quote doesn't move at one pixel per tick though
as well, is he going full speed? are you in the air? is the booster being used? there are a lot of considerations.

make sure the npc's are set to the correct tile sets

as a matter a fact you can have npc's set to the Guest sprites rather than the 2 sprite sets set to the map

Both of them need to be at Tileset 1. How do I change that?

make some of the npc's you are using set to tileset 2, or if thats already being used for a boss, use the tileset that isn't guest for the tileset 1 and just set the npc's to take sprites from guest

Ohhh! I'm sorry. I misunderstood your last post. I'll go set them to tileset 2. Thank you!

Or you can just do it in CE by going to his NPC settings and changing the Attack damage.

You can do the same in Booster's Lab using the "Edit npc.tbl" feature under "Entities".

the npc.tbl lets you edit touch damage to.

but not this, I think you need asm for that

Despite being Balrog's first form, it doesn't show how much damage his grapple does. However, it does let you change his health; in this case, Balrog's health would be 300 instead of whatever it would be when you first fight him in vanilla Cave Story.

Changing the damage seems to combine the damage with the one in asm. So if you set the first form damage to 8, it will do 10 (Dec) damage altogether. But sometimes it just does 8 and doesn't hug you.

So I replaced 2 with something higher, and it only worked when he was leaping at me.
Did I do something wrong?

So... does he only do damage when he's jumping, or does he only do a higher amount of damage when jumping?

He does more damage while leaping at me, but still does 2 damage when he runs into me.

Hmm... did you change the damage he does in npc.tbl? Because you shouldn't

EDIT: I missed one of the damage functions. This should be the other one.
