Hedgewars Sandbox ( + video)
Dear Hedgewars community,
I would like to present to you a Hedgewars mod by the name of Sandbox. Sandbox allows players to spawn projectiles, effects and other items wherever they want on the map.
The mod uses a custom menu where you can select the weapon or effect, the amount you want to spawn and whether or not to add a fountain effect. Then you just click on the map where you want the selected item or effect to appear. And mostly, chaos ensues!
As you will now immediately understand, the mod is not meant for serious gameplay. But rather to test weapons to their extremes, create as much havoc and find as many weird bugs as possible. The odd server crash is welcome too, of course.
But that's enough talk for now: the reason of this post is mainly that I finally got round to making a video of the Sandbox mode that you can watch on Youtube.
If you would be so silly to try this for yourself, MrBougo has set up a GIT repo where the Sandbox scripts (and some other fun stuff as well) can be downloaded. He would like to apologise for his menu code to anyone who might feel offended. In his words "I stopped when it started working".
I would like to close off this post with a big thank you to the developers of Hedgewars for allowing us to do all this fun stuff.
Kind greetings,

Small adjustments: Theme and style/Snowstorm, itchy barrels
I've made some minor adjustments to Theme:Snow and Style: balanced random weapons. Is it OK to post them here?
Nothing fancy, but just if someone is interested in that without having to change the files himself, please have fun!
Snow theme:
just the Snow theme. But now a snowstorm so the stacking effect of snow comes to bearing. Red flakes when it comes to Sudden Death.
Random weapons:
Now with Barrel health set to 34 so you can still vounce them around a bit, but they explode much faster //EDIT and much more barrels ...//.
Unlimited lamp and rope for better burrowing and moving around (very intersting in my view together with making use of random stuff).
Rounds and sudden death time are longer now.
Place in [strike]/themes re. in /Scripts/Multiplayer[/strike] the DLC folder.

Will be online for some days.
(BTW, how about accumulating water, like snow but fluit and with drowning capabilities, for a Rain theme?)
Barrels
Hey Community,
why is it no longer possible with version .20 to take a good rope swing and drop your hedge on barrels to make them smoke and eventually explode? It was one of our shoppa essentials to kill others without having a real weapon and we do not understand why there has been a reason to change it the way it is now. Is there an reasonable explanation for it?
Thanks!
Tanja
Release for OS X 10.6-8?
Any hope for a Hedgewars .20 for sub-10.9 OS Xes? Don't want to push, just really looking forward to go on the space mission ...
