Buzz Saws, Pressure Plates, Triangles and Clouds


Change Log:


[this GIF shows everything that was added]

  • I forgot to change the version number :)
  • Added Saw Trap
    • Right now only does 1 damage and has high knock back
    • Doesn't use power but will in the future. It will use a lot so you can't run it all the time.
    • Damages everything including tumbleweeds and the player.
  • Added Pressure Plate
    • Triggers a device attached to it when the player, an enemy, an animal, etc. steps on it.
    • NPCs don't trigger it.
  • Added Angled Blocks
    • Triangle wood blocks added
    • Press B to flip it
    • Hit boxes are a little off
  • Added Clouds (or cloud shadows)
    • First pass at adding clouds
    • Not really happy with the shapes, but the system is in and working
    • I had to hack together a shader to gets the clouds to mesh correctly

I'll keep trying to look around as I thought I saw something about it earlier

it's not working still. Do I have to re-install it?

The game that is.

Odd... maybe try a restart? Are you on windows 10?

another thing to try is update your graphics driver

If you were to add a feature where it would remove clouds, (or a different version without clouds(I know its easier said than done)) Would it stop the error, or is it something to not do with clouds, IDK.

It still didn't work? The problem is shaders which this game uses a few. That download didn't fix it for you? I has fixed it for everyone I know so far.

I have an idea, maybe biomes?

Yes. The area is mostly arid and dry but there will be different looking areas of arid-ness :)
