Dart traps should be able to fire along a vertical line #45

Closed zaqen closed 11 years ago

zaqen commented 11 years ago

A simple thing that I've been missing with normal terraria wiring is a dart trap that can fire upwards and downwards. Would it be possible to configure if the darts are fired along a vertical or horizontal line? Since there are 2 settings of a dart trap, facing right but being set to vertical could fire the arrow upwards and downwards for a dart trap facing left.

This will be looking really odd.. not sure about it.

Functionally, it's a good idea, I think. Yeah, it'll look weird but it does open up more possibilities for traps and adventure maps. Having horizontal facing dart trap blocks firing vertical projectiles is better than both using another block for vertical projectiles and no vertical projectile firing blocks at all.

It could just be a preset option, made to happen with modifiers; which is what I think zaqen was thinking of when he posted.

If it's all about possibilities, then it's not really more work to add an Projectile Angle setting, so one might even configure them to shoot on 45° and whatever. The angle would then be inverted for right facing Dart Traps.

As no one is forced to actually make use of this and hopefully one who does makes sure they hide their Dart Traps appropriately, I'd assign it to 1.2 for now.
