<div class="IPBDescription">hive not taking damage from guns?</div> When I am running around my map checking it out after a compile, (I have had sv_cheats set to 1 and 0) if I try shooting a hive, it is not taking damage. If I knife it, it does take damage. Myself and a couple of buddies played a little game the other day to check balance issues, and the same thing, wasnt able to shoot the hive, but could knife it, or siege it. Now, it APPEARS it wasnt taking damage, but thats not to say it wasnt. Has anyone ever experienced this or know why this is? I am having a playtest on wednesday with a large server, needless to say it would be kind of embarrassing if nobody was able to shoot the hive down <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> Help on this would be appreciated. Thanx in advance.

    I've noticed if you start a single player game you can't build anything or hurt anything without sv_cheats turned on.

    The problem if the hive starts to squirm, it is taking damage.

    But if you're shooting at it with your LMG, it's going to heal itself back faster then you can pump lead into it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Knife is better because it does 30 damage (3x 1 LMG bullet) so it's a lot faster.

    Is it possible the info_location could be affecting the hive in some way? I have it on the top of the rooms, with the null brush applied. I think the brush goes thru the hives since they are placed up by the ceiling of the hives. Well I will have to play around with it and see if I can figure it out.

    My suggestion would be to drop yourself an hmg and a gl and see if either of those hurt it.

    edit: I'll go check, but i think that drawdamage is on if you start the game in dev mode.
    edit2: nope, it's sv_cheats 1 that does it and mp_drawdamage has to be 1 as well
