In the vulc mod (and some other servers)... the red stance can damage/kill without it ever even touching you. Very annoying in duels...you die without ever actually being hit by the saber model itself. The damage model is about a foot AROUND the saber model.


Anyone know how a vulc patch to fix this?

It's not just a problem with the vulc mod, it's a problem with the general saber system in addition to a possible screw up on the vulc coder team.

The vulc people probably removed the ghoul2 collision code for the saber attack trace for some weird reason. :P That'll make the sabers collide on the player's bounding box instead of the player model like it does normally.

No true way to fix it without a change in the code, but you could help the symptoms by reducing the Saber Attack Trace Box with g_saberBoxTraceSize. This is only a partial fix so harass the mod maker early and often for a true fix. :)
