This could be as simple as adding 'noimpact' to the definition of caulk in tdm_internal_engine.mtr. All the sky textures are marked this way. A surface painted with a 'noimpact' texture will remove the projectile from the game. The question is, however, whether making caulk eat projectiles is going to adversely affect existing missions. |

Did this issue ever get resolved..? |
|
|
don't know |
|
|
Ok will test with the skyportal texture or other sky textures. This report is for arrows hitting caulk that's set up to be the sky and report back. |
|
|
This needs to be checked. |
 |
Do we actually have the caulk material ever used by map entities? |
|
|
Caulk can appear on brushes used in func_statics. They are typically on faces the player will never see. |
|
|
There is a suggestion above to add something to the caulk material but I'm confused if caulk ever reaches the TDM code or gets filtered out somewhere in DR/dmap |
 |
"The question is, however, whether making caulk eat projectiles is going to adversely affect existing missions." I can't imagine a scenario where it would be important to a mission that arrows impact on caulk surface. |
|
|
Just for the argument sake, which mission uses caulk for sky? |
|
|
Lots. Braeden Church is a recent mission that uses it. Just look up at the starting point. |
|
|
Looking at idProjectile::Collide noimpact should do the job? |
 |
@Duzenko, has this now been fixed? |
