Plop War Rubber Version a.k.a. Rubber Plop War a.k.a. Plop Gum (PG) has Plop War's idea of a battle about drowning worms, but using RubberWorm features: sdet, rubber (58%), ldet, fdpt, crateshower, wdca, cratelimit (10), friction (1) on open island maps. Unlimited weapons usually do tinies craters and the others which do bigger damage are limited. The 2 Jet Packs of the scheme have a fuel value = 10. The limited suply of girders, the unlimited Longbows, blowtorches, unlimited parachutes, the rare teleports and unlimited (yes) moles are also very useful tools for locomotion. Animals help collecting crates.
Contents
Strategies
Going upwards
The glue is tricky and the locomotion tools are restricted in this scheme. In a game where the only way to kill a worm is by sinking it, it is important to stay in higher spots. The following list is about the tools to climb the terrain:
- Girders
- Longbow - bridge (see Tricks section)
- Bungee - launching the worm
- Parachute
- Blowtorch
- Jet Pack (fuel 10) [x2 ammo]
- Mole Bomb by digging or by Mole Jumps (see Tricks section)
- Teleport (very rare in crates)
Digging a hide
Sometimes even staying at the top of the map can be dangerous, so using blowtorch, pneumatic drill or the shotgun can be very useful to avoid an easy kill with the Baseball Bat. Remember to save sometime to do that, because this scheme has no automatic retreat time.
Wise use of the big crater weapons
Weapons like the Sheep Launcher, Homing Pigeon, Super Sheep and Homming Missile have big craters, something that is really strong in this scheme, comparing with the bazookas and the grenades that have power 11, with craters who looks like shotgun shots.
Tricks
Mole Jump
W:A replay: How to perform a Mole Jump | |
Download · Info |
A good way to move is doing Mole Jumps (a trick planned by the author of this scheme).
How to do a Mole Jump:
- Backspace twice with one hand
- Immediately, press madly fast the space bar many times with the other hand.
Is this it.
Bridge of arrows
With Longbow and multishot it is easy to create a bridge firing multiple arrows in the same angle spamming the space bar, then you can jump and walk to another island of the map.
Preventing self rubber bounciness
The rubber bounciness of the scheme is with this specific intensity to facilitate the hits in mid air (using minigun, longbow or dragon ball for example), this also affects the worm you are controlling every time it falls, costing some precious time. To avoid this, force the activation of Parachute in mid air.
History
The scheme was created by Fighter and released in this wiki on 8 April 2011 under the name of Plop War Rubber Version, because the author had stated by the time that the scheme should have this name.
TUS release: Plop Gum
The scheme was released on TUS on 04 May 2016 under the name of Plop Gum (PG) by the author using an alternative TUS account he used to use.
HostingBuddy's Rubber Plop War
Since 05 January 2021 Plop War Rubber Version is now supported by HostingBuddy under the name of "Rubber Plop War". The scheme was updated to the new v3.8 features (not by the author) with some significant detail changes to the original scheme (example: no more infinite bat, now obtained via crates). The idea and the core characteristics of the scheme remain the same.
