I've never had this happen myself when I used lightning ball... What spell did you use? |
|
|
as noted above, Splash Back. It seems to be the only spell with sufficiently high knockback to effect them. |
|
|
Yet another potential feature! :) |
|
|
Definitely unintended, but what do we think? Does this seem broken, or does it break the puzzles? I agree with Penumbra that, despite the fact that this is unintended, this could be really cool assuming that it's not broken-seeming. |
|
|
Well, it would depend on where they can end up. I was more thinking there could be a sorting type puzzle, where the player has to bounce the different orbs into containers. I haven't played with Splash Back in a mystery room to comment on any unintended situations. Only having one spell affect them with knockback might seem a little strange, since otherwise they are immobile. |
|
|
As it stands it is far too broken to be of use, about 30% of the time the Orbs won't rescale properly and then they start overlapping each other and you end up with tiny orbs hidden behind full size ones. not fun. |
|
|
Okay, I'll fix it so that they are immune to even high levels of knockback, then. Note that knockback isn't a fixed thing, Penumbra -- different spells do different amounts of it, and splashback as well as summoned tornados are able to knock back many objects that can't be knocked back by other means. |
|
|
Is it a "knockback strength" vs "weight" mechanic? |
|
|
Yep! |
|
|
* The puzzle pieces from mystery rooms are now properly immune to even heavy knockback. |
