Subject: Re: 'walk on fire blocks' poke?

 

"interesting... so by switching this on and off
(in place of the superjump poke) you could in effect
choose to use the fire block as a 'background' block
instead."

Well, not exactly. You know how in JSW the fire block
takes effect the minute even one pixel of Willy is in
on it? Well that holds when it's an air block, and
Willy will fall through it, and through whatever block
he was standing on when he first stood on it. This
can be annoying when cheating to get round a
difficult room, but if it were used as an actual effect in
a room, it could be spectacularly useful
