About The Pull Request
Falling down a z-level while standing up will apply the damage directly to your legs.
Felinids who fall down a z-level while standing will always land on their feet.
Cats (basic mobs) are capable of falling down z-levels without sustaining damage.
Why It's Good For The Game
Add some more depth to falling down. (No pun intended)
Rather than dropping down a level and walking it off after getting up, you might dislocate your leg.
Also adds some more species interactions. Felines might be able to give people the slip easier when dropping down into the undertram, thanks to their cat-ness.
Changelog
🆑 Melbert
add: Falling down a z-level while standing now damages your legs rather than your entire body. This also means falling down multiple z-s may rarely break your legs.
add: Felinids now land on their feet if they fall down a z-level while standing. This replaces the knockdown with a short slowdown, and also has the trade-off of causing more leg damage.
add: Cats can now fall z-levels without sustaining damage.
