    It is both annoying and useful. It is annoying because whenever your about to kill someone, you accidentally start shooting grass and you either end up dying, get kill stealed, or waste ammo.
    It can however be helpful for when your being attacked, like if your on a good kill streak, and your about to die you can just hide behind grass or vines to save yourself

    I wouldn't mind bullets being able to pass through blocks such as vines and grass, but being able to break the grass/vines is a different story. Say there is a spot on a map that you can only get to be climbing vines. Once you are in the spot, you shoot the vines to destroy them. If the game is infected, then the infected are going to have a hard time trying to infect that player, leading to some pretty OP spots. As for passing though vines, it would be nice to see implemented. It does get rather annoying when a player hides behind vines as cover :I

    You said it.
    Like "Guardian" people glitched ALL THE TIME with the vines.

    I actually appreciate people tagging me, helps clear up confusion.

    It's not super hard really, if you implement it with a custom snowball class extending the bukkit one anything (including noclip through spectators and teammates) possible.

    I still don't get Eclipse... A little help to get me started? Yet my plugin runs 100% off command blocks :stuck_out_tongue:

    That is a great idea. It stinks in the map Overgrown especially.

    Oh. Didn't even consider that.
    But the snowballs are handled by CraftBukkit, not Bukkit, as far as know.
    Is it possible to reference CraftBukkit as a library?
    I haven’t tried...

    Snowballs in minecraft DO NOT go through grass. If everything was an arrow instead of a snowball this would work. This thing is pointless now. WILL NOT HAPPEN SOON.

    Well since bullets are actually snow balls this would be very hard to code but if it can be done it is a good idea.

    I know with sworn guns there is a line that allows you to edit blocks that "crack" like sand and stuff.

    1. Sworn guns is a fork of PVPGuns.
    2. When you quote a comment that have a tag in it, remove the @ so I don't get tagged again.

    I noticed the problems with it, but I also have seen arrows going through tall grass/vines. On maps like Overgrown, It's real funny to see a cross bow person doing that and just racking up kills. I think it'd be a good addition for bullets to go through these items.

    A lot of maps that have vines and tall grass. This would be amazing if they could add it in. The positives I feel out way the negatives. This really should be added.

    Omg, just about to post this after playing a gut-wrenching game of Downpour. But, @F1r3tar is on it once again, Minecraft registers grass as a half-block and this not allowing entities to pass through it. Firstar got there before me :smile:

    But as previous people said, it is possible to make the bullets destroy the grass, like they destroy glasspanes.

    Oh yes... I guess you're right but that may take so,e time to figure out within the plugin.

    Stay OT, please.


    IMO, I'd like it so that bullets, when passing through tall grass / flowers / other appropriate blocks, both disintegrate the block and continue flying as per usual.
