Heavy Weapon taken inside with DOleport

Post by NearNihil »

Steps to reproduce

1. Be IB with the ability to pick up heavy weapons, and do so
2. Get called into a location by your liege to an inside location and answer the call
3. Find yourself inside with said heavy weapon

Heavy weapons are explicitly forbidden from being taken inside, this just seems like an oversight. It'd be hilariously easy to get rid of fortifications otherwise.

- You attack the door with your Signal Tower. The door gives way and breaks off its hinges. (2022-09-26 21:09:58).

Done from inside the pirate boat while Heavy Lifting is not active. The signal tower is still in my inventory and I can probably step outside with it (presuming going indoors is the thing being prevented explicitly) but either way I was under the impression you needed Heavy Lifting active for you to be able to swing the superheavies.

Note to self: Code a repetitive function for dropping heavy items and do away with the current code duplication.

You can't DOleport inside enemy SH hence you can't use it to bash forts.

What Diss said. I thought this was a feature.

Maybe, but that was one example I could think of. Having a super heavy weapon in raid defence is another. Or vulturing a dead sh. You can't walk through the front door with them, which to me implies they shouldn't be able to be taken indoors.

After next patch, DOleport and homing beacon should leave behind superheavies and there will be a function that makes replicating this in the future easy.
