Is it possible to disable the shadows for an specified enemy?
And also something to make the enemy fly around slower.

If this is possible without scripting, let me know. And if not, it would be great if someone could make one or both of these scripts, they should be simple I guess.

Thanks

I don't know how to disable shadows for one enemy, but have you tried adjusting the step speed in the enemy editor?

[Supindahood]

I can't edit step speed to a keese with bat movement according to the Wiki, and i tried it ingame but didn't work.

No you cannot remove shadows.
No you cannot edit the step speed of a bat.

Can i not with a script?

[Mero]

Oops I made a mistake. You CAN turn off shadows by setting npc->Extend to EXT_NOSHADOW. As for changing the step speed, only way I can think of doing it is using ghost.zh and Ghost_VariableWalk8.

Okay nice, if it isn't possible to decrease movement speed of the 'keese', is there a way to make an FFC just move around randomly?
(it doesn't do any damage and has no health.)
Ghost could work but I do not know how to do it

Its just an butterfly flying around and I made it an enemy to have its movement.

I can write the ghost script if you want but you'll need to use RC2.

[Supindahood]

Sure, that would be great. And i'm using RC2 and I go the ghost files in the ZC folder

CODE

ffc script Butterfly{
     void run(int enemyID){
         npc ghost = Ghost_InitAutoGhost(this, enemyID);
         ghost->Extend = EXT_NOSHADOW;
         ghost->CollDetection = false;
         int counter = -1;
         while(true){
             counter = Ghost_VariableWalk8(counter, ghost->Step, ghost->Rate, ghost->Homing, 0, ghost->Haltrate);
             ghost->Dir = Ghost_Dir;
             Ghost_Waitframe(this, ghost, true, true);
         }
     }
}

I get this error

CODE

ghost.zh, line 335: Error S10: Function printf is undeclared.

when trying to compile my script after including import "ghost.zh"

I think the FFC compiles without errors.

you need to import "string.zh before ghost.zh"

[Supindahood]

Okay thanks.

To set it up set attribute 11 to whatever you have GH_INVISIBLE_COMBO set to and set attribute 12 to the script slot number. It uses random rate, halt rate "or turn frequency in this case", homing and step.

[Supindahood]

I changed it, but nothing happened when i try it ingame.
