Make one of the new colored spikes ignore protection

So hm why not?
They are already in the game by now so you just need to add like 3 lines of coding?

I neeeeeeeeeed iiiiiiiiiiiit.

Some of my maps can give the player the prot effect as powerup and stuff, but it really annoys me that most of the lose-triggered systems must have the turn-off-prot-system-turn-on-prot gimmick, it just takes space!

It can be any spike except the red one because that stupid campaign **** is too hard for me.

PLEASE ALLOW ME TO BE CREATIVE IN THIS CREATIVITY BASED GAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Re: Make one of the new colored spikes ignore protection

Re: Make one of the new colored spikes ignore protection

Are you suggesting a customizable protection that you can modify to protect against certain hazards?

nope, i just want that one of the hazards to ignore the protection effect

I know this can be countered by placing heal removers and stuff, but that is clunky and just takes space most of the times, you have to set a switch that you have "heal equipped" but the heal itself should be enough for that purpose!!!

also, placing heal removers and switchery thingamabobs around the map is ugly as heck

they literally added colored spikes because the community asked for them, using brown spikes for everything was ugly

if they value the visuals so much, why not this?

Re: Make one of the new colored spikes ignore protection

an special hazard that alway skilll isnt that bad for switch systems to not abuse this this sould be very clear that tis hazard will ALWAYS kill you and if really eneeded made tp be able to buy with +1 or +5 ( or any + number) there shoudl be 2 variants an poisoin variant and an instant kill variant

Re: Make one of the new colored spikes ignore protection

Alternatively, add a block that sends you to your last checkpoint without killing you. This way, it doesn't have to be a hazard and doesn't conflict thematically with the protection effect.

True but I'm assuming OP found a way to make their system more elegant by using checkpoints instead of portals.

you telling me to set a bunch of switchery things around the map so i can record the checkpoints to keep prot?

no thanks

just add this idea, its simple, cheap and pretty straightfoward

So you're saying it's straightforward to have a protection effect protect from one color of spikes but not another? That's not straightforward. Not only would it make things harder with certain kinds of colourblindness, but it would also be hard to explain to beginners. Coins opening coin doors makes logical sense, but one spike color working inconsistently when combined with another specific feature in the game? Not so much.

That said, I can empathize with your problem. EE simply does not work well with certain dynamic world types. Complex systems require complex switch machines, which can work well for some worlds but not for more fast-paced or open worlds. Or maybe players just want to make their vision a reality more easily like you expressed with your post. I don't know the solution to this but it would need a major design change better fit for EEU.

1: Make the black one do this, maybe? I don't understand much of colourblindness, but iirc black/white pattern are pretty distinguishable unless you are total colourblind

2: Are you not considering "learning curve" and stuff? As a begginer player there is no way for me identity what is a low jump and what is a low gravity unless I touch it, so then i learn.

3: You comparison was not the best, there is absolutely no connection between the coin/door mechanic and the hazard/prot mechanic, but i got it. If it is 1 color that works different, i think its just a matter of learning to identify and to use. Also, if I see something that looks similar but has another color, I WILL expect that it works different from the other just because it has another color (megaman power eg)
