Embiggening a single hero?

[splendidland]

Hello! I'm currently working on a part of my game where you get a party member who is quite tall, and I want to use the Large Sprites script on them and only them. I currently have a script in my game for making only a single NPC big that has arguments for the NPC to be enlarged and what hero graphic it should use, I need a script that'd have those same arguments but it doesn't seem to work for heroes.

Code: Select all

plotscript,embiggen npc,npcToGet,herographic,begin
variable(npcSliceHandle)
variable(npcInterim)
npcInterim := get NPC slice(npcToGet)
npcSliceHandle := lookup slice(sl:walkabout sprite component, npcInterim)
trace value(get sprite set number(npcSliceHandle))
replace hero sprite(npcSliceHandle,herographic)
realign slice(npcSliceHandle,edge:center,edge:bottom,edge:center,edge:bottom)
end

Can anybody help me with this? Thank you very much in advance!

I think you could probably limit the embiggening to a specific hero ID by using an if then statement. Like do a for loop through your party member slots, and do "if hero ID == 2 then (embiggening stuff)" on each slot .

I'd type up a real example but work's been crazy.

The <a href="https://rpg.hamsterrepublic.com/ohrrpgc ... ites">walk tall</a> example scripts work for heroes.

You just need to make sure that you only embiggen the one hero that is supposed to be bigger

Code: Select all

script, embiggen a specific hero, begin
  variable(hero, sl, hero id)
  for(hero, 0, 3) do(
    hero id = hero by rank(hero)
    if(hero id == hero:the big one) then(
      sl := get hero slice(hero)
      embiggen walkabout slice(sl)
    )
  )
end
