Baba Is You - Arrow Properties Plus

BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD: to maintain mod compatability within my mods while keeping mod management simple, this repository will not be updated further. Instead, I recommend you download to my baba modpack repository here: https://github.com/PlasmaFlare/plasma-baba-mods. Future updates to this mod will be pushed to this modpack so that mod compatability is less of a hassle.

A Baba Is You mod that adds variants of existing properties as directional arrows. Also adds arrow properties where their meaning changes based on their facing direction.

Best if you look at some gifs for a full explaination:

Installation

• Requires Steam version on beta version 398 (future beta versions may or may not work depending on how much the base code is changed)

To install, copy both Lua and Sprites folder into the levelpack you want to include the mod. Make sure the world_data.txt in the levelpack folder has mods=1 set underneath the [General] section.

The new text blocks can be found in the level editor at the end of the list.

• Note about directional shift: directional shift's implementation rewrites a lot of the game's code and slightly changes how stacking shifts behave. If you want to use the old behavior while keeping this mod, open Lua\add_to_editor.lua and set enable_directional_shift=false. This will make the arrow shift properties behave like regular shift, regardless of direction.

• FOR MODDERS/LEVELPACK MAKERS: if you want to include this mod with other mods, I've overriden a few of the main game functions but made sure to minimalize my changes so that you can easily place it in your versions of the overrided functions. The lines surrounded by --@ Turning Text are my changes, while turning_text_functions.lua provides the main functionality and contains no overrides. However, there is no guarantee that this mod will work nicely with other mods.

Please credit me if you do use use this mod in a levelpack or include this with other mods :)
