I have a problem with how the power critters attack. I wanted them have 30 attack, but whenever the shootable option's checked in the NPC settings, they remain at 12 attack. I tried the not shootable option and the 30 attack power's good. But I want them to be shootable with 30 attack Is there any way to fix this?

EDIT: Never mind. I found out this is a problem with the Solid option, not the Not Shootable option.

 

2 things:

1. I would like to know how to change the falling block (entity 279) Misery spawns from the block to a fire whirr (171) using ASM.

2. I also would want to know how (if possible) to make entities spawn infinitely in a boss battle while also being able to take damage. These are the commands:

.......<BSL0400<ANP0400:0100:0000<CMU0007<MNP0087:0017:0012:0000<END Is for the boss to spawn. the MNP moves a horizontal trigger onto the PC to activate this: <DNP0087<EVE0800

Event 800 is the spawner: <SNP0173:0013:0008:0000<WAI0200<SNP0173:0029:0009:0000<WAI0200<EVE0800

I tried to find a solution in the thread and I got the line just above. Only problem is that I don't take damage during the battle. I know a continuous event kinda breaks the game but I found no other solution...

 

I would like to know if I can add the key on the keyboard "C" to add a second function to the polar star's firing in ASM.

 

Does anyone know how to transport the player to a different maps with a pipe like the pipes in Plantantion teleport you across the map? The code is confusing and doesn't work too well when you try to adapt it to use <TRA.

From my limited knowledge of ASM, I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to. Although, it might screw with the rest of the weapons.

Have a null entity do a FAO and TRA when you first go through the pipe, and have it send the player to the second pipe in the new map (with the pipes being a tile 40).

 

Sweet, thanks. Why I didn't think of that eludes me... oh well, smart Enlighted One people answering my dumb questions as usual.

the pipes are transporting the player through the <MOV command which transports the player throughout a single map. <TRA transports the player to a specific map at specific coordinates instantaniously. the only way I could see you pull this off is that if the entire mod you where making was just one huge map using a long Vertical BMP tileset that contains all the tilesets you wish to have in it. the disadvantage to this though is that there is a limit to how many entities can be on one map.

 

goerge no don't ever make a giant map for your entire mod
all they needed was a way to <FAO<TRA by touching a specific part of the pipe

 

don't ever make a giant map for your entire mod

too late, I've already cast out the idea, someone is now bound to do it!

 

Wow, my next mod practically wrote itself! (I am, of course, joking)

 

So I need some assistance, how do I change the thing at the bottom that says 12.4 Pixel or something like that? I can change the version number with a resource hacker but I can't figure out the name thing.

 

It's under the bitmap folder, called pixel or something. Replace it with whatever.

 

Uhh I don't see it v.v Sorry I know I'm dumb but I just don't see it anywhere

 

you have to edit the exe with resource hacker and edit the version info

Is there a way to inspect the Red Demon after death? Like, you kill him (in boss fight) and then you press down on his statue and it gives you some text? I can't figure out how to get it to work correctly.

What's precisely not working? I would assume using both the death and interactive traits, coupled with proper flag usage would work fine.
