18 August 2006 00:25 (UK time) I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but I made a gun that shoots bullets at a speed of 50 and while testing it the bullets would sometimes pass right through the wall I was shooting! Can you do anything about this James? You need to login to create posts in this thread.

22 August 2006 17:27 (UK time) I discovered this myself. My solution was to make a new projectile sprite that is very long and thin, so it wouldn't skip over small tagets or go through walls. The problem with my solution is that these projectiles (about 50x1 pixels) are often caught on walls and units when travelling at an angle. Perhaps a solution could be to have a projectile that hits only units and terrain that are in the path of the "tracer" effect used for bullets with speed -1.
