Better Bounce

As modifer pls...

I don't think it's annoying to work with in practice, rather than specific implementation is half-baked and needs to be refined before it could be considered more seriously.

It's been a while since I've touched the code for this mod but Bouncing Bursts and Energyspheres sitting on the ground after not moving is a quirk of how it's implemented, I think if this mod was refined further in the future then explosives spells (ie firebolt, nuke, explosive projectile modifiers and so on) should ignore bounce rules and explode the moment they hit an enemy.

Certain items like disc projectile would also come into question on whether they should bounce or not, as their bouncing property is largely considered a punishment for missing rather than something to make use of like is the case with bouncing burst.
It would also be good to explore the idea of how bouncing spells would interact with piercing, should they bounce off on the first hit or travel through the target ignoring bouncing properties?

I think there's a lot of room for improvement of the concept I don't feel I can dedicate the time to, but if a modder ends up making a fully fledged mod out of this tech demo I would love to see it in action one day.

My one complaint with this mod is that I think it shouldn't mess with projectiles lifetime when not moving. You'll have bouncing bursts and energy spheres just sitting on the ground for several seconds after they stop moving, still able to damage things. As other's mentioned, it also ruins firebolt spells, they don't explode when colliding with enemies or walls anymore.

Good concept, annoying to work with in practice.

does this turn off the player damage bullshit with bubble bounce?

Are the arrow/disc proj spell supposed to just go right back at you when you shoot anyone? it makes using them really awful

aww man my fireball doesint blow up other than that this is epic

Double Short range homing with disc go brrrrr

Modifer submod please

Piercing should immediately invalidate this :)
