I think if I half-noticed it, I mentally chalked it up to "inertia", though a trivial test proved that false. Sometimes a single flap does a little jump, and sometimes the player just sat there. I think most people DO rest on the floor 'til the ball is headed their way but I think a lot of people then start in w/ a relative flurry of flaps, not noticing that the first was ineffective. (someone said the floor should be lava, making the player flap all the time, but that seemed a bit mean and resulting in tired players. I mean, you have to learn how to hover just to hit the ball, it's not like it's a new skill.) I also took the chance to lighten up the grey of the score strip and floor. -- KirkIsrael@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://kisrael.com "The real problem with having mind-controlled zombies as my servants is that it's tough to get up a really sincere-sounding round of cheers when I've come up with a plan I think is worth cheering." --Maximus, X-Factor ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
