Vgstation13: Rocknuts force and throwforce isn't scaling at all

[RealestEstate]

what the title says. whichever idiot coded them fucked something up.

[Exxion]

For some fucking reason, the code that sets the thing's potency in New() is spawn()ed off and doesn't happen until after the code that should set the throwforce based on it has already executed

[RealestEstate]

is it in initialize()?
that’s where the rest of the grown food has its forces defined based on thorniness and etc. What I might do is put a conditional in initialize to check if the src is a rocknut and use the potency scaling formula instead if true.

[Exxion]

1. The rocknut does it in New() instead
2. Never ever do typechecks on src

The rocknut fanbase is dying, hit the like button if you're truly rock hard

[RealestEstate]

yeah I know there’s a throwforce define in its New(), the problem is it’s being called too late right? wouldn’t the solution be to place the check in initialize()? I wouldn’t be type checking since that is a big no no, I’d be overwriting initialize for rocknuts specifically and so on and so forth

[Exxion]

Again, initialize() is spawned off, so putting it in a child would not work
I'd just remove the spawn() from the parent but maybe it's there for a reason

Do it, remove it and let's see what happens.
