sp_notouch

Prototypebool sp_notouch(int active_sprite, bool no_touch[-1])

sp_notouch() gets or sets the no_touch value for the active_sprite. It is primarily used for missiles and positive sp_touch_damage() internally, and is not known to be used in any DinkC scripts.

If no_touch is 0 (default), the sprite is able to be hit by missiles and be hurt by touch damage.

If no_touch is 1, the sprite cannot be hit by missiles and the player cannot be hurt by positive sp_touch_damage().

Internally, if a sprite is hit by a missile, its no_touch value will be set to 1 for 100 milliseconds so that it isn't damaged on every single update.

Similarly, if the player is hurt by positive sp_touch_damage(), its no_touch value will be set to 1 for 400 milliseconds so that it isn't damaged on every single update.

It has no effect if the sprite touches the player with a sp_touch_damage() of -1.

However, because of an internal timer, the no_touch value will be reset to 0 unless one of the two situations described above are in effect.
