles and anything that explodes, does.

Are you sure you don't have a mod that messes with friendly fire? And if not, make sure there's not a script installed on your end that manipulates BlastDamage or projectile entities in general.

There were a few times when I entered a mech and the screen went completely black and all sound was gone, but the HUD was still there.

@pootisMayo seems you got a conflict going on check to see if gmod legs 3 is installed and if it is disable it and test it because that addon does effect addons aswell as far as i know.

NPCs seem to have a problem where they aim as if the player is standing on top of the mech. Mostly this just causes issues with the Battle armor and Elemental suit.

Edit: I've tested it with the other light mechs and the problem persists. With the bigger ones, they just aim between the legs.

Crap, I have a lot of mods, I don't THINK so, I got rid of friendly fire ages agoooo??

you know any general mods off the top of your knowledge that does that, while I search through crap to look myself? could help in case I have any mods that do that unintentionally messing it up?

https://steamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2017345249
thats the collection I made currently in use, IDK, I'm gonna browse it myself to see if I use anything like that, IDK if you wanna help my dumb face, but if so, that would be appreciated, I tend to forget about mods like that, tend to...

well, mess up mods like these XD!

hell, another mod I have thats a sentry turret mod based on some game, shoots THROUGH NPC's like combine, maybe if I have a mod that ♥♥♥♥♥ this one up, I might get a two-fer and fix that one too LOL.

thanks for the info, hopefully I find what ever might be messing it up.

the funny thing is I was going to look at the "problems" tab gmod has, and it just CRASHED, so I couldn't even see if it was conflicting or having errors. might try again and hope for no crashing

well friendly fire stuff is out of the question, usually that stuff is specific and has settings for it, couldn't find any.

and anything that modifies damages or projectiles, are SPECIFICALLY for THEIR weapons SOLELY, stuff like ArcCW, GDCW, etc, the only things I have that modify weapon effects, settings, etc, are specifically towards their own mods entities/weapons.

unless mods like
"background NPC's"(I can damage them normally)
ARCCW
Gredwitch
ASTW2
GDCW
or some other random weapon/entity mods I have do that without me knowing, I'm pretty sure they only effect their OWN things.

I might look to see if I have something that changes VANILLA stuff, but I think the ONLY thing I have that DOES that, effects the vanilla weapons, via looks, sounds, and "feel" but nothing like damage or does anything like projectile entities.

well, ARCCW has projectile stuff, but again, I'm pretty sure like "CW" and "CW2.0" its only its own weapons/sweps, not all of them...

so in the end, unless anyone checks my collection, and sees something that I didn't, I wouldn't know.

the only thing as well causing ERRORS, is a warhammer thing, and an undertale knife I believe.

I know the knife is only having an issue with its own code, its always done that, but I guess I can remove all my warhammer weapon stuff to see, if that fixes it, I'll say that, but until then, I guess?

consider it not the issue I guess? I'll do both mods just to see, since they're the only ones creating errors.

yeah nahh, its not the mods creating errors either.

to note, teh mod isn't even causing errors, its as if the mod itself is like, missing code that doesn't cause damage, so nothing seems wrong.

the projectiles "hit" but no blood, or anything, no reactions.

in fact.

its the equivalent of shooting someone without laser tag gear, with laser tag guns, from behind, and the guns make no noise...

Can you make larger mechs either trample or ignore normal NPCs? Mechs suffer from poor movement when loads of NPCs are present, due to constantly getting blocked.

this.
this as well lol.

the mechs can't have things welded or attached to them for some reason.
which is kinda a bummer if you try to add shields or something
also they really don't play nice with a cloaking field

I think thats because the welding and such atleast they aren't really considered a prop, or anything like a vehicle, but maybe more of an advanced, controlled NPC, which, technically, makes it a PC XD!

I know theres player weld/ropes and such, try those mods, the ones that let you weld and or rope things to players and or NPC's, I might actually get those as well, just to see lol.

but yeah.
TL;DR:
its considered an entity like an NPC, rather than a vehicle/prop/normal stuff that can be welded or effected by certain tool gun properties.

check out mods that can do that I guess, that'd be my fix.

also, by play nice with the cloaking field, whatchu mean?

Not sure. Will need to scour my 200+ addons I got to see what really causes it.

I know a lot of mods conflicted with the old parakeets pill pack stuff, and the drones 1, 2, rewrite mods, IDK if you have those, I know third person mods generally don't mess with it, I have one that I never use ***lul***

but I have the drones mods, just not hte parakeets pill pack stuff, and I KNOW those tend to ♥♥♥♥ with a lot of camera or visual stuff sometimes.
drones hasn't messed with it.

thats my input of hopefully being useful lul.
