Are you sure you aren't playing with ethereal?

So falling nodes hurt you ? They hurt you when they are falling on you or when you are stuck in them after they fell ?

They hurt you when you're stuck in them; heavier/slimey materials do more damage, the idea is that sand will slowly suffocate the character, gravel and cobble will hurt it, slime and mud will drown it.

slime?

General name, meant to refer to any dirt+water node; e.g. "silt" in Darkage.
Actually it's dry, but given the name I made the mod handle it as "mud".

okay!

0.4.0 released

- wallmounted and ceiling torches do damage

how i do in a mine now?

Have you tried digging tunnels 2 nodes wide? Or just placing the torch in an alcove?

i didn't tried at all, cause if i use it with geominer, i'll die with falling sands and i have torches everywhere in my house. I was suggesting to add maybe an option for torch not to make damage. You hold torch in hands anyway, and that don't burn you, i don't see why a torch on a wall would do so.

This mod is an attempt to make the game's world a bit more similar to the real world, so:

Q: Do I hold a torch in a way that it could damage me? No.
A: Then handheld torches in game don't damage the character.

Q: What happens if I put my face on a wallmounted torch or if I stand on it? It burns my face or my clothes, damaging me.
A: Then torches in game do damage the character, regardless where the torch is placed because it is a fire node.


This is an admittedly "hard core survival" mod, designed for my subgame; thus even if your suggestion sounds reasonable - adding an option to turn off torch damage - I'm not sure that it would make sense for the mod itself: vulnerable to sand and invulnerable to fire?

0.4.1 released (patch)

- dps values fixed

Hamlet wrote:invulnerable to fire?

not what i said. You can walk near a torch without being put on fire. Especially if the detection is on the whole block, it's not very precise, it will act like if torches were permanent flames.

Release 0.5.0

- Adds support for Castle Masonry (Castles++)

Release 0.6.0

- Adds damage to cacti
- Adds support for desert_life
- Tweaked floor torches to deal damage only if you stand very close to them or over them.

Where did it go?

Trashcan.
Some damage depends on nodes' damage setting.
Some on ABMs (not very performance friendly).
Some on badly designed ABMs.

It needs a complete review and rewrite, but I haven't got the time now.
If you still want to use it, here it is:

The fact that sand and gravel that fall on the head of the careless miner didn't do any damage bugged me. Adding node damage to them is a brilliant idea I'll reuse.
