Topic: [IDEA] Use Hook as "Shield"

Well, I got this Idea: how about a Mod - yes, again a MOD - that could make the hook also into something like a shield.
that means, if someone shoots a grenade at you you can destroy it with the hook while targeting at the grenade. You won't lose any hearts because the grenade exploded far away from you. if it get closer you actually lose hearts, that's normal.

I hope you understand what I ment. maybe it's also a good idea for the next (big) update. smile

Erm, even if implemented, hook would not be accurate enough.

if($poster["intelligence"] == $intelligence["idiot"])

Roanoke: I think the opposite, if implemented rocket would be useless.

Basically it just involves doing a nice check around the rocket explosion code (509@gs_server.cpp) if there's a hook in a small radius around the projectile and then explode. I could do it, but I just can't see what would be funny with it.

well, it could be used as a very good aim-training I think.

Play classic teeworlds (NOT instagib) and try to hack&hammer another tee. Then you'll have the same aim-training (catching another tee with the hook is not easy!)

Nah ... imho instagib is the best opportunity to learn aiming

Not with the hook.
