Grappling Hook Damage Creates Unkillable Enemies, Sometimes
Hey, all. Been dealing with a bit of a weird bug for a bit with the Grappling Hook mod.
I've got an autofire macro on my mouse, so I sometimes use it in conjunction with the Grappling Hook for its' (admittedly pitiful) damage, especially against Hatcher Crabs, given that it one-shots the little guys. When using it on other enemies, though, sometimes when it SHOULD kill them, having brought their health down to zero, it instead seems to make them invincible. No matter what I do - explosives, melee damage, rebar shots, or more grapplehits - they won't go down. I've seen this most often happen with Hogs, and the footage attached is of one such time.
Pinging @Asdolg (GrapplingHook), since it's his mod. Happy to experiment further if needed, this could easily be some kind of 'timing issue' with my macro and the game calculating however much damage the enemy should take.

Ignore the first second jumpcut, started the recording in OBS somewhere else and unpaused it once I arrived at the hog location to cut it together later, but it happened on the first attempt. So, there's that.
What the f-- lol
I knew I should have added 0.05s cooldown or something...
Ok I'll try to look into this when I have time, thanks for report!
yeah that will teach em!
What approach are you using to apply damage? I don't see how that would be possible haha
Grapple is an actual projectile, so this

hmm, I would expect that would be fine, yeah. shot in the dark, try an integer for damage amount? even though that definitely shouldn't matter
Yeah I'll try things like that, not sure how soon I'll get time for it though
