| − | == Permitted weapons section ==
| |
| − | I added a table with the permitted combinations. Right now this is based on guesswork and common sense, so it needs to be verified and updated.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some things I'm not sure about:
| |
| − | * Can the `Buildings destroyed' be added to an Electro Sapper (since this already counts destroyed buildings)?
| |
| − | * Can a Wrench have a Gibs counter (a level three Sentry can Gib, but a wrench by itself can't)? Same for the other wrenches, obviously. On the whole, the Gib counter is the one that needs the most testing, I think. For instance: Any Eyelander kill is a gib kill, so the gib counter would simply match the `normal' counter. Right now, I've just taken the list from the [[Gibs]] page. (For the gibbing taunt kills, I've added the required weapons, such as the equalizer and gunslinger)
| |
| − | * I added the flamethrowers to the Headshot posibilities, as you can headshot with reflected huntsman arrows. These combos need to be verified though.
| |
| − | * Do the Mantreads cause damage to buildings the player lands on? Can't find this on the wiki. For now I've assumed they don't. (and thus can't have a buildings destroyed counter)
| |
| − | * I've assumed that the medigun assist counters are not applicable to these counters.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also, right now, this is a long table, It might be an idea to change it to a matrix, with the Strange Parts on top and the complete list of strange weapons on the left, and checkmarks indicating the possible combinations. However, if Valve adds more parts, this may become unwieldy (I expect at least 8 more, personally) Any thoughts on this?

| − | :Extracted the data from the schema? There's some oddities with what counter can be used with what, as expected. And as some tables on the wiki are much wider, perhaps make there be 2 columns of attributes. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 04:00, 23 March 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | :: No, I didn't extract the data (no idea how I'd do that, frankly, feel free to enlighten me!). This is just common sense (headshot counter only on weapons that can headshot, kill counters only on weapons that can kill, etc). Just thought that this was the kind of info I'd look for in the wiki, so thought I'd give is a start. --[[User:Itsacon|Itsacon]] 04:06, 23 March 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | : Is this table really needed? The combinations that are obvious (e.g., Headshots + Sapper) are... just obvious. The combinations that are not, should be checked first, or at least somehow marked in the table. And btw, I also suggest to make this table a multilanguage template, as it should be up to date in all language pages. — [[File:Login_Soldier.png|link=User:Stormbird]][[User:Stormbird|<span style="color:#5B885B;font-size:13px;font-family:'Arial';font-weight: bold;">Stormbird</span>]] <span style="font-size:10px"><sup>[[User talk:Stormbird|<span style="color:white; background:#5B885B;padding:0 2px;">talk</span>]]</sup></span> 04:09, 23 March 2012 (PDT)

| − | :: It might be common sense, but as far as I understood it, some weapons were oddly tagged/untagged with certain counters that didn't make sense. Also there are a lot of common sense tidbits of info already present on the wiki, still getting people asking what can be used with what. Also [http://git.optf2.com/schema-tracking/commit/?h=teamfortress2] you'd be looking at "tags" for each weapon in the early sections of that page. As far as I understand it the tags are above the weapon. There are a few blanket tages, like I assume can deal damage allows airborne, heavies and buildings. Not all the headshotting sniper rifles have the headshot tag yet. But haven't trawled through it all to 100% make sure yet. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]]
| |
| − | ::: Ok thanks, I went through the schemas a bit, and it's much clearer now. Looks like four attributes were added: `can_deal_damage', `can_headshot', `can_reflect_projectiles' and `can_deal_gib_damage'. The Strange Parts check on one of those. However, it looks like some things are not set, and some `impossible' combinations are possible. Examples:
| |
| − | :::* Not every sniper rifle is set yet for headshots (Currently only the Huntsman, Ambassador and Machina)
| |
| − | ::::* So headshots with reflections can't be counted.
| |
| − | :::* Heavy, building and airborne kills all use `can_deal_damage', so to answer my own questions:
| |
| − | ::::* The Mantreads `can_deal_damage', so can count airborne kills, even though I doubt this is technically possible in the game.
| |
| − | ::::* The Sapper can't, so can't count destroyed buildings twice.
| |
| − | :::* None of the festive weapons currently have the flags, so none of the Parts can be used on them
| |
| − | :::Also interesting: the only weapons currently able to gib are the rocket, grenade and sticky launchers, the Ullapool Caber and the Apoco-Fists (even though the latter is not yet available as strange)
| |
| − | :::I've updated the list with these changes. --[[User:Itsacon|Itsacon]] 05:06, 23 March 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | ::::Just one more note, festive stranges take the attributes from the base items, because I can apply my airborne kills part to all my festive stranges except the medigun, as you would expect. Don't think they have specific entires for the festives. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 06:06, 23 March 2012 (PDT)

| − | Added a table like paint cans for these because I feel like a lot more will be on the way soon, just wondering if the part table should be made shorter and/or combinted with the usage restrictions table. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 07:01, 23 March 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | : I think combining the two tables into something like the tables on the [[Tools]] page would be best. Icon + name first, usage permissions/restrictions second and then availability. --[[User:Itsacon|Itsacon]] 07:36, 23 March 2012 (PDT)

| − | The Sandman hasn't been added to the 'Can Reflect Projectiles' and the' Can Deal Posthumous Damage' sections. I'm not sure about the first, since iirc the Sandman can only reflect balls, but the Wrap Assassin (and other projectile weapons) are in the second section while the Sandman isn't.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also, should the Manmelter be added to the 'Can Extinguish' section? I know there is no strange for it yet, but still..

| − | | |
| − | [[User:YPchicken|YPchicken]] 04:20, 29 April 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :Weapons should not be added to the table as everything there has been taken directly from the item schema. The item schema determines which parts can be used with what, not the item's actual technical abilities. So the Sandman cannot use reflects and Mannmelter cannot be used with the extingish part even if there was a strange right now. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 04:47, 29 April 2012 (PDT)

If it was, you would also be able to put on the Heavies Killed part as well as the other two generic kill-related ones as it stands now.

Also should templates be made for weapon lists into a "cannot deal damage", "can headshot", "can gib" and "can headshot" to make the table much easier to add to in future? Because I can defintely see the can deal damage attribute being used again for a lot more new potential future parts. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 03:57, 27 March 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | :It would probably be better to list them into the associated labels, then list the parts that apply to the labels.

| − | | |
| − | I think that the Allies extinguished part should be able to add to a strange medigun/kritz/quick fix. Am I wrong, or does healing someone extinguish them faster than waiting for it to stop? [[User:Yuurg|Yuurg]] 13:57, 9 May 2012 (PDT)

| − | Can someone test if the Sandman does Posthumous damage? I would assume it does (The Ball) but I would feel better if someone could double-check.

| − | : It does not. [[User:Balladofwindfishes|Balladofwindfishes]] 18:52, 20 May 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | : The tags list is there for a reason. But no, the posthumous part cannot be used with the Sandman at all, despite it technically being able to kill after death. - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 08:43, 21 May 2012 (PDT)

| − | I was wondering, since the main counter of any wrench (except for the Southern Hospitality) counts the Sentry Gun kills, if Demomen and Heavies kills are counted with Sentry kills, melee kills or both, and same for the domination/revenge kills. --{{tf2b|P|size=1.4em|color=blue}}{{tf2b|eppo o'|size=1.2em|color=blue}}{{tf2b|P|size=1.4em|color=blue}}{{tf2b|accio|size=1.2em|color=blue}} [[File:Killicon backstab.png|28px|User Page|link=User:Peppo_o'Paccio]] ([[File:Speech_voice.png|19px|Talk|link=User_talk:Peppo_o'Paccio]] / [[File:Tf2wiki_edit_icon.png|19px|Contributions|link=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Peppo_o%27Paccio|Contributions]]) 03:58, 21 May 2012 (PDT)

| − | | |
| − | While Demo and Soldier are the most common forms of explosive jumping, some other classes can do that too. Engineer with wrangled level 3 sentry, Pyro with detonator or a skilled rocket airblast, any class with a pumpkin bomb, also any class that has been knocked into the air by an enemy explosive. [[User:Yuurg|Yuurg]] 06:58, 1 June 2012 (PDT)

| − | :Well, the "Kills while Explosive Jumping" Strange part can only be attached to Soldier and Demo weapons.

| − | == Removing Parts ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The page mentions that you can remove parts using Restore, but can you pick which ones to remove. Like, say my Rocket Launcher has 3 strange parts on it already, but I want to take off Heavies Killed and add Critical Kills instead. When you restore can you choose what to take off or does it just remove all of them? [[User:Redjarman|Redjarman]] 18:56, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

| − | :Just click restore, then click no until it asks you to remove that specific strange part. [[User:Yuurg|Yuurg]] 05:13, 3 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | == REMOVE BUGS ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Active "bug": The "Allies Extinguished" Strange part cannot be applied to any of Medic's Medi Guns, despite the fact they can be used to extinguish burning allies. ; As an example. This is not a bug. It can't be applied because valve doesnt update the mediguns to allow that attribute. It's like paints and other tools. So if the option wasn't enabled by valve you can't apply any strange part to a weapon. So this specific bugs should be removed. Open for 1week, if no opposite reasons are posted i will just remove the "bad bugs". Thank you [[User:TheDoctor|TheDoctor]] 19:52, 8 July 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Perhaps the fact that Valve hasn't added that attribute could be considered a bug itself? By your logic, the Strange Escape Plan not counting kills wasn't a bug, Valve just hadn't made it work yet. [[User:Redjarman|Redjarman]] 22:29, 11 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | :This weapon itself dropped only because of valve duplicating items without applying all attributes to the new cloned weapon. [[User:TheDoctor|TheDoctor]] 22:32, 11 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | ::This does not change the fact that it clearly wasn't working as intended, just like the "Allies Extinguished" part. [[User:Stocking|Stocking]] 18:27, 23 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | | |
| − | :::Not apply-able weapons makes it not a bug. Valve just didnt unlocked it to be useable on that or this weapon. Even in the 20 july patch notes they just said that they allowed a weapon to be useable with this strange part. It is unlocked by hand for each weapon. Pls join the irc chat and discuss with the moderators about it. My discuss is very old and no moderator objected in this >2weeks. [[User:TheDoctor|TheDoctor]] 18:46, 23 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | ::::Well apparently someone has decided that this constitutes 'trivia'. It is currently on the Medi Gun, Kritzkrieg, and Quick-Fix pages. I suggest that if such an issue is notable, it should be listed as trivia (or as a bug) on THIS page, and the list should be extensive.

| − | :::::::While we're on the subject, the [[Manmelter]] isn't on the list either, and extinguishing is a major part of its function. I assume it's for the same reason, I just wanted to point out that the bug isn't restricted to Mediguns.

| − | ::::::::Let's talk about facts....Many weapons can extinguish player, no one objects that. Also some items can't use this or that strange part even if they could this or that action. Now here is the tricky part look at the [[July_20,_2012_Patch|20. july patch]], open up the items_game.txt file and see this: "can_deal_posthumous_damage" "1" . This clearly tells you that strange parts are either a 0 or a 1, and if valve doesnt add that for a weapon it can't be used, but only valve makes the call for that. If it is not doable because of the code is a discussion which leads to nothing, like the moon is out of cheese... Hopefully this will end the additions for the medigun not allowed to take extinguish part... [[User:TheDoctor|TheDoctor]] 15:20, 25 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | == Critical Kills Part ==
| |
| − | Hello, guys, it appears I am stupid as monkey as I clearly can not understand what's the criteria for weapon for strange part Critical kills could be applied on it. If it should deal random crits? Pff, how about Huntsman,Persian Persuader, Eyelander that don't deal random crits, though part is appliable (. However Soda Popper and Caber can't deal crits either and the part is not appliable on them. Some kind of bug or what? Stats for prove

| − | http://stats.teamfortress.org/item/6021/Strange_Part%3A_Critical_Kills - 215 persuaders with part, 49 eyelanders, 46 huntsmans with critical kills applied. [[User:Sar-Shazarr|Sar-Shazarr]] 00:36, 5 August 2012 (PDT)

| − | Note: Weapons, that have special conditions to crit are not included (Market Gardener, Gunslinger - part is applied on them as usual.
