Darker Medusa Head

[VernJensen]

Okay, so someone earlier brought up the question of why the darker medusa heads re-appear if you kill them with a shield, then come back into the room. This seemed like a bug to me (it seems that they should re-appear if killed with a flame, but should be permanently killed if you used a shield), but when I look at the source code, it turns out I *specifically* programmed it the way it is... that is, when making the game, I intentionally wanted them to re-appear, even if you used a shield to kill them. (Only if you die on the head, will it stay gone permanently.) This logic seems backwards to me now.

But... that's the way the game is. And I have a feeling that changing it now would cause quite a bit of controversy. But I'm not sure. What do people think? Should the dark-green heads stay dead if you use a shield on them? I'd be in favor of such a change, but I don't know if it'd mess up certain mansions people have done.

It's a very easy change to make, but just one I want feedback on first.

You're the programmer but I kind of like the idea of them reappearing and use it quite a bit in Dominator although as black probe droids. The light green are colored probe droids. But it's up to you, just wanted to get my vote in. I say leave it.

It's a part of the game one has to consider while playing! Don't change it, I am to old to relearn!

I agree with rose. Two reasons:
1. It make it easier.
2. In help in MM it says, ...

when you think she's gone, she'll be back

[Semi-Native]

I agree. Leave it like it is.
:o

[Freddy]

Yes. Please leave it.

Looks like this

says most people want it to stay! Who said it shouldn't in the old forums?

I think it was me :-[

Well, the vote is in, and it's stayin as-is!
