Ok, Last question of the day from me.

For my level I want the player (on normal flat gravity) to use a sling star fly upwards and land on the ceiling, I assume to make this possible I would use local planar gravity, how do I use this specific gravity controller?

Well, Gravity is weird.

This controller however, is simple enough to use.

Place it on the ceiling and rotate it X = 0, Y = 0, Z = 180 (Technically, X could be 180 instead of Z, but whatever :P)

if the small green line is pointing down, you have Upside-Down gravity! (Oh, you might need to change the scale of the gravity object though...)

So I don't need to mess around with the range and distance tabs?

No... BUT! Just to be safe, set them to the same number as the scale.

Gravity controllers are very similar to areas because their shapes and units are identical for most of the objects. A GlobalPlaneGravityInBox object has the same shape and scale like a box/cube shaped area.

Is it planned for Whitehole to render gravity as areas? It would be much easier to create levels that have different sized planets...

Nope, because I don't work on Whitehole anymore, lol. Sorry. The last edits were made about one year ago.

I have been taking a look at Whitehole's code, to see if I could implement this for my own purposes (and if I get permission, release it), but it's been a while since I last made a java game and I need to familiarize again. D:

Speaking about whitehole, sorry for the offtopic question but why is it that everytime a new feature gets added to whitehole, another one dissapears? We got like 5 versions of whitehole now and they all have their own features. Like the latest version can't edit paths and doesn't even show all objects. How does that even happen, and if it happens, shouldn't the programmer work to fix that bug instead of releasing something that is clearly broken?

No hard feelings, I just wondered.

Whitehole v1.4 was based on v1.2 and that version didn't support path editing due to multiple object selection. Yep, that was a bad idea, because the new property grid also caused a lot of problems. I had no idea how to solve these problems... Also, the v1.4 can edit all object types...well, except for paths. It is also the first version that supported ChildObj, GeneralPos, SoundObj and ChangeObj.

Is SoundOBJ only in SMG1? 'Cause I have high suspicion that it is also in SMG2.

SoundObj is SMG1 only. The Sound.arc zone file is in the same format as Map.arc and Design.arc and it is used for objects like SoundEmitterPoint or SoundPlayArea.

Hmm. Then how does the sound of mario going WAHOO play?

The sound that plays when mario gets launched off of the star ball ramp, but before the Rock dash ramp.
(The sound plays at 1:22)

Dunno, but this is not caused by any objects. I've just investigated the archives for that galaxy.

I've investigated too. I wonder if it is hardcoded.
