"Snolf" turns Sonic Robo Blast 2 into a golf game. Instead of controlling Snolf like a normal character, you must shoot them across the levels like a golf game, timing your power meters.

Gameplay

Swing: Aim with the camera and use the jump button to time your shots'
horizontal and vertical power.

You can hold the forward button when you press Jump to charge vertical power
first and you can hold back to shoot after only charging a single axis.

You can hold the Jump button to brake while rolling.

Mulligan: Hold the Spin button to undo your last shot. Use this if you get stuck.

Tip: If the camera is getting caught on a wall use first person view to aim.

Control rebinding

The mulligan button can also be rebound in the console with the following:

  • snolf_mulligan_button spin
  • snolf_mulligan_button jump
  • snolf_mulligan_button ca1
  • snolf_mulligan_button ca2
  • snolf_mulligan_button ca3
  • snolf_mulligan_button off


Boss mode
When fighting a boss Snolf gets some extra leeway. Against a boss you can take a shot after touching the ground (even if you bounce or roll), after hitting the boss or after getting hit by the boss. Bosses also drop six rings when hit. These features can be toggled off if you prefer (see commands section below).

Everybody's Snolf
Snolf isn't just for Snolf. With Everybody's Snolf everybody can snolf. Use the everybodys_snolf command to get everyone in on the fun. It even works with characters from other addons, but I can't guarantee it won't break anything.

Shot guide
If you want some help with aiming your shots you can use the snolf_shot_guide command to enable a targetting system.

Save states
To help even more, if snolf_save_states is enabled then you save and load the player state with the custom action buttons. Custom action 1 saves the current player state, custom action 2 loads a state and custom action 3 undoes the last save state. The player state includes the player position, momentum, ring count and shot charge. This is not a full save state like you would have in an emulator. It only affects the player and can't be used between dying and respawning.


Commands
In addition to the ones mentioned above there are many commands provided to let you customise Snolf. Generally commands can be toggled on or off by calling them without any argument or can be called followed by on or off.

In multiplayer games these settings affect all players, can only be used by admins, and are announced in chat when activated.

Commands listed have their default value listed after them in square brackets.
