I don't really know how to ask for this one. Just looking for a 2x2 Keese, that flies around, hurts you, and dies. It'll be used for a boss, so an enemy ghosting ffc script should work wonders. 2 frames should be fine, it doesn't need to turn or anything. Adjustable HP, Power, Speed, etc. would also be great.

... I really should learn how to script.

I think it might work...

CODE

//D0:The number of the Npc in the list
ffc script extendNPC
{
    void run(int n)
    {
        npc GiantKeese=Screen->LoadNPC(n);
                GiantKeese->Extend=3;
        GiantKeese->TileHeight=2;GiantKeese->HitHeight=2;
        GiantKeese->TileWidth=2;GiantKeese->HitWidth=2;
               while(true)
              {
                        Waitframe();
              }
    }
}

You'll need the giant keese graphics be placed just like the original keese.
Then decide the hp with the enemy editor etc.

And place the ffc script when you want to extend a enemy. This work with any enemy. But some might ignore solidity.

I hope that works.

That script will work fine, apart from two small things.
TileHeight and TileWidth work in 'tiles', so you've set that up fine.
But 'HitHeight' and 'HitWidth' work in pixels, so you've set the keese to have a 2-pixel by 2-pixel hitbox, whereas it really wants a 32 by 32 hitbox.

The 'while(true){ Waitframe();}' bit will also compile/work fine, but it doesn't do anything, so it's unnecessary really.

CODE

//D0:The number of the Npc in the list
ffc script extendNPC{
    void run(int n){
    npc GiantKeese = Screen->LoadNPC(n);
        GiantKeese->Extend = 3;
        GiantKeese->TileHeight = 2; GiantKeese->TileWidth = 2;
        GiantKeese->HitHeight = 32; GiantKeese->HitWidth = 32;
    }
}

Oh... HitHeight works in pixels? lol

I made a custom boss a while ago and it was working just half... I think I've found the mistake. Thanks.

Lucas do you mind me editing that keese boss to make an oos aquamentus without the whole flying and dashing part he does?

[lucas92]

I don't mind.

It's a very basic script anyway. Anyone could have done it.

[Aslion]

It doesn't seem to be working properly, mind a bit clearer explanation on how to set it up? I'm either getting the tiles, the tiles set for the enemy, or the D0 wrong. Possibly all 3.
And thanks Lucas and Joe.

yea i know just by studying it now lol well im still trying to code and am in beginners class obviously =p

[Aslion]

Well, since drzchulo pretty much just hijacked the thread, I'll ask again.

Oops sorry =p ok 1st you have to set up the giant keese graphics like you would set up a regular keese. Go to the enemy editor and give it life and hit points set the type to keese. Set the ffc script transparent and set D0 to the number of the enemy on the enemy list. Hope it helps.

That didn't help me at all. I'm questioning what the hell half of that means, all you did was repeat Lucas.
Clear explanation, please.

You have to set up the giant keese graphics. Ok, you know how keeses are set up right? You have to set the graphics on your own just like that. On the enemy editor set the keese give it hp to w/e you want. And you know the rest. Do you need an enemy ghosting script?

[Aslion]

I don't know the rest. That's what I'm asking.
I don't know any of it. I MIGHT have the graphics set up right, but that's it.

Would it kill you to just take some screenshots and make a simple tutorial?

Edited by Lithium, 23 November 2008 - 02:28 AM.

[Christian]

Are the keeses you set up giant? After that give the keese life go to the screen you want the keese in, set the keese as an enemy , select the ffc combo transparent,set the script "extendNPC" on the ffc,go to D0 and put the number of the keese from the enemy list and thats it. Try that.

[Aslion]

You just love repeating yourself, don't you?

Take some ****ing screenshots and explain what the hell you're talking about or stop trying, please.
