| 17:58:08 |  Diarandor | because i wrote it :p |
| 18:10:30 |  Maxatrillionator#7725 | Oh, creating the moving block as a stream isn't a bad idea, that'll push the hero when it bumps into her. The downside is you can walk right through it if you're going perpendicular to the stream's direction, but that's better than not being pushed. |
| 19:33:34 | Diarandor | i didnt use streams |
| 19:34:22 | Diarandor | actually, streams dont seem the best option if you want to customize angle, max distance, etc |
| 19:34:59 | Diarandor | but streams shorten the code, that is the advantage |
| 19:35:52 | Diarandor | Redacted or Malformed Event |
| 19:36:03 | Diarandor | is it doable with streams that only push the hero? otherwise it will move other entities, which i dont like |
| 19:54:24 | Maxatrillionator#7725 | I actually prefer it pushing other entities. In this case, it's a dungeon that is a robot factory, and you're battling as robot bodies are rolling along tracks on the cieling. I actually think the issue is that there aren't enough entities that can be pushed by streams, haha. |
| 19:54:47 | Maxatrillionator#7725 | It's weird to me that streams will push heroes but enemy can walk through them unhindered. |
| 20:54:08 | Diarandor | it is weird, there is entity:get_controlling_stream(). maybe it is planned more customization for streams in v1.7 |
| 20:54:38 | Diarandor | or maybe there is aomething missing in the Lua API |

| 07:59:42 |  CrookiNari | if you wanted your basic attack to be a projectile rather than a physical attack (i.e. not the sword), how would you go about it? |
| 08:43:58 |  Renkineko | Redacted or Malformed Event |
| 08:44:01 | Renkineko | custom entity damaging enemies when sprites of enemies and custom entities overlap |
| 08:44:38 | Renkineko | i think a bow & arrow using custom entity already exists, but i may be wrong |
| 08:44:50 | Renkineko | it's basically the same mechanic here 😃 |
| 09:01:49 | CrookiNari | cool. I guess there's somewhere in the basic script where you'd swap them out? Or something I dunno I'm pretty hopeless when it comes to programming |

| 16:31:50 |  wekhter (fontenddev) | the most recent join is a lovely little poem |
| 17:25:15 | Diarandor | yes, I think it was Chris who coded the custom arrows in some of his fangames |
| 17:37:26 | |  Archeia joined the room. |
| 17:59:58 | Maxatrillionator#7725 | Worth noting, the custom arrows in those games have a lot of features specific to that game. |
| 18:00:24 | Maxatrillionator#7725 | I might have something for you. I've been meaning to make a simpler arrow custom entity for a while anyway. |
| 18:01:17 | Maxatrillionator#7725 | But basically, you'd tie the "attack" command to that_item instad of attack with a command binding. |
