Being able to send enemies flying without even being in the same room as them seems overpowered. What about something like doing a slight jump forward and ramming an enemy?

However, I do see your point and I do kind of agree now that I think about it. It's actually a bit overpowered even as an attack as well since you could just push them against a wall constantly until they die. I will change the attack to something else on the next update. The ramming into enemies is a pretty good idea and I might do that instead.

The damage from the ramming is very small so it's not that useful as far as an attack. However, it does still push enemies quite far, giving enough room to do so, but the range of effectiveness is very small so the player will need to get up close. This should make it a bit more balanced.

Edit: Lowered the radius and strength of both the sheep's and morphed player's baa. I felt it was a bit too strong previously. Last edit: 5 years 10 months ago by doomedarchviledemon.

The sheep-player actor's radius is bigger than the player's, and GZDoom doesn't check for room when attempting a morph. Unless someone has a solution, the way I see it is to request a change to GZDoom.
