Slime Salad

I'm probably just going to use timers, I can't wrap my head around how to rewrite what I've already done in terms of making values update every tick. It'd probably be March by the time I even got the engine working if I did that, and I'd rather work on making an actual game instead.

Interesting. I'll try to rewrite my scripts so it updates things per tick.

You can even use you as a base to start from.
Complete with pixel based movement, sword attack, sword charge up blast, and, enemies

I'd like to have a look. Could I have a link to it if you don't mind?

Alright, I'll have to check those out. I'm still a scripting idiot (but I'm making progress!)

Since this is kind of a thing now, could we get a sticky on this thread?

This is in regards to the Zelda-like. I'm having difficulty coming up with a way to have player actions that don't totally freeze up the main "while true do" loop, so that other things can happen, e.g. a script for an enemy taking damage and being knocked back when the sword slice hits the...

BMR, I'm speechless. That looks utterly amazing.

I can't make any promises, but I'd like to try making some sound effects in Famitracker soon. If I have any success with it I'll be happy to let others make use of the sound effects.

Even though I don't currently use onetime tags, that's reassuring. My OCD would go bonkers if I skipped over tags like that.

What General Discussion thread is that? I couldn't find it, and looks like I didn't add a link to it on the wiki , so I'll just link to this thread instead... Oops, should have clarified. I posted it in the multicart thread on GD, realized a Q&A scripting question wasn't that appropriate, and d...

OK, I finally figured it out after examining what the "while true" loop was doing step by step... It wasn't re-checking the screen scrolling zones with "screen edge check" on the same tick after resuming playing movement, so if you were to hold the opposite direction key right af...

I'm having some difficulty getting the scrolling scripts to work properly. It mostly works, but whenever I walk to a different screen and then immediately walk back to the previous screen, it doesn't trigger the script and basically breaks the game. Try it out if you'd like: https://dl.dropboxuserco...

I should be able to figure out how to make Zelda 1 style scrolling scripts on my own. As far as hit detection for attacks goes, I'm a bit clueless. Are there any scripts I could look at for reference that involve hitboxes?

Whoops, I didn't know the Dismiss item wasn't a built-in part of the engine. I thought it went hand in hand with Team. That sounds like a good way to make sure people who spammed Gatcha trying to get a perfect tier 4 team don't accidentally delete Hati though. Also I just watched the latest Jontron ...

By the way, I seem to have discovered an engine bug while playing with Gatcha tickets.

It involves erasing Hati from existence via the Dismiss menu.
