I use the term *flawless* loosely because every game's physics system has some kind of flaw somewhere...
...but today I made a breakthrough that gets rid of one of those flaws! In fact, it's actually quite the opposite of "breakthrough", as it is a flaw that keeps the main character from going through walls.
Sounds like a simple thing to fix, doesn't it? Fastloops is probably the first thing you're thinking. Well, I was using fastloops, and yet, for some reason, Jonny (the character) would go inside walls and sometimes glitch all the way through walls if he was moving fast enough.
I just couldn't figure it out... so I sat here in this chair and stared at the code... and thought... and stared... and wondered... and when I finally figured it out, it turned out to be something both obvious and quite subtle at the same time. I won't go into the details though. I'm just super glad it's fixed!
On a side note, it looks like the Fangame Beta 0.6.24 Download I submitted to TDC already has 33 downloads within the first day of being posted. I don't know about you, but that seems like a pretty high amount to me! Way cool! That puts that particular Fangame download at the top of the "What's Hot" list for downloads!
Anyway, some other nice updates were made too, but I don't have any screenshots for you today. Sorry!
