[96x]Ceiling Monsters float away

Post by Hyena »

I used DECORATE to create a monster that crawls along the ceiling and shoots fireballs.

I gave it the +SPAWNCEILING and +NOGRAVITY flags, and I gave it a mass of 1000 so that it wouldn't be pushed back from projectiles. When it gets shot, it disconnects from the ceiling and slowly floats away o_O

This is a usually unwanted side-effect of the NOGRAVITY flag. No matter what you set the mass to, the monster will always float away.

Not a bug.

Is there any way to fix this?

Since there is no ceiling friction, unfortunately not. Why do you think there are no carrying ceiling scrollers. It's exactly the same. Try to give it an extremely high mass like 0x7fffffff. That should be enough to prevent any thrust by damage.
