I'm referring to "Projectile Piercing Fix", which you can find on the tModLoader mod listing. It should be the oldest one (and which works the best out of the box)

EDIT: This is the mod, which even works on Minions

I have made a few plugins to fix those issues, but they cause some balance issues and contain bugs. You could use them as a starting point, but they have too many problems to use without first fixing their bugs. I haven't decided if I want to try to make a mod that completely fixes everything yet.

This plugin enables local immunity on all weapons. Definitely breaks balance for bees. This plugin is particularly broken because it does not account for the hardcoded global immunity settings.

This plugin changes melee to use the first static immunity slot instead of global immunity so melee weapons don't block minions, etc from dealing damage.

I've investigated fixing the issue, and it will not be easy to apply these changes without side effects due to many special cases in the game's code. The game has hardcoded global immunty settings in Projectile.Damage() that need patching to work around. When I made the localNPCImmunity plugin I did not know about the hardcoded values and did not account for them. Some weapons even have some dodgy code that uses global immunity and local immunity simultaneously.

I suggest you read my post discussing immunity frames if you want to understand some of the complications of properly solving the issue.

While this may make bees and wasps incredibly overpowered, it also makes a lot of weapons MUCH more enjoyable to use, like Space Gun hitting 3 times per beam

The point is the projectiles need to be reviewed and fixed one by one or there will be bugs. The mod you referenced did this. I started making one, but it is very tedious.

Edit: I updated the mod to version 0.3.0.0 This is a massive plugin. Bugs likely. use the "/togglefix" command to turn the changes on and off for testing. Added mod details.
Code: 
For starters, The unused first static immunity slot is now used for melee weapon immune times.

==These were global immunity weapons with custom immune times. A special fix that gives them static immunity instead.

Love this. Thanks for making it and keeping it up to date.

There's probably more important things to handle at the moment, but any chance we could get a tweak to revert the behavior of Gravity Globe to pre-1.4?
 
Could you please make Gravity Globe double tap it so it functions similar to the Master Ninja Gear dash ability because the Gravity Globe is basically impossible the use with the booster on the Jetpack and similar things and it's annoying to accidentally invert the World and uninvert the world.

hey i like tweaker but tweaker is broken because 1.4.1.2 when comes new version?
Click to expand...
Only some tweaks are broken and even then i'm pretty sure you don't have anything to worry about, you can keep playing without the few ones that stopped working until the new version is out and THEN update
 
In a sense, I suppose. I find reversing gravity midair to be really obnoxious tbh, especially with just the up key. Makes it impossible to use it for other things.

This would work well for my intention though, and without nerfing the globe too. I just want to be able to use the up key without reversing gravity or having to unequip the globe, while still having the ability to reverse gravity. Changing the command from up to a double tap or even another key would work just as well, if not better.

Using boosters while upside-down is really fun!
I noticed while making this mod that the step stool can't be used with gravitation potions, but can be used with the gravity globe.

is there a way to make like in cheat sheet a button that you can magnet all items dropped on the floor on your map to you?
 
The Traveling Merchant Spawn Chance tweak might be calculating the daily spawn chance incorrectly.

At the default per-tick spawn chance of 1/108000, TT2 puts his daily spawn chance at 25%. The wiki, however, estimates it at 22.12%, using this formula: 1-(107999/108000)^27000 = 0.2212001339.
I'm aiming for a 1/3 daily chance; TT2 claims this happens at 1/81081, the wiki formula says 1/66591.

I don't know whether TT2 or the wiki is wrong here, nor do I know how TT2 is getting its numbers, because closed-source.
 
Came back after a long break to play Terraria again with this tool, kinda sad it doesn't work at all anymore. Can't even apply twenty different patches, game won't even start. I remember in the beginning of 1.4 how I could literally run hundred different ones. Ah, well. Was good till it lasted I guess
 
Okay, I admit my comment was a bit harsh, it works if you don't go overboard like me. All I wanna say is, I prefer the normal version these days, I'm a Journey Mode Player anyway so... Yeah. I wanna apologize.
