    Please describe your suggestion or bug report
    good evening

    i have a suggestion to make concerning the Resize tool for donators

    While i understand the reason for self damaging imo you should be able not to take damage as well because most of the time when this tool is beeing used (myself included) people can kill you without the user beeing able to do something.

    my suggestion:

    Make it so while the perk is in use giving you immunity to damage but keeping the self damage activated for obvious reasons allowing to stay outside of spawn without beeing imideatly shot at and having to resize all over again.

    also on a side not Why is spy still banned from resizing? since the damage reflect should prevent a spy from killing someone while small right? or am i mixing something up here?


    cheers

    Thanks for your suggestion, but we aren't going to implement this.

    There was also a similar thread regarding resize damage taking/giving: https://forum.harpoongaming.com/threads/suggestion-donator-resize-and-damage.38072/ , but to sum it up, resize hasn't seen much use lately (especially when it comes to going out of spawn), as well as the sourcemod plugin we have for resizing doesn't have the capabilities to prevent damage from other players, just prevent players who were resized from damaging others.

    As for why spy can't be resized: There have been numerous issued regarding the spy class in general (weapons, abilities) that conflicted with resize plugin.
