    I made a small mod called "BoringPowder" that provides some improvements to the controllable stickmen elements. Full list of current features is in the readme on github.

     

    DTEC element setting: Instead of changing into every element they bump into, stickmen now set their element by taking the CTYPE of any DTEC they bump into. They also copy the DTEC's TMP setting. I might change the element from DTEC to something else in the future, or maybe even make a new element just for that purpose.

     

    Stickmen properties: Give stickmen unique properties by changing their TMP value. Properties currently  include finite ammo supply, igniter particles, and heat resistance. Check the github page for more info.

     

    FOAM: New element: foam. Will harden into an element set by its CTYPE after its life counter reaches 0. If a stickman's element is a solid, they will fire foam set to harden into that solid.

     

    PROJ: New element: projectile. Turns into its CTYPE once it stops moving, leaves a trail of embers behind. Mostly used for special stickman element firing interactions.

     

    CROS: New tool: crosshair. When used, makes STKM fire at your cursor. Currently specific to STKM, doesn't do anything with FIGH or STK2.

     

    FTTD: New tool: fight-to-the-death. When used on two FIGHters, makes them battle eachother for your own amusement.

     

    Special element firing interactions: FIRW, ARAY, CRAY, and DRAY have special interactions when you set stickmen to fire them. Try them out!

     

    Various improvements: Generic improvements, including air control, health bars, and wind to propel shot gas particles.

     

    Version 1.1.3:

     + Added FTTD.

     + Added PROJ.

     + Added health bars.

     + Special interactions with ARAY, CRAY, DRAY, and FRAY.

     

    Version 1.0.1:

     + Added FOAM; hardens into a set element, used by stickmen to fire solids.

     + Added CROS; tool that makes STKM fire at your cursor.

     At the github link, check the "releases" section; download the one corresponding to your operating system (i believe they're windows 32 bit, linux, mac, and windows 64 bit)

    oh found it. On you github you should also make a list of the tmp values for the tmp propterites ^_^

    All the tmp properties are listed there; that's what the "ammo", "igniter particles", and "heat immunity" sections are for.

     

    If you want to give a stickman any permutation of those properties, you should add up the values of the properties you want. For example, if you want to make a stickman use ammo (+1), fire bits of BCOL (+6) and be partially immune to heat (+8), you'd give them a TMP property of 15.

     

    The values of the possible TMP properties are spaced out so that there's never any ambiguity when you add them, as long as you don't have an invalid configuration (like trying to use two of the mutually exclusive igniter properties at the same time.)

     

    I can update the readme next time i update the mod to make this more clear; i should also add some more TMP properties in general (cold immunity, pressure immunity, toxic immunity, and total invincibility could be nice)
