Summary

Bugfixes "Quadraphract can now destroy robots"

Purpose of change

The Yrax Quadraphact’s main cannon does heat damage, which robots are completely immune to. I think that we can all agree that it’s a bit silly when a hyper-advanced alien spider tank that deals arbitrarily high damage is incapable of destroying a reprogrammed skitterbot. Kinda dampens the intimidation factor.

Describe the solution

Change heat to bullet damage.

There's no way switching this to stab damage is the right answer.
More likely robots shouldn't be completely immune to heat.

Why not change it? It’s not a laser. It’s molten metal being accelerated extremely fast.

Most of the energy transfer would be from the impact. Not the heat.

I tried this and the Quadraphract died after shooting two of its own legs dead. Funny bug I didnt anticipate thanks to the heat damage lol.

Mind you it took a while of heavy combat for it to happen.

Oh boy. Well, it’s your call. Making it so that robots can die to heat damage will introduce this same problem down the line, but this monster is yours in every way that counts.
