Diagonally running between chests stucks

Post by Zaflis »

Placing two chests (any chests) on ground like so:

Code: Select all

C 
 C
and then trying diagonal (W+A, W+D, S+A, S+D keys) running between doesn't let player through. But when you release movement keys and then press again it goes through. Also if pressing just 1 movement key, for example W key to run up it slides between chests and goes through smoothly. So just the diagonal behavior is inconsistent and same from all angles. Some rare times it passes through directly.

At least seems that running between factory and chest diagonally goes smoothly.

Using Steam's version 0.12.33.

There's propably just a minor bug in the collision code, but it's unreasonable to say that this is "not a bug". If think at the issue logically, it should be easier to diagonally pass through chests than vertically or horizontally, not opposite. I agree it's minor case though.

And player's collider should be a circle, not rectangle those other threads make it out to be.
