Frogs clip through the floor and into the endless void
Magnogen opened this issue · 6 comments
When placing a portal at the bottom of a world, a froggo can find itself in the endless void of eternal nothingness, acompanied only by pain, suffering and anguish - never to be seen or heard from again. The frog undergoes complete and utter inter-thermal damnation within the eternal void and its suffering will not be relieved even by means of a merciful death.
Save froggo from clipping into the barrier that seperates the comfortable life the froggo knows, loves and cherishes, from the everlasting void of nothingness and despair - for they are only to be greeted with eternal torment.
tl;dr blocks can touch the floor on the otherside of a portal, but a frog will keep going
Hi, yes I'm aware of this bug - it somehow slipped in during the final burst of coding hell when I was working on the video. It seems like some very specific things trigger it, because it works fine in other situations. Probably an annoying typo somewhere! One day I will rewrite TimePond, using what I learned from this first engine, and I'll be more careful, so frogs don't get lost in the aether!
Awesome! Also there are loooads of URL parameters that you can use to try the different experiments out. Such as https://www.timepond.cool/?experiment=gfling&menu=purple&portal=pastnow
can there be a list showing each type of experiment?
Sure, I could write up a list for this (maybe later today!)
Hey, I added some presets to the readme. Here are some you can try:
Simple | Right | Fling | Fall | Bump | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Teleport | Teleport + Simple | Teleport + Right | Teleport + Fling | Teleport + Fall | Teleport + Bump |
Future | Future + Simple | Future + Right | Future + Fling | Future + Fall | Future + Bump |
Past | Past + Simple | Past + Right | Past + Fling | Past + Fall | Past + Bump |
Rewrite | Rewrite + Simple | Rewrite + Right | Rewrite + Fling | Rewrite + Fall | Rewrite + Bump |
Branch | Branch + Simple | Branch + Right | Branch + Fling | Branch + Fall | Branch + Bump |
I left some of the other presets in a broken state, (eg: Nexus) so I'll fix those at some point and add them too!
