Put simply: I use BreakShield() on enemies with "Hammer breaks shield" set, and I can damage them as if they had no shield. However, their sprites don't change. How would I fix that?

All it does is break the shield regardless if Hammer breaks shield set.

You'll need to manually change the original tile which is what you set in the editor.

Protip: You can use this to give enemies firing animations too.

 

int npc->OriginalTile

Also, can't you set the special tile (the middle box where you choose enemy tiles) for that? That's what Darknuts do, right? They use their special tiles when their shield is broken? Or at least that's what I think...

Since this thread is in scripting discussion, I think he means autoghosted enemies. But yes, normally darknuts work like that ;D

And I hate not noticing things like that...

Unfortunately, this is not for AutoGhosted enemies — this is for any kind of enemy, with a sword move that mimics the Hammer.

I think I can probably find a way to store shieldless tile numbers in Misc Attribs for both AutoGhost and normal enemies, though. Thanks for confirming that this is necessary.
