Making it possible for the player to hold an item while they're being shot out of a diagonal pipe...possible?

Hi there,

In one of the levels I made in the first world of my hack, I just stumbled across a problem with the use of a diagonal pipe...I noticed that if you were carrying an item before entering an exit pipe that caused you to get shot through the diagonal pipe, the item would make it to the area with the diagonal pipe, but the player would not be carrying it upon getting shot out.

Anyway, I was hoping that a blue P-Switch could be carried while being shot out of the diagonal pipe (in order to get to a high ledge), but it looks like I may have to revise this part so that the switch isn't needed. However, I was wondering if it's possible to make the player able to carry an item while being shot out of a pipe? If not, it's no big deal to me.

Thanks in advance.

The mods are likely to lock this for being an is it possible to thread.

Yea of course it's possible. Try checking the rom map or all.log. It sounds like something that can easily be done. Unless it's caused by his speed or something which would make no sense.

My bad...that's one of those things that always seems to nip me in the bud...whether to ask if something is possible, or asking how to do it, because it's possible to get the same answer regardless of which side of the coin it's on.

If this needs to be closed, that's completely fine, I should have re-worded this better, sorry.

Mods don't like those types of threads because technically anything is possible in smw hacking as long as it stays in the limits of what the SNES can handle, and they don't like how people can't realize that it is possible.

Now a "How would I" thread would be better I'd say.

Everyone knows something like this is possible if they have half a brain. These type of questions tend to be followed by "how do I do that," which is the question they should've asked in the first place.

"Is it possible" questions are absolutely meaningless unless it's about the limits of the hardware and NOT the limits of the software (in this case lunar magic and other tools). Software limits might actually be obstacles in higher level stuff, but here, they're nothing.

'shrug' I'll re-word the question.

How do you make the player be able to hold an item if they got shot out of a diagonal pipe, without dropping it (that is, if they carried an item into the pipe that leads them to the diagonal pipe)?
