Popping soap bubbles and catching irrlights

Post by CaddoPuma »

Are there specific tools needed? I've tried right clicking, left clicking, shift clicking, shift right clicking... I just cant figure out how to do either of those things mentioned in the subject. Help?

I tried that but they are so tiny and quick, maybe I didnt quite click in the right spot. Will have to keep trying.

You just right click them like you normally would, they just have a REALLY small hit box so they are hard to click. Usually when I need to catch an irrlight, I spawn one by making pyrite sparks and dropping them in a really small room, thus spawning one, and then I spam click it.

They are ridiculously hard to catch without it!

That's a smart way of doing it though ... :)

Thanks for all the tips. I did manage to pop some bubbles. I used the small room technique.

Don't forget to zoom in your camera, too. Lot of people leave it zoomed out. I know that the free camera has some bugs with it, and clicking objects may be an issue. I've not really tested it as I like the ortho camera (haven't read any complaints about it, though, so just tossing it out as a possibility).
