Pyro physics
Does the engine account for momentum in regards to the flame thrower. In other words, if two pyros are going at it, one running forward with flame on and the other running away with flame on, does the one running backwards have an increase in relative effective range.
Also, does the airblast:
-distort/redirect flame
-increase the burn on a target that is already on fire"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard." - H. L. Mencken

Re: Pyro physics
The airblast does neither of those, but I do know that the pyro running backwards will beat the pyro running forwards, and I believe it does have to do with the relative range, but I say for sure.

Re: Pyro physics
Bingo! Pyro running away wins every time. The flames don't inherit any momentum or anything from the pyro that fires them, they just travel a set distance in whatever direction. If you have a pyro running and a pyro chasing, the running pyro is already out of the way before the flames arrive, and the chasing pyro continually runs into the flames. DO NOT chase pyros.

Re: Pyro physics
Flares can be reflected as well.
