playerphysicspatch.lua - smbx controls like gunk

I just tried this out in Beta 4 and it does absolutely nothing. What gives? Am I missing something?

Did you try loading the API in a local Lua file?

What's an API? If that's an alternate name for the code itself then yes I have tried that.

Edit: Never mind, just me being a noob. Turns out just I forgot to put the Require in my luna.lua.

just for the record, i believe they mean "library" and not "API". an API is something else entirely.
in any case, if creating a file called "luna.lua" in the episode/level folder and placing

Code: Select all

require("playerphysicspatch")

inside doesn't work then it's hard to say what the problem might be if you have no other libraries loaded which could be interfering.

This is awesome but I do wanna mention that it seems to really mess up "slippery physics". Now anything with the slippery property is more like slime. It INCREASES friction with this patch on as opposed to decreasing which is what it's supposed to do.

I actually found a fix for this; if you change 0x3C to 0x0A on the 25th line, it'll disable the patch for players who are touching ice. However, since this is an edit to the slope-sliding patch, it also comes at the sacrifice of smooth slope sliding. There's probably a way to have both "fixes" active at once, if you know your way around the code (unfortunately I don't).
