Necro reply on telefragging:
The long range teleporter won’t kill you if you warp into solid normally unwalkable tiles.
If you happen to teleport over a foe or NPC with it, the monster will not be killed and will be harmlessly teleported out of the way.
It will no longer remove monsters on the teleported to area
Short range teleporter however works exactly like the teleporter item, including telefrags, telesickness and dying if you teleport into solid walls.
Buy only if the goof who added a new C4 forgot to add them to the no trading list (AKA as a bug).
You can sell active explosives to NPCs, however the timers are not processed while inside the NPCs inventory and thus they will never blow up (you can buy them back and they will still explode normally however)[/quote]
Will an NPC pick up an active explosive? If so, is should be possible to turn NPCs into suicide bombers by getting them to pick up an active explosive and leading them into a large group of enemies. When they die, the explosive will drop and continue its countdown, then explode, killing whatever killed them.[/quote]
No need to have them pick it, selling an active explosive achieves this, it will blow up and behave normally once it leaves the Npc inventory either by the npc dying or trade. You can also wait until the last turn before selling the device as the trade is instantaneous.
