So, remember in ALttP how when you got close to the guards they'd run at you?
That's basically what I want, something that will randomly walk around until you get 4 or 5 tiles away from it, at which point it will charge at you. If you get 7 or 8 tiles away from it, it will go back to randomly walking around. It should take away 1 heart every time it hits you and die in...say 5 hits with the wooden sword? (forget how much damage it does)

Also those annoying bushes that would pop up when you got too close.
They should just sit there until you get within about 3 tiles away from them, then they get up and start walking towards you. If you get 5 tiles away from them, the sit back down. They take away half when they attack a heart and die in one hit.

The guards should wait about a half second before charging.
They both should have a 4 tile normal animation (bush: sitting, guard: walking), 4 tile transition animation and 4 tile charging animation.

If anyone else has done this, could you give me a link or something?
If they haven't, it would be really cool to have these.

One more much easier request, to make an ffc bounce while it moves.

I think I covered everything, if I just get the bounce script...that's cool to.

Thanks!

this seems to me as the same thing saffith made made with his guards script it must be here somewhere. check the scripting forum deeper.

Uhm... no, I believe Saffith's script was guards that catched you and put you in another screen if they did.
Likein WW and OoT'.
The file also included some guards that when you crossed their line of sight, they attacked you like normal enemies... what this guy wants, is to have them walk around like normal enemies, but start homing on you when you get closer.

Right?

Yeah... as he said..
I'm sorry, but it just feels like you're just gathering up posts, as you go along saying "Yeah, Saffith can do that! Ask him!" and such... which really isn't helping much... if he wanted, he COULD just ask one of the scripters... which isn't hard, because the number of them are low... so it's easy to remember em all! icon_biggrin.gif
Just letting you know and stuff.

Well to answer your lucas92. I do not have the time to sit in notepad and do the script because im busy with my quest. And i dont want to give the guy's hopes up. And im not trying to gain posts as that doesnt mean a thing in pureZC. And im just giving him alternatives because the number of scripters is low.

See post#8 for an FFC bounce script. (geez, I wish more people actually looked at that thread.)


Also for the guards' did you want help scripting them, or someone to script them for you? If it's the former I'll be happy to help out.
...now that I think about it, that sounds pretty much like a cross breed between my custom armos and ninja script. I'll have to take a look at the code a little later though...

Then how did you learn scripting that quickly? There is low amount of good documentation for Zscript. If I ever learn the more complicated parts, I will make a very big tutorial.

For the bush, I only want him to move horizontally and vertically.
For the graphics, pretty much while he's sitting, one of those ML bushes by PrinceMSC and while he's walking, the same but with some kinda' critter thing underneath.

EDIT:
I need a script, or help making it, for an ffc to bounce across the screen, not off the walls. Thanks anyway Gleeok.

Twight_knight: i learnt scripting by reading and editing other people's scripts and asking them questions. I also learnt by busting my behind on the zscript wiki and making small scripts to large ones. Its quite simple. I was surprised. Ill maybe give a more clearer basic tutorial someday ^_^
