tune hook_length 5
works buggy, sometimes its looks like lagging, sometimes you got teleported.

I guess you also have to make the hook slower

Yes making it slower should help. The problem is that the hook is fired with the speed of about 3 tiles per gameloop. This means that your hook is about 3 tiles long right after you fired it although you restricted its length to 5. (this is btw also the reason why you can hook a short distance while being in freeze and someone hammers/lasers you)

thx for explanitation. decreasing hook speed doesnt solve my problem with hook_length 0.
I want to remove player hooking. But if you already do that in special tune zone after leaving it, your hook will save effect (mean you will drag hooked player).

- player_hooking removing hook effect
- hook_length 0 even with hook_speed doesnt fix it too.

Probably hook_length 0 could be fixed? Or anybody knows any way to realize it?

thanks hmh, now i finally understand that. i always thought its buggy :O when you hook someone in freeze

Do you want that you can hook someone in one area, then you have to go through another area, where you cannot rehook?

You could do that with hook-teles. When you place everywhere in one area hook-teles, you cannot hook players there, or anything else, but when you hooked a player before you can still drag him there.

Allright, Blue.
But, this are is the main are of the map. So if here no any other ways without much spamming i`m rather leave this, i`m taking care about entities players.
Let me know please if this tune will be fixed.

Can you add this as issue on git please. hook_length 0 even with hook_speed 0 wont work as should be

well the problem about this is that a fix would likely break prediction of all old clients but I will have a look

Thx, HMH! Will be nice to have this possibility for mappers =)
