Add back atomic bomb range bonus

[Qon]

With 1.0 I can't launch nukes at the corner of my screen at full zoom out any more, like I could in 0.18. I want that range back, for atomic bombs. (I don't think other rockets had the same super long range)
Also it would be great if my nuketrons shot atomic bombs at this extended atomic bomb max range (not for regular rockets if possible). If their range with atomic bomb was as far as my characters range with atomic bombs in 0.18 then nukespiders would be a bit more viable.

It feels like the AoE is also smaller in 1.0. Not sure though.

I'm not used to modifying prototypes and this might possibly be trivial for someone else (or not, I heard the wiki is still missing spidertron prototype and the spidertron prototype is weird in other ways).

Not tested, but must be:

Code: Select all

data.raw.ammo["atomic-bomb"].ammo_type.range_modifier = 2.25 -- in vanilla was 1.5

or

Code: Select all

data.raw.gun["spidertron-rocket-launcher-1"].attack_parameters.range = 54 -- was 36
data.raw.gun["spidertron-rocket-launcher-2"].attack_parameters.range = 54
data.raw.gun["spidertron-rocket-launcher-3"].attack_parameters.range = 54
data.raw.gun["spidertron-rocket-launcher-4"].attack_parameters.range = 54

Thanks, it works

What does 2.25 mean? A multiplier?
Is 2.25 the old value from 0.18?
And is 1.5 the base value in 1.0?

2.25 is vanilla range_modifier 1.5, but multiplied by 150% for your request.
The 0.18 has the same 1.5 value.

There is no spidertron in 0.18 and you can shoot with rocketlouncher only; it has range 36:

Code: Select all

data.raw.gun["rocket-launcher"].attack_parameters.range = 36

The 0.18 has the same 1.5 value.

Do you know why the range of atomic bomb is less in-game in 1.0 than 0.18 when the values in the prototypes are the same? Seems weird. Is a it a bug?

I haven't tested them, so I'm not sure that they are really same or not same. Just feeling is not enough for the sure opinion.
