What has science done?!

Did this while testing Lua in 2.26:

 

OMG u'r generating a new black hole.

 

So you won at solitaire?

 

its a shit load of turrets.

 

is that the thing from contact?

 

merging emp and portal?

 

Imagine the defensive potential.
Until they blew each other up from gunfire... If they couldn't actually shoot each other, IMAGINE THE DEFENSIVE POTENTIAL.

 

I wonder what the FPS would be.

 

0.00001 .

 

The FPS would be broken. It would become infinite.

 

I am scared to know what would happen if someone were to stand in the circle in the middle of those turrets.

 

nothing. Even if turned on, well except the frame drop OR unless your the enemy, 1ms death?

Here is a thought... how much of a strain on the server would that place to have to calculate that many turrets targeting, aiming, shooting, and dmg calculations?

 

The server would probably have a meltdown, and possibly explode at 10x the power of the Hiroshima bomb.

Or crash whatever comes first.

 

I don't think it would cause a crash.
I've made a gun in gmod that shoots 10000 bullets per frame and it just lags a fuckton.

 

ok but it just shoots alot of bullets which are hitscan and mostly client side, unless you were shooting at a target that could take dmg. We are talking about at least a thousand turrets that individually need to run target code, aim code, shoot code,and damage calculation code. Its not a trivial matter for the server cpu to do.

 

Aiming and turning is pretty simplistic, the attacks don't even need to be hitscan since it never misses, migh tas well skip that whole hitscan and just go for autodamage and an effect.

 

I think I had something like 15 FPS looking at those turrets.

 

You can easily make gmod explode making just 99999999999999999999999flammable barrels explode
