id may have left it in so they wouldn't have to deal with the resulting problem ... now there's a monster on your head. What happens? :) 

good point :)

Although looking at the code, it does a check to make the monster jump again if it detects it's landed on problematic ground (loosely speaking) - I would have expected id to have made it also jump off if it lands on another monster/player - but the function seems to exit in that case in a way that makes me think they didn't really account for it. 

Not just an .exe file? I downloaded it yesterday because I was a friends and mentioned czg and Scampie's new maps, thought I'd show him the Quake Injector.

Basically I spend half an hour dicking around and couldn't get it working at all.

Does it support Windows? 

It supports Windows. You have to have Java runtime installed though.

I also wish it was an EXE ... and that it would remember the sort order I set. I can't believe it doesn't do that. :) 

Add self.attack_finished = time + 0.5; and then return if time < self.attack_finished.
That way it wouldn't be insta-death because you touch every frame, but it would still hurt more than usual?

Maybe that would make it even worse, if it makes the fiend hang around in the air for longer.

How about doing some maths to see if it's the bottom of the fiend that's touching, and then do something based on that? Maybe pushing the player away could be interesting... 

too dumb to read the readme file or the website? :)


willem: .exe would be great, we could not find anything good to do this though. 

It works a charm on my computer, actually, just tested it. My friend said he had Java, but he was obviously mistaken. 

the first thing is a cool suggestion czg but as you say the fiend would still hang around on the player head in the same jump pose. I reckon i'll just extend the "jump again if on broken ground" check to also make it jump again if it lands on other characters.

As for pushing the player away - if it pushes the player off a ledge... might be just as annoying, but that would probably be a rare case. 

As if they were Winrar files on his computer. Which was weird, because when you open a jar file with winrar, you can see all of the source files of the project. And access them. 

just realised that if I make the fiend bounce off other characters as described above, then they would be Mario-style fiends.

It is decided then. 

 

Do they have a moustache?? I say NO! 

Remove it, Fiends already do enough damage. Instant death is annoying particularly when it's completely out of the blue and not automatically suggested (ie a huge crusher or a bottomless pit)

I am so retarded, I took Willem's post seriously.

Strangely, it misses out the adverts in the video. 

is it a good idea to make a multi-page website with a single php page that generates all of the pages from posts or gets?

i've seen conflicting viewpoints on this... 

you get ugly urls and google may or may not index it as well... but those can be fixed by using mod_rewrite to map "nice" urls onto your single php page, for example:

/website/news/ -> website.php?page=news
/website/links/ -> website.php?page=links
/website/articles/ -> website.php?page=articles
