Weird but interesting mechanic.

So, what is interesting? Well while I was messing around I found out an way to make an auto attacking aura around the player. How? With the groundpounder component. Apparently the GroundPound scales to your weapon's damage and also it will automatically use the weapon you've in your hand at 5x the rate you could do normally if you groundpounded every 0.3 seconds. It also gets all the buffs/effects the weapon you holding has like electric damage, tail of 3 cats deaggro abblity and fx, and more. It also will attack all targets in the GroundPound range. If you wanna try then I'll put the GroundPound code.

Setup command 

c_select():AddComponent("groundpounder")   

c_select().components.groundpounder.numRings = 3

c_select().components.groundpounder.damageRings = 3 

c_select().components.groundpounder.destructionRings = 3

c_select().components.groundpounder.platformPushingRings = 3

c_select().components.combat:SetDefaultDamage(0)

c_select().components.combat:SetRange(30,35)

 c_select().components.groundpounder:GroundPound()

With your cursor on yourself.

GroundPound every 0.3 seconds command (use the setup one on yourself before you do it or you'll disconnect).

function groundpound(inst)

inst.components.groundpounder:GroundPound()

 end

ThePlayer:DoPeriodicTask(0.3, groundpound, 1)

Edit: sorry for my bad Grammer lol.

You mean in theory you could feed Bearger seasoned Volt Goat Chaud-Froid and have him duke it out with the Bee Queen?

I think it is the attack that bearger does when it smashes the ground.

ah, I see now, so this thread is how to mod in an groundpound aura

I thought OP found out a way to break the client in a way, so that you generate groundpounds somehow, but no you need to be server admin from what I see

I wasnt actually talking about modding it, it works with console commands too. I would be very cool if someone used this for an mod as it's the most simple way you could make an auto attack aura. (Probably)

Most likely if he eats it, I was mainly talking about if the player had the groundpounder component but it would prob also effect entities like bishops who has an invisible weapon so they can attack. 

 

Also I forgot to say, the entity you apply the groundpounder component too most likely need the combat component to GroundPound.

In theory you could create an entire mod via the console alone. You haven't really discovered much, the console works no different than a lua file.
