Post Ship Thrusters No Longer Do Damage?
I can understand the change to make teammates not shoot each other. The AI was horrendously stupid and it's a 2D game, so it's believable that they're aiming around their comrades.

I am disappointed, however, that it seem the thrust from my drop-ships/rockets ALSO no longer can damage my own team. It can't even force them to the ground when they're DIRECTLY under the nozzle.

I dislike this change. That is all. :x

He means that the exhausts from the thrusters don't hit your own team's actors.

It's pretty easy to mod it in though, but don't forget to make back ups when messing with Base.rte.

Open up Base.rte/Actors/Dropships/Dropships.ini and add this to the top (don't forget to change the spaces to tabs!):

Code:
AddEffect = MOPixel
   CopyOf = Jet Air Blast
   PresetName = Dropship Air Blast
   ScriptPath = Base.rte/Edits/HitEveryTeam.lua


Then do a search for these lines:

Code:
   AddEmission = Emission
      EmittedParticle = MOPixel
         CopyOf = Jet Air Blast


and change the last to read "CopyOf = Dropship Air Blast".

For the lua all you need is a lua file with this code:

Code:
function Create(self)
   self.Team = -1
end

The reason for this change was because of all of the problems that it gave a majority of the players... involving the unwholesome spree-slaughtering of allied actors, wasting a lot of money, time, and effort.

Uh, well, it is 2D game, yes. I like it how there is no "Friendly-fire" because my random shooting would kill all of my clones. Also, i don't really use thrusters to kill enemies because when i lose one of my thrusters (Talking about the dropship) It will start doing barrel roll and crash onto my troops...
