I can't reproduce this. Here is what did: Using the provided demo file, I gave the plasma ball a damage type of fire which the thing is immune to. Fired at it with the plasma rifle and it took no damage from the event (expected behavior). Then I tried the rocket launcher, whose projectile doesn't have a specific damage type. The result was that the thing got damaged normally (expected behavior, as well). This was tested with 2.4.0 and development build 3.0pre-15-g11e6cfc. Both produce the same results. |

Hmm I reproduced your steps and the issue didn't happen for me either. I even gave the Plasma Ball the SHOOTABLE flag and it still didn't happen. If I remove the SHOOTABLE flag from one of the actors in my example then the factors work as they should so I suspect there is another property/flag that is interfering with them and causing them not to work. |

I found the culprit: it appears that A_Die clears the Damage Factors and/or Damage Types from the actor that it's called for some reason. |

Ok, in that case I'll close the report. A_Die does indeed change the damage factor of the affected actor, because it is set to the killer's damage - but A_Die lets the world kill the projectile. |
