Hello there! I am requesting the addition of the physics-based giant snowballs from Chapter 4, Season 1 to Creative 1.0 and UEFN as a device.

The giant snowballs would be perfect with the Brutal Bastion prefabs and gallery that was added in an update for Creative back in CH7S1. I also think they have a lot of potential for Creative maps, especially those themed around the Winter and the holidays (since Seasonal: Winter is the 4th top filter in the Prefab and Gallery categories).

**Potential Uses:**

- A method for attacking enemies
- Environmental hazards that player(s) need to dodge
- A form of mobility
- Various Creative/UEFN experiences based on rolling a ball around

If a giant snowball device was to be added to Creative and UEFN, it could be implemented in one of these following ways:

**A.** An option for the already-existing Physics Boulder device (since they share the same visual sound effect indicator icon).  
**B1.** A standalone device with a base, similar to the Physics Tree and the Physics Boulder devices.  
**B2.** A standalone spawner device, similar to the Ball Spawner, Wildlife Spawner, and Vehicle Spawner devices.

**Potential Device Options:**

- Indestructibility Options: On / Off - Determines if the snowball and/or base is indestructible.
- Damage to Players/Creatures/Vehicles/Environment Options: [number] - Determines the max damage a snowball can do to a player, a wildlife creature, a vehicle, or environment objects. Damage is dependent on the snowball’s size, and the velocity of the object when it hits.
- Enable Hiding: On / Off - Determines if players can hide inside the snowball.
- Hide Collided Players: Yes/No - Allows the snowball to hide a player it hits.
- Roll Speed While Hiding: [number] - Determines how fast players can roll the snowball while hiding.
- Minimum Size: [number] - Sets the smallest size value of the snowball.
- Maximum Size: [number] - Sets the biggest size value of the snowball.
- Minimum Health: [number] - Sets the minimum health value of the snowball based on its size.
- Maximum Health: [number] - Sets the maximum health value of the snowball based on its size.
- Change Size While Rolling: Yes / No - Determines if the snowball changes size while rolling.
- Environment Dynamic Size Change: Yes / No - Determines if the snowball changes size depending on the terrain.
- Spawn Method: Manual Spawn / Hit Ground or Base With Pickaxe - Determines if the snowball is spawned automatically, or if the snowball will be spawn if the base/ground is hit with a pickaxe
- Max Snowball Spawn Amount: [number] - Determines how many snowballs can be spawned from this device or in general.

**Potential Functions:**

- Spawn Snowball When Receiving From: - Spawns the snowball.
- Enable Device When Receiving From: - Enables the device.
- Disable Device When Receiving From: - Disables the device.
- Release Snowball When Receiving From: - Releases the snowball, if spawned. (If the snowball is a device with a base)
- Destroy Snowball When Receiving From: - Destroys the snowball.
- Hide Nearby Player(s) When Receiving From: - Cause eligible players up to 10 meters away to hide in the snowball.
- Eject from Snowball When Receiving From: - Forces a player to jump out of the snowball.
- Increase Snowball Size When Receiving From: - Increases the snowball’s size.
- Decrease Snowball Size When Receiving From: - Decreases the snowball’s size.

**Potential Events:**

- On Snowball Spawned Send Event To: - Sends an event when the snowball is spawned.
- On Snowball Released Send Event To: - Sends an event when the snowball is released. (If the snowball is a device with base)
- On Snowball Destroyed Send Event To: - Sends an event when the snowball is destroyed.
- On Hiding Send Event To: - Sends an event when a player hides in the snowball.
- On Stop Hiding Send Event To: - Sends an event when a player jumps out of the snowball.
- On Snowball Size Increased Send Event To: - Sends an event when the snowball increases in size.
- On Snowball Size Decreased Send Event To: - Sends an event when the snowball decreases in size.

I would honestly really use the giant snowballs in a platforming map I’m working on. It’s set on a snowy mountain, and they would play a big role in my map. I would create sections where the player would have to dodge runaway snowballs, and other sections where the player would have to hide inside a snowball and roll down.

So, I would really appreciate it if a giant snowball device was added to Creative 1.0 and UEFN one day, and hopefully—the snowballs would be in a fixed state. Thank you for reading in advance!
