View Full Version : Worms health reduced when hit

Hi all,

I am relatively new to WORMS and have downloaded WORMS: Reloaded via steam. I have been happily playing this for a month or so now and each time the worms are hit with a weapon, their health is reduced extensively... up to approx 50 points (i.e. a shotgun hit would be 25 per hit).
However, when I played the game yesterday, the worms health is only being reduced by 1 or 2 points at a time... meaning the only way to effectively kill a worm is to drown them.
This prolongs the game and also means that the weapons are next to worthless and I have looked everywhere I can to change this setting - even to the extent of creating a new gameplay profile with the worms starting at health 50 (but this is still too long).
Please can someone advise how I can change the settings back to how they were?

Many thanks

Dave

Verify game cache to fix your installation.

Yeah, the reduced damage is a kind of anti-cheating measure. Keeps most people from meddling with the game's files, but can also trigger by accident sometimes.

Anyhow, glad it works now.
