It's probably a bug, but we haven't checked it out yet what's going on here.

Another technique you can use in LoG2 are delayedCalls. The syntax is delayedCall(scriptEntityId, delayInSeconds, functionName). Here's an example: function startSequence() print("Sequence started...") delayedCall(self.go.id, 1.5, "firstEvent") delayedCall(self.go.id, 10, "s...

We did the main campaign with the default map sizes. The shipwreck and others are placed on the border of the map but the models or the object definitions have a lot of offset in them.

These were objects that we did at some point during the development but we never ended up using. Their textures/materials have probably been stripped away at some point. We probably should remove the asset definitions for these objects.

It's a collision box to prevent dropped or thrown items from ending up inside the model. Basic pillars and walls have hardcoded collisions so this is only needed for special cases like statue and pedestal bases. You can use debugDraw = true to visualize the box.

Good idea! Done.

I think you should be able to do this in a more "correct" manner by adding an item component on the monster. Or at least some point during development we did this to an ogre

Don't get too used to it! They'll update fast any time me or Petri is happening to work on the page but unfortunately we're still multitasking with a lot of other responsibilities too

We're working on the editor documentation and scripting reference as quickly as we can. You can always check the current progress at: http://www.grimrock.net/modding/

Whether or not it is bad design is debatable and subjective but this is indeed the intended design. The goal for the combat in Grimrock was a game of rhythm, tactics and reaction instead of trying realistically simulate a group of four individuals. I'm not saying that what we chose to do was inheren...
