you just have to be near the gates where the wheel is

pegperegogaucho

Where are you getting this info from, Rubin?

pegperegogaucho

Because that sounds like XXL2, like Adrien said :Obelul:

mr.rubinshtein

i mean wouldnt it make sense?

mr.rubinshtein

or at least defeat the rocket roman near the wheel so he flies away to the wheel

mr.rubinshtein

i was more wondering if its possible or not to do :Obelul:

pegperegogaucho

The way he works is that he starts flying if you approach him with an ignited torch

pegperegogaucho

So we would have to change the guy completely for that, and it might not even be possible...

pegperegogaucho

I know it's awkward how he will kill anything in sight, but I guess it is what it is :Obelul:

pegperegogaucho

They're actually really fun and can cause massive damage to the enemy groups, it's absolute mayhem. They even go through walls!

mr.rubinshtein

ah i see it now :Obelul:

mr.rubinshtein

no worries

mr.rubinshtein

was just wondering in general

mr.rubinshtein

it does look fun for sure

mr.rubinshtein

so i suppose once you are close to the rocket roman with torch he gets into his state right away

mr.rubinshtein

without even hitting him

It's kind of interesting how the Rocket Roman and the Roman throwing mechanic from XXL2 look kind of similar: in XXL2 when you throw a Roman they also aim to nearby Romans, and you can lock them to any object like a target. So this mechanic may have gotten some inspirations from the Rocket Romans.

pegperegogaucho

Sure, maybe they were developing the Rocket Roman and couldn't or didn't have the time to make him not go through walls, so they adjusted the mechanic so that you aim him instead

pegperegogaucho

And I believe in XXL2 the enemy, when thrown, will also hit an enemy, then go to the next one etc.

Where does this come from? Is it an enemy which still had a model, animations and ai hidden in the files?
