Barnacle[edit]

The game crashes if a barnacle attempts to eat a rollermine. Maybe add this to the 'trivia' section? --Telis Ravenlight 06:19, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Sure. I believe it also crashes if a Barnacle tries to eat a Poison Zombie, but only in Half-Life 2, it's fixed in either Episode One or Episode Two. --MattyDienhoff 02:31, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello, I am Anonymous. I have confirmed that if a barnacle tries to eat Dog's ball it will crash the game in PC too. Thought I should add it because it says Xbox only confirmed.

Unnecesary picture?[edit]

The picture of a rollermine and a reprogrammed one zapping each other is cool, but unneeded. I think it should be removed. --FireMan 01:20, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

I think it looks suitable. It's a visual example of the statement about being reprogrammed. And it looks neat too. Plus, I think Klow put it there. --BlueFlamePRG 02:47, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
No, MattyDienhoff did. And it's completely relevant. Klow 02:59, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Ok, so it is relevant. but it is something that won't happen whithout cheats or a lot of back-tracking. --FireMan 03:11, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Well, it can happen without cheating, so that's enough... Klow 03:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Agreed. --FireMan 03:27, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Actually, it's not at all unusual for that (the rollermines attacking each other) to happen there if you're slow getting Alyx to reprogram the second one. What's unusual is to get such a good screenshot of it, my timing was lucky. :D --MattyDienhoff «talk» 03:54, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Indeed, taking good screenshots is an art. ;-) Klow 05:29, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Of course it's necessary! Why? Frikkin' laser beams!! Ninenineninefour 04:18, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Cleanup[edit]

Somebody really needs to clean up this article. I don't think there should be so many entries that basically say the same thing about dogs ball. — Unsigned comment by 68.6.187.210

I added a section for Dog's ball. We'll see how the admins like it. Smelltheashes 20:20, December 5, 2010 (UTC)
That's fine, it keeps the Trivia section organised. Bramblepath 21:54, December 5, 2010 (UTC)
What does N.L.O. mean? Ninenineninefour 04:18, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Leak Variants[edit]

In the leak code there are a small variety of rollers (rollerturret, rollerbuddy, rollerdozer, rollerbull & rollermines actually exploded like mines) which could use mentioning in this article.--72.89.154.199 04:43, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
