DEV NOTES

Here is a pretty old request that was waiting in my planned mods list. I really liked this computer idea because almost all the abilities suggested for it were adding something really new to the game :)
So in the order we have: A firewall, whick is litterally a wall made of fire XD As you can expect from such a wall, it will repell thing and light them on fire :p Making the repulsion effect reliable took some time as NPCs were just bumping on it with no effect the first time I tried it... But I figured out a way to push them away in any case ^^
Then comes the copy/paste ability. That's something I sort of did in the Ninja Goat mod already, except that the copies have a different purpose in this mod: They do distract enemies! This is an ability that have been requested a lot and I wasn't sure it it would be possible or no... And the answer was yes, it was even easier than what I expected X)
Being able to delete items when you want was a frequent demand in the request thread, so I implemented that in this goat because it made sense with the Recycling idea ^^
And finally the Search/Print commands were something i really wanted to do since I saw the Magic Headbutt mutator from the Payday DLC. Basically this mutator let you turn existing objects into random other objects, but the interesting point is that those random objects are not taken in the current map, but in the list of all the available items in the whole game! Sadly I couldn't find a way to get the complete item list from the beginning... So I ended up building it myself out of random items provided by the function used in Magical Hedbutt. Making playable items out of those were not that hard, except for bodies: You can't really make bodies with ragdoll phisics, animation and all out of the simple body shape :/ So I kept the shape anyway, but it looks broken in most cases as the collision are not correct... Anyway the print function works remarkably well with static items, which is really cool :)
