[Effect] Suppression effect tweaks [WIP]

Currently working on tweaking the suppression effect so,


1. Only happens with 5.56 and higher calibre weapons

So you can all stop bitching about pistols/smg's giving off the effect ;)

Confirmed for 0.8

2. Only "activates" after the round has travelled 10-20m

Confirmed for 0.8

So you can all stop bitching about CQB being a little bit frustrating ;)

3. Is triggered when bullets go overhead

Only one I'm not too sure about. With a bit of luck perhaps :)

WIP

I like the actual it works, but with these planed tweaks, sounds good !

Sounding awesome. You guys keep figuring out how do stuff that I thought would be impossible.

Sounds great. Hopefully you can tweak into a good thing, because it is helpful.

Make sure that:

4. Suppression effect works when bullets hit penetrable metal feces too.

Although #3 might expell the need.?.

What's weird is, currently, I'm not getting the black suppression effect at times. :/

Still, great ideas! Had a few guys uninstall PR (a sin, I know :p ) because of the new effect.

great tweaks! :)

don't see why you shouldn't be able to suppress with a pistol though.

Nice :)
Any idea on when we would see these changes implamented?

I think he wanted to know how it would be implemented to the mod. New patch ? 0.8 ?

Is there any deviation added when you are suppressed? I mean, it seems a bit silly that people facing each other, shooting at each other, and "suppressing" each other can still shoot exactly where their gun is pointed, hoping to get that lucky shot.

I was playing today and was in a squad where a guy said he turned off the effect. I don't know how or anything like that, but apparently there is a way. I don't know if you can get punkbuster or whatever to prevent this.
