tModLoader Bouncy Coins

[Jofairden]

Greetings Terrarians,
Today I proudly present to you: Bouncy Coins.
Github

version 0.1 media (even bounce)

version 0.1.2 media (uneven bounce)

About
I made a super tiny mod that makes coins bounce. Yes, they bounce up and down.
This mod requires this fix, and thus tModLoader version 0.8.3.5 or higher. If your client does not meet this requirement, the mod will not enable.

Please leave any suggestions here.
Currently, v0.1.1 makes them bounce evenly, and v0.1.2+ makes them bounce unevenly.
Since v0.1.3, the mod is fully configurable! This requires you to have FK's Mod Settings Configurator mod.
Please note the displacement only functions for drawing the item, the item's actual position isn't changed.
(this mod only changes vanilla coins, which include but are not limited to: copper coin, silver coin, gold coin and platinum coin)

Greetings Terrarians,

version 0.1 media

About
I made a super tiny mod that makes coins bounce. Yes, they bounce up and down.
This mod requires this fix, and thus tModLoader version 0.8.3.4 or higher. If your client does not meet this requirement, the mod will not enable.
Please leave any suggestions here, I'm willing to create several different mod files that make the coins bounce in a different manner/speed if that's wanted.

Cool mod. I'm definitely using it. Here is my suggestion:
You probably have tried todo this, but it would be cool if the coins didn't all bounce in sync.

This should be possible. The thing is, they currently use Main.time, which for all coins will be the same. I'll need to figure out a workaround to do this.

Probably, when the coin entity is created, assign it a random number to add onto main.time
Alternatively, check if the coin has a number assigned to it, if not, then assign a random number to it.

You can't just randomly grab a variable from somewhere, it's not as easy as you state it.

Uuuuuhhhhhhhhh, what?

 

[Jofairden]

Uuuuuhhhhhhhhh, what?

In other words, wait for tML v0.8.3.5 to release to use this mod.

 

[Bonvoyage284]

This is a nice little mod, i gonna download an try it

Um, am I missing something? num1 = Main.rand.Next(A number) assigned to a variable would be a one-off randomly generated number

But you see, where am I going to store this. THAT's what I'm talking about. And that'll most likely be using ItemInfo, but still.

You'll need tModLoader v0.8.3.5 or higher, which isn't released just yet.

If v0.8.3.5 isn't out yet, then how did you get the technology to do this?

OP is a time traveler confirmed.

Because the stuff is open-source and you can get it yourself. v0.8.3.5 has been 'ready' (read: working with the new vanilla update) for 5 days already, before the new version was released. That said, v0.8.3.5 is out right now so go ahead and update, and try out the mod

Oh lordy. I've been staring at the gif sample of the mod for more than a minute straight, I can only imagine how satisfying this mod must be in-game.

You can play with the mod right now if you have the new (v0.8.3.5) tModLoader
Remember only the latest versions makes them bounce unequally, as far as I've heard people seem to like that more over the first version.

 

[Le tromp du Jawa]

was this updated ?

 

[Jofairden]

was this updated ?

(late response) Mod should work fine?

Also, I was thinking about adding some commands for the mod to control some of the 'settings' while self- TML settings pages aren't implemented yet.
For example like

/bouncycoins amplitude 50

could change the amplitude to 50 (or any number really!)

Please tell me your thoughts

Sounds lovely this mod works amazing and is a great small addition , people tend to sadly neglect the smaller great mods

yeah I agree
I can actually make my own UI if I want to instead of commands, probably nicer

Could ? but you have that command mod which recently came out as well .... , but in general modders don't do enough with money systems in terraria honestly :/

honestly a UI is easier to use though, and I like making them =P
