The helicopter event takes inspiration from the game Project Zomboid, in where randomly a helicopter will fly to to the player, attracting zombies and giving ingame lore.
After recalling someone on this forum talking about how they welded a sphere to their character to give them a rolling ability, I decided I’d try to add that to Project Magical Mary! Now players will be able to roll down slopes at potentially high speeds, as shown in this video (which shows PC then mobile).
Also, here’s a screenshot of it, with an added trail to indicate motion:
This works just like you’d probably expect. When any player’s character is generated, a sphere is welded to their HumanoidRootPart, which is marked as “massless” and doesn’t have collision. When the player holds the roll button (Q/L1), those two change, and the player’s Humanoid is put in the “physics” state, letting the ball take over and do its thing until they release it, undoing the changes.
Searching the forums, I’m assuming this is probably nothing special (and I apologize to whoever I ripped off) but I think it’s a fun addition to my experience.
Yeah so true, year by year the waywocs were getting posted later and later. Im pretty sure for the 2016 or 2017, it was posted before Christmas on the 16th. Now, its literally the 16th yet they still haven’t posted it
