shmutalov:

Will bomb explosion push neighbor bombs?

ozkriff:

yep, it's really strange that pushbacks don't interact with other bombs. Atm, they only push objects with agent component.

Though I don't want to push boulders around so easily, so I need to introduce something like weight component and only push "light" objects. I'll create another issue for that.

Weight table:

  1. normal objects (examples: normal agents, bombs)
  2. heavy objects (examples: heavy agents, boulders)
  3. totally immovable objects

Obviously, push effect should get similar "strength" parameter.

Thought: maybe just add a field to blocker component?

I might give this issue a try, in the meantime I'm writing here what I understand from the possible impacts, for future reference or if someone else wants to tackle that:

  • push effect from this issue description actually refers to "Knockback" effect in the code
  • Strength parameter would be implemented the same way as "Heal" ability
  • Weight component (or blocker property) would be/contains an enum to match the specified weigth table

I haven't fleshed the exact plan for this feature out yet, but this looks correct.

I might give this issue a try ...

Great! Feel free to DM me on Discord or gitter if you want to discuss any details!
