Is this a reference to the Tarahumaras? I really like all the tomes descriptions.Ixnatifual wrote:Written by a man whose name bears an odd resemblance to a toxic beverage, this book's pages detail how men of the enigmatic tribes of the south have learned to run for days without tiring.
Code: Select all
onDie = function(self)
barreldrop.randomdrop()

Yeah. And the vague comment on the writer is a reference to this dude.J. Trudel wrote:Is this a reference to the Tarahumaras?

okay so I know what I did wrong....I was asking how to fix it....not drink more Jack Danielspetri wrote:You're spawning in the cell where the script entity is. Perhaps you wanted to pass the self parameter to randomdrop?
Code: Select all
onDie = function(object)
barreldrop.randomdrop(object.level, object.x, object.y, object.facing)

I was actually quite surprised (and pleased) to see this reference, I'll have a look at this dude he seems to know his stuff.Ixnatifual wrote:Yeah.

Daniel's Running Formula is a very informative read, although it is most certainly overkill for someone like me who just runs casually now and then.
