![]() Thus, a single pixel can be responsible for an animal missing a jump, as shown here. How much of an animal needs to be 'covered' overhead to place it in walk mode? A sheep, skunk, or mole only needs a single pixel within its 7x5 collision mask to be covered any pixel composing the red line of the previous picture. You can also see that a sheep simply walks over a 4-pixel bump, because it was in walk mode when it passed the close-range jumping point. The following picture shows the line of all pixels causing it to be in walk mode, for a given ground level. Only pixels located at a height of 49, 50, 51, 52, or 53 pixels above the animal's ground level will place it in walk mode. Salvation armies, old ladies, and cows will always perform their little hops. Walk mode only applies to sheep, moles, and skunks. In these situations, they can be said to be in "walk mode." In walk mode, animals will simply walk over any uphill segment that they can, turn at any uphill segment that exceeds their max climbing height, and fall straight down after walking off any edge or gap. You may have noticed that animals simply won't jump when they have a lot of land above their heads. When walking downhill or uphill, each animal differs, having its own signature max slope. If an animal starts walking downhill, WA calculates where it would be in the next frame, given its horizontal velocity, and if the slope is too great between the starting and ending points, the animal jumps. However, this doesn't mean that an animal will necessarily walk down land with a constant downward slope of say, 2 or 3 pixels. The animal doesn't actually jump until its collision mask has nothing to support it, at the frame where it’s hanging in midair. Only once the gap is 4 pixels deep will an animal jump off the edge. Now we ask, what happens when an animal encounters a 1-pixel deep gap? As the picture below shows, it will continue walking, unaffected. ![]() ![]() And if an animal lands in the right spot, it could perform a close-range or far-range jump up to 7 pixels closer than usual, if one of its back pixels detects land. To determine when they'll jump, one simply needs to find the first column of pixels that an animal will find itself roughly 20 or roughly 50 pixels away from. In real games, animals usually encounter large chunks of land instead of thin columns of pixels. This strange detection method is explained by the 7-pixel wide, 5-pixel tall collision mask each animal possesses each pixel in the collision mask checks for a close-range or far-range pixel at its own height and 8 pixels above it, and makes the animal jump if it finds one. And if the column happened to have no yellow or red pixels, it would simply pass under. If this column had no yellow pixels, but any of the red ones, the sheep would do a close-range jump. As long as there exists even one of the yellow pixels in this column, the sheep will detect it and do its far-range jump. The picture below shows a sheep approaching a column of pixels. But when the pixel is raised to a height of 9 through 13 pixels, it will once again detect it, this time starting its jump around 50 pixels back (measured to its front legs), which you can call its far-range jump. Now if we increase the height of this lone pixel, we find that the animal detects it and does a close-range jump at heights of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 pixels, but passes under the pixel at the 6, 7, and 8 positions. You can call this the animal's close-range jump. So what happens if a sheep, skunk, or mole 'sees' a 1-pixel tall bump right in front of it? As long as there are no other objects to make it jump beforehand, it will always jump roughly 20 pixels from the bump horizontally, measured to its front legs. As the animal travels forward on this plane, it's only going to take into consideration objects close in front of it to determine when it jumps, and for now, we only consider objects above the height of the level plane, so no gaps. It helps to look at an animal's behavior when it's moving on a long flat plane, because you can always think of the pixels the animal is standing on as its ground level. ![]() 5 What Can Animals Walk Over in Walk Mode?.There are men's, women's, and mixed teams - each golfer pays an entry fee which entitles them to a registration gift, lunch, and door prizes at the end of the tournament during the awards presentation. On the day of the event, golfers participate in an 18-hole scramble. Local businesses and some of our wholesale suppliers purchase "Hole Sponsorships" and generously donate door prizes. The purpose was to earn money to give to community projects in our service area. Sun River Electric had the very first golf scramble in the summer of 1999. 2023 Sun River Electric Golf Tournament: July 29, 2023įor information contact: Leanne or Chris at 40
