01:15:08 BFDiscordBridge <Quartz> Correct
08:01:18 BFDiscordBridge <raptor> A tale of two goal flashes. I wish to get rid of one. Which do you guys see?

09:12:31 BFDiscordBridge <numbers> i see the square-wave blinky one, rather than the sine-wave blinky one
09:12:49 BFDiscordBridge <numbers> aka the orig one
09:19:27 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> Yeah I’ve never seen the fade one
10:41:22 BFDiscordBridge <raptor> and you never will! (thanks)
10:49:01 BFDiscordBridge <raptor> I'm simplifying the code base and there's a lot of weird old/new style preferences lying around...  i think to make transitioning to Bitfighter easier for Zap! players
10:55:58 BFDiscordBridge <Jojo> i agree i like the blinky

12:52:11 BFDiscordBridge <raptor> @Jomskylark or anyone, is this still a thing that's wanted?:   https://github.com/bitfighter/bitfighter/issues/388
12:59:11 BFDiscordBridge <Jomskylark> Haha I forgot about that. I think it would be great to have more sizes of TestItems like there are with asteroids, but it's not like a big deal if it gets added or doesn't
13:00:40 BFDiscordBridge <Jomskylark> There are some interesting things that can be done with smaller testitems but soccer balls and resource items can be used in their place
13:06:21 BFDiscordBridge <bobdaduck> it wouldn't make sense to do teamed asteroids as a new item because the whole point was to fix asteroids
13:06:45 BFDiscordBridge <bobdaduck> I did have the idea of making them an engineerable also but the main thing is asteroids as is have zero strategic value
13:07:27 BFDiscordBridge <bobdaduck> possibly even negative value I'm willing to argue as is they only detract from the game
13:08:44 BFDiscordBridge <bobdaduck> if they're teamed it makes sense to be able to build them, kind of like an expensive mine made with a resource item, it would play different enough from mine though since as I coded them you couldn't teamkill with them
13:29:50 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> I think making big testItems could be fun
13:30:20 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> I like team asteroids but dislike engineering them
14:49:44 BFDiscordBridge <raptor> I'm not sure asteroids can be fixed
15:15:24 BFDiscordBridge <Jojo> they could be removed
15:15:40 BFDiscordBridge <Jojo> so any maps with asteroids crash the game
15:15:42 BFDiscordBridge <Footie> you would RUIN PERUSSIS LEVELS?!!???

15:46:58 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> Make testItems have a breakable option
15:47:16 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> And replace asteroids with them
16:54:23 BFDiscordBridge <Jojo> unbreakable asteroids 🤔
17:19:04 BFDiscordBridge <raptor> DeathItems
17:29:48 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> obstacleItems
17:30:12 BFDiscordBridge <Skybax> Both unbreakable versions and versions with a health symbol in the middle than can break
