Where the article says "Upon a successful double headshot where the bullet has penetrated and killed multiple players, a sound will play throughout the server to signal the occurance." is this different to the fanfare which is played after a penetration kill? I think this needs to be made clearer -[[User:PlausibleSarge|PlausibleSarge]] 06:22, 19 August 2011 (PDT)

:There is a difference, upon a double penetration kill (no headshots or one headshot and a bodyshot) the fanfare will play, if its 2 headshots this sound will play that you can here at the end of this youtube vid over here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1XCz5v7J_A [[User:Dy1an|''dy1an'']] 10:59, 19 August 2011 (PDT)

:: If you get a kill by shooting through an enemy and killing someone behind them, the fanfare plays and everyone hears it (at least both teams do, unsure about people dead/spectating). Killing multiple players with one shot is NOT required. That's basically it.[[User:Wernstrum|Wernstrum]] 13:18, 19 August 2011 (PDT)
 
::I attempted to clarify the 'fanfare' thing, but I'm having trouble describing what it actually sounds like. I think the sound file is located at '/team fortress 2 content.gcf/tf/sound/misc/sniper_railgun_double_kill.wav' but I can't get GCFScape to extract it (dunno why); it might be a good idea to link the sound on the page so people can hear what it's like.

:::I can do it, I just need help finding the page that describes how sounds and such are to be handled -[[User:PlausibleSarge|PlausibleSarge]] 03:10, 20 August 2011 (PDT)
 
::::OK, I have uploaded the sound file. I don't know how to properly reference it within the article, so I have left it. Here is the link to the file [[File:Sniper_railgun_double_kill.wav]] -[[User:PlausibleSarge|PlausibleSarge]] 03:25, 20 August 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Damage ==
 
 
 
I added the damage chart to the page, but I have a few questions.
 
-I calculated the random distance modifier into the base damage to get the spread for the 100% charged bodyshot, should I be doing this or testing ingame?
 
-Since I did calculate it, what should I round the values to? [[User:Shawnachu|Shawnachu]] 10:54, 19 August 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Croc-O-Style Kit Bug? ==
 
 
 
From what I've heard, a head shot from the Machina will completely ignore the Croc-O-Style Kits' set bonus. Can someone test this? [[Image:Leaderboard class scout.png|link=User:Wallacethewalrus|20px|sub]] [[User:Wallacethewalrus|<span style="Color:orange;font-size:10px;font-family:

:A Croc-O-Style sniper can survive a basic headshot, though I've yet to test if they can survive a full charged Machina ignores their headshot resistance. [[User:Wernstrum|Wernstrum]] 14:03, 19 August 2011 (PDT)
 
::I'm not sure if it just has to be fully charged single headshot or a piercing one. Try testing both if possible.[[Image:Leaderboard class scout.png|link=User:Wallacethewalrus|20px|sub]] [[User:Wallacethewalrus|<span style="Color:orange;font-size:10px;font-family:

::I'm sure it still protects from headshots - I was on a server today with several snipers using the Machina and they always dropped my health to 1 after a headshot.

== Change the quote? ==
 
 
 
Maybe it's me, but the current one just bugs me since the Machina can't penetrate through buildings, which means the engie basically does have a gadget that stops his bullets? Seems a little contradictory. [[User:Wernstrum|Wernstrum]] 14:19, 19 August 2011 (PDT)
 
:Sorry about that; it wasn't an ideal quote in my opinion as well, but unless someone can propose a better option it shall stay.
