plenty of quality in the game, yes (graphics, gameplay, anything from the user point of view)
plenty of quality in the game code (=luas), no.

2 deaths/bayonet...You know what god mod is? (console->nvngod)

Yes, it's a 15s job. Just wondering: can you fit a rifle round (78mm for the smle, 57mm for the gew98 ) in a gun handle? 'Coz colts are quite rare in the game, so we could somehow say they are custom made/modded pistols...

You mean it's really the case in the retail game? Damn I never noticed.

Instead of tampering with gun damage you could bring more baddies (someting like "artefacts increase max fury but also attracts zombies").
Dunno if 135% is better, actually what worried me is that in my mod I dual wield every weapon in the game (=200%dmg) so add the 240% factor->480%
Personally I'm a firm adept of the "one bullet is one bullet" policy, so damage shouldn't vary unless you tamper somehow with the bullet propulsion, shape, or mass...Then again you do what you want in your mod.

That? Things you could never code? Aww c'mon (says the half wit who's attempting to rewrite the luas, little bit by little bit)

Arr...That should be because of their "Gunpass" hack. I'll give you some clues:
-Did you notice guns never go through walls/ennemies?
-Take the flamer, there is a little ignition spark at the end of the barrel. Approach a wall. Where is the spark? Then slowly turn...
I have removed this hack in the MadMan's Mess mod - I broke other things in the process and fixed some of those in v0.3 (release scheldued this weekend, if I don't get a General Lazyness Fault).

I didn't look at the AI code but I suspect it's something like "advance following vector player_position-my_position"
