ocean waves don't push things
« on: November 11, 2007, 01:28:00 pm »
I don't know if this is just my fort, but there is a lot driftwood on the beach below my current fort and the ocean waves aren't pushing it at all.  Now, anyone who's walked along a shoreline knows that that just isn't the case (laws of physics and all that), so I'm assuming that this is a bug.

If software was real world, then it'd be something equivalent of hitting a nail with a hammer and having a building collapse on the other side of town.

Don't worry people, sometimes -moments occur

The ocean waves push a lot of other things, however. And driftwood is more of a terrain object than an item - like a boulder - so it isn't pushed. Ocean waves push even lava.
