wheelchair self hit

I mean, beyond the sane option of not making chocolate bars deal 80 brute to some random because it was near an IED, just make the wheelchair not do this thanks for coming to my TedX talk.

when lieutenant shrapnel first developed his artillery weapon do you think he ever thought of using chocolate bars and wheelchairs as the bullets

Same happens with office chairs.

This is just a function of shrapnel, it's a feature No reason your wheelchair wouldn't kill you if you can get killed by a desk lamp

When will we just admit that shrapnel is overtuned?

Well, the difference is that you're not sitting on the desk lamp, but you ARE sitting on the chair.

Is there even any disagreement about this? It's been completely insane since it was added

I mean yeah that is a difference but I don't see why it would change anything If it can kill you when you're not sitting on it, why not when you are?

If it can kill you when you're not sitting on it, why not when you are?

If you push a chair towards someone, the movement of the chair is independent to the movement of that someone. If you push a chair with someone on top, you're moving both the chair and the person simultaneously. Keep the shrapnel memes, just jury rig it so the chair moves first, then the mob (if pushed by an explosion).

This is something newish, you get hit by the thrown chair you're sitting in with TK even, which didnt use to be the case about a year ago i'd guess.

The chair always moves first. That's not why it happens. It's thrown item code. It doesn't care which order things move in.
