spaceship/Rock.gd

extends Area2D

# A gatherable crystal of asteroid ore lying on a planet's surface. Picked
# up by flying any ship over it; the fleet doesn't need to stop.
#
# Deliberately drawn as a PERFECT HEXAGON rather than the irregular lumpy
# polygon Asteroid.gd uses. The two are never on screen
# together (asteroids are space-only, rocks surface-only), so the player
# can only tell "collect this" from "this hurts" by learned shape language:
# irregular and jagged reads as a natural hazard, regular and faceted reads
# as something valuable and meant to be picked up.
#
# It also drifts toward a nearby ship (see _physics_process). Nothing
# harmful moves helpfully toward you, so the pull doubles as a readability
# cue on top of making gathering feel less fiddly.
