Actually in our server he can. With correct timing he can escape with rage.

and how small is the window of opportunity for hale to escape? usually this happens if Hale doesn't have enuf room to move.

Not sure about in VSH, but in FF2, the boss can Rage while stunned.

same in VSH, but for some reason, when u try to punch the sniper while in first person, the fist hits him but for some strange reason, the hit doesn't register, and when i spam M1, the fist just moves rapidly in the same few positions.
if requested, i can record demo of it.

Even if you're in first-person, you're still stunned and can't attack. But seriously, I've gotten complaints from somebody who said I 'fixed the huntsman taunt' even though I didn't change anything, so apparently you are able to escape. If you get caught in it you deserve the humiliating death.

It depends on the type of teleport ability (activated or not).

VSH wasn't really designed for new bosses to be added to it.

I never said it was impossible, just not designed for it.

That's the major reason to use Freak Fortress 2 instead of Vs. Saxton Hale: FF2 is designed to to be able to add new bosses and has an entire infrastructure for it.

The downside is that FF2 and VSH are currently out of sync; FF2 is missing the VSH changes made since 1.38 (other than those ported from FF2 to VSH). I'm working on this, but large sections of the code were changed.

FF2 also has a boss jump mechanic that works a bit differently, although I've created a version of FF2's "default_abilities" subplugin that adds a ff2_oldjump cvar; this cvar will be present in FF2 1.07 and newer.

FF2 also uses a terrible system to load/unload bosses (last I checked). It should be using native calls and forwards instead of loading/unloading boss plugins (renaming .smx to .ff2? Seriously?).

If you want help with converting those over to properly use natives/forwards, Powerlord, that's something I'd be willing to do.

I was considering just building it into VSH.
