Subject: Suggestion for a new type of cell
While pondering upon various JSW-related issues recently, I had an idea
for a new type of cell (cell-class, is it normally called?), something
that could be introduced in a future new hacklevel of the JSW64 game
engine, possibly.
The idea is to have a cell on which Willy can land safely after falling
from an "altitude" higher than 4 character-rows. Right now the only way
to guarantee a safe fall is landing on a rope, isn't it? Well, if there
were individual cells on which he can land safely, it would make
possible an interesting room design (jumping through ILBs to land on
that particular cell, etc.).
What do you all think? And would it be difficult, from the technical
point of view, to create such cell-type?
Daniel
P.S. I don't recall this idea being mentioned before, but if it was, my
apologies to the author - please step forward! :-)
