Passes right through.
« on: November 01, 2012, 07:08:30 pm »

I know coins do this when thrown, but what exactly triggers that message, size? and of what? If I throw a coin at a roach, does it still pass right through? What if I throw the roach at a sperm whale? What exact requirements are there for triggering this message?

Some items are so small they technically don't exist... But do exist at the same time.

Coins are one of these, they will pass through anything because they don't exist.

So, if something is small enough, it "passes right through" regardless of the size of the object its hitting?

coin pouches also double as a mini backpack so you can hold your weapons or any item you want offhand. though only just 1.

That's odd. I've never heard of that before. Apprently coins must be smaller than bees, because I've thrown bees at people demons, and they just glanced right off.

Might have worked better if I put all the bees in a bag and thrown the bag of bees at them. The whole stack of over 11k bees was pretty heavy, after all.

It's usually a message of a failed modding when tissue does not exist. Can you show a log of your situation?

This explains so much, thank you, I was wondering what triggered the message.
