I often see people spamming about someone expoliting acid rockets. What they mean is that someone shooting acid rockets through the walls. To those of you who dont know, if you shoot acid rockets at wall, it hurts the marines other side. Specially in <!--emo&::siege::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/siege.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='siege.gif' /><!--endemo--> maps when marines are building sieges in the other side of your hive, if you shoot the wall, it hurts the marines. The acid rockets doesnt physically get there, but the effect does. So I was just wondering if this is a bug or is it suppose to be like that? I always thought that was the purpose of acid rockets. I alwys shoot acid rockets at walls when theres somone in the other side. *As a reslut, in pubs I alwyas get yelled at*

and what bob says is true
Nah, co_rebirth was in fact left out of b5 accidentally. Oops! If it was going to be removed, it wouldn't be removed for this reason, which can be fixed simply by making the floor a bit thicker in that area.
A little copy-paste will fix it, but it's still out of the map rotation on most servers because of it.
As well, if the model/hitbox is big enough it will also clip through extremely thin walls, allowing that player to get shot at and damaged.
Didn't Max actualy fix this a while ago? (like one of the first things he did). Mabey it was Flayra, but I though it was Max.
Thought they had fixed the HL bug where explosions basicaly ignored walls.....
ah well.

I remember Flayra saying "Oops! I've just been informed co_rebirth isn't in the release!" but he said that before the official release so I was wondering why they didn't already put it back :/
