I created a higher evolution of Rope (not the standard Bombshoe), some sort of "boss type Rope" and gave it all the attributes of a Bombshoe (Weapon: Bomb Blast / Walking Enemy / 4 Frame 4 Dir / W 16 H 2 / 1 Shot / Explode / Death Attribute 1 = 1 / Death Attribute 2 = 16 / Walk Style: Rope). I know the death attribute 2 is the damage dealt by the "last hurrah", so I didn't set that to 8, but to 16 instead.

 

So ... now ... why won't it splode? It just dies like any other enemy does. I am using the 2.50 version of ZQuest and ZClassic.

What version are you using, exactly? If you check Misc -> About, it'll give you a build number. Build 29 is 2.50.2, build 30 is 2.5.03 RC1.

 

There was an issue with enemies not exploding in some 2.50 versions. Unfortunately, I don't remember anything more specific than that. I don't remember if it was fixed in 2.50.2 or after, and I'm not sure it's the same issue you're talking about.

It's Build 30 (2.50.3 RC1). Thanks for the quick reply, by the way. ^^ I'm also glad the bug is known, at least kinda, so that makes me feel better that I probably designed the enemy correctly.

I think, it's a good idea to continue building in a later version 2.53 or maybe a 2.55 Alpha builds (they offer great innovative features)

[Matthew Bluefox]

Yeah, I'm just used to build with the 2.50 version because I'm so familiar with it.

 

PS: I have installed 2.53 and will test it on ZC 2.53 with a saved QST version from 2.53 ZQuest.

I have saved all quests in 2.53 and played them on 2.53 to test ... and the Wannabe Bombshoes finally sploded. Thank you for the help!

2.50.3RC1 had a number of issues and was never officially released in the public venue. IDK why you would use it, but it is good to see that this is resolved. That ZC version, on zc.com should be moved to an unsupported category as it was never finished and was never released.
