Traps not working? :( Its been a very long time since I built the trap that churns stuff out on my own server but I was thinking about it just now and I think I know why the one in the video was built in the air.

realism aside, which sword in Witcher is this based on? Or is it a original sword in the Witcher style? Sword wrap and metallic damage details could use more work
peanut: I didn't say hawken himself was full of crap. However, a number of the points in his original post are full of crap. If I said "Iron melts at 20 degrees Celsius, that's a fact" ... then it'd be fair to say that my statement was full of crap. This is because my statement is a lie. Some of hawken's statements are…
