− | + | Note: the thunderbolt underwater discharge works like an ordinary explosion, calling [[T_RadiusDamage]] with 35 times the player's current [[cell]] ammo as a radius. Therefore, as it doesn't actually check to see if targets are also underwater, it will also affect targets out of the water as long as the [[traceline|line of sight]] to them is unobstructed. | |
