Author Topic: the search for the unused emitter "playerfootpuff"  (Read 494 times)

while messing around with the emitters and looking at their code in the files, i found this.

obviously i dont have access to the datablocks, but this is actually an unused emitter. it doesnt appear anywhere in-game.
what was it used for? why is it here?

"Player Foot Puff"
With a name like that I can guess it's an emitter for when walking on a certain material or something, like snow

I'm pretty sure that's left over from the base TGE game where you play as an orc in a medieval setting, you leave foot prints and dust comes out with each step

Those never happened in Blockland though, even back in v0002, so those mechanics must have been removed early on in development

Also, you can actually access the emitter datablocks by typing 'LightPuffEmitter.dump();' into the console to view the datablock and other commands that can be used with it, or you can type 'LightPuffEmitter.save("Add-Ons/Folder_Name/fileName.cs");' into the console to save the datablock to your Add-Ons folder so that you can view and edit it

actually that doesn't work, it seems it has been removed ENTIRELY from the game, sadly. what a shame, i would like to see that emitter.

this is nice finding bro, nonetheless
