It is possible, but the author won’t implement it due to the limited performance. ---

You can make the walls higher, though it’s just scaling one layer of walls instead of stacking multiple walls on top of each other if that’s what you want ---

I have a feature request! can you add a block with an 8 frame animation in it that makes the selected sprite’s image a certain frame from that animation depending on the angle between you and them and what direction they are facing? similar to the original super mario kart ---

This feature has build-in from the first version, right? In the test file of this extension(main.ts), I set directional animations (a 2d image array) for each sprite. ---

I’m pretty sure that can be implemented on a project level, no need to add it to the extension itself ---

Hi! Iv’e been making a backrooms game with this extension for a week now, and just recently I expanded the tilemap. But when I did I found that there were walls on the floor. I checked the tilemap but all the wall tiles had wall on so I have no idea whats going on. can someone plz help? heres a screenshot: ![arcade-Backrooms (2)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/1/165f28f38f1820174736c88ce1fb9e94755b021d.png) Thanks! ---

you are using a set copying sources, instead of the extension, right? Delete these files(especially you don’t want the floor feature, which is not released yet), then import the published version of raycasting extension would fix it. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/a/aaac5068fa54ad09adae35de2b016a5e77e77aef.png) ---
