Known issues (please let me know if you have more):
Certain (or most) Caching scripts for images like Jets cacher might cause an error. I have yet to create a fix for this.


Q: I get no bitmap error for system/graphics/shadow.png?
A: Do you have the Shadow Image file in your graphics/system folder? If not, Put one there.


Q: Can I make my own shadow (Customize it?)
A: Yes you can, With image editing software. You can make your shadow look what ever you wish. Just make sure to use opacity and transparency well. Render the image in .png format to keep the transparency.​

This looks really useful, so I will probably use this (proper credit will of course be given).
But I have a question: is it possible to define differently sized shadows for events? I use a couple monster sprites that are quite large, so a human-sized shadow wouldn't work with them.

I was just thinking of implimenting the "shadow_size" comment further. there is built in shadow_size stuff already for jumping interaction.

ill need to look in to this a little bit.
