8 years ago New scenario: you can throw "light" items (like the tools you start with in Core) through blocks quite some distance in some cases now. Seems distinct from the other case as it only works for some things, will go through the face of blocks with no need for cracks, and is affected more by q powering to max before letting go
The existing scenario still exists as well. Tested in a branch with changes from both #2172 and #2175 merged in.

Not a particularly high priority as it is hard to reproduce and easy to work around if you for some reason didn't mean to stick some item a couple blocks into the ground :-)
Grab a small item like the dynamite or railgun or blueberries from JS or so on. Throw it with
qwith some force into the horizontal split between two blocks where one is ground level and the other sticks up one block. With enough attempts/practice you can make the item squeeze between the blocks somehow and get stuck one or even two blocks deep before it loses momentum and does the little vibrating thing from being stuck between solid objects (can see by ghosting through the world)Probably has something to do with items more or less being 2D sprites, but not quite since they do have some minimal depth? Maybe they only look like they have depth in the world and are treated like flat 2D objects by the physics, so if hitting edge on between blocks they can squeeze through? Thus the need to throw it into a corner between blocks so the item will bounce and arrange itself in just the right direction as it hits.
