I would very much like to see the visualizers.

Golems needed quite a bit of rebalancing after all the new materials were added. I think they were made much more rare and their stats were changed a bit? Same for equipment - a lot of material probabilities were tweaked in the base game.
While I agree food golems are simply a comic relief, I really like some of the new quick golems (bamboo golem, some cloth golems), while liquid and gas golems are really "fun" (they spray their liquid/gas around on death, so killing a mustard gas golem is... interesting).
BTW, if you haven't seen the bamboo golem vault in UT, I think that one is really fun.

i also took item descriptions from the community fork, and draw them under the list. because why not?
That's awesome!

Holy Hand Grenade
in forum General IVAN Discussion
Unfortunately, the answer is actually no.
Backpacks, mines and grenades share an Explode() method, but it's not a generic method for the item entity. I even have it on my TODO list to make the Explode() method generic and let everything go boom. I sadly didn't have much time for development in... the last two years? Goddammit.
But right now, if you SOCM a big chest into gunpowder and zap it, it will only burn but not explode.
That's how I noticed that only certain items can explode, by trying to be clever and blow Petrus up with gunpowder chests.

Holy Hand Grenade
in forum General IVAN Discussion
Holy handgrenade has a fixed explosive power of 300, while a mine's total explosive power depends on the volume of its load and the load's explosive power:
A big mine has a load volume of 12500, and is normally filled with gunpowder with ExplosivePower = 15000. Therefore, a big mine has an explosive power of 188, or about 2/3 of a holy handgrenade.
Normal mine has a load volume of 5000, thus an explosive power of 75.
If a big mine was filled with neutronium, which has the highest explosive power in the game (ExplosivePower = 120000) but doesn't appear unless scripted in dungeon files, it would have an explosive power of 1500, or five times as powerful as a holy handgrenade.
Volume * MaterialExplosivePower / 1 000 000

off/on topic , is it possible to die of old age in IVAN like you can in other games? It would be cool if he zapped you and you became and old man or a child like the ones running around the cities.
Impossible right now, no entity has a tracked age, but that would be indeed cool.
