Bullsquid Health?

Ronin4862 opened this issue · 3 comments

I noticed that the bullsquid became too easy to kill.
On Hard it should have a health of 120 but I can kill it with 5 Glock shots. They each do 8 points of damage which equals a total of 40 HP which is the Easy/Medium setting.
Also on easy I can kill it with 2 shots.
Am I missing something?

I did a clean reinstall of Half-Life and the problem went away.

P.S. It seems the bullsquid.mdl file itself was the cullprit; and I was somehow using the HL Unified version. Copying the original one solved the problem.
But it's just a MDL file, how can it affect a skill parameter such as health?

Models define the solid parts of itself using hitboxes. Hitboxes associate a hitgroup with it to allow game code to apply damage modifiers. Looks like the Bullsquid's model had its hitgroups changed in error.

The Bullsquid model hitgroup changes have been reverted. The next dev build will include the updated model.
