anotherwalljump.lua - I still don't get why people like Walljumps in Mario

anotherwalljump.lua refurbishes an old walljump script I wrote in 2017. Its aim is to basically just replace Sturg's and PixelPest's libraries, neither of which ever had strong voices backing them, especially now that they're fairly old.

Features:
- 2-Player compatibility
- Different walljump settings per character ID (optional)
- Some customizability.

Spoiler: show

Most simple usage example:
local aw = require("anotherwalljump")
aw.registerAllPlayersDefault()

This enables walljumps with the default settings for the 5 default characters. Default settings can be viewed in the file.
Further customization commented in the file.

Another one bites the dust
Anyway, I'm going to be using this in my upcoming project. Totally coincidental that you release this just before I started making any levels for it.
So if I just want to use the default settings I just leave the lua file alone?

You don't have to touch anything in the lua file unless you want to modify the library beyond the options that are accessible from the outside. Anything prefixed with aw in the file is something you can access and modify from outside. The library won't do anything if it's just loaded, since characters have to be explicitly registered. Either like done in my example, or using the registerCharacter function.

This looks like the walljump mechanic in Hanzo Castle from Grand Poo World 2, nice

I cant crouch

Added in 1 minute 10 seconds:
I bounced on a noteblock and now I cant crouch until I walljump

[MarioLover64]

Turns out the real problem was that sliding but not jumping took my ability to crouch

[Emral]

Fixed a bug where latching onto a wall would disable the player's ability to slide until a spinjump was performed.

BTW idk if you saw me mention before but there's a weird bug that happens if you climb on a climbable (such as fences or vines). You won't be able to wall jump / slide down walls after climbing on something regardless of button presses etc. It's weird because those seem to be completely unrelated?

I don't see that bug report when scrolling up the thread. I'll look into it when I have time to.

I reported it in Codehaus a while ago. Tbh I probably should have mentioned it here :/

[Emral]

Fixed a bug where Mario wouldn't be able to forget what he climbed on, shell-shocking him into being unable to touch walls.

Looks great, will use it. Thanks.

Hello!
I have updated the code.
The new version fixes an issue where you were able to slide down lava, hurt and some invisible blocks.
As a consequence of this, you can no longer slide down spikes and munchers either by default. If your level relied on that, I built a solution for you, though:
(where aw is shorthand for anotherwalljump or whatever you load it as in your code)
Using the functions aw.whitelist(id) and aw.blacklist(id) you can make any block you wish wallslidable, or prevent any usually wallslidable block from being just that.
That way, lava, spikes, nonsolid blocks, or even sizables can become wallslidable surfaces in your levels (though initiating a wallslide on one might be very dangerous or sometimes impossible).

Enjoy!

Does this fix the tail timer problem? its kinda annoying not being able to tail swipe when using this.

No, because I can only fix bugs I'm aware of, and nobody informed me of that issue before. Best way to let me know is by posting in this topic.
I will get to fixing that one momentarily.

E: Fixed.

the script is not doing anything

[Emral]

the script is not doing anything :(

Did you follow the "most simple usage example" in the first post?

[chasey1237]

i was testing! also i only needed it for a single fucking star coin placement that i scrapped anyway cause im a fucking idiot! but legit i keep forgetting stuff!

[Emral]

I have no idea what you're talking about... oh you edited the post to remove any reference to memes.
If you need me to help explain something, it would help if you described your problem clearly so I have an idea of how to help out.
