Re: Hurling Boulders

I am curious how a wheeled shooter would change if the skin of the boulder had a hole in it. From looking at ours yesterday, it seems that how quickly the boulders compress is limited by the small hole that vents air out of the side. If a hole was ripped into the skin during game play, it could cause the boulder to compress differently and therefore shoot differently.
