In addition, maps that are too large will end up breaking the Map System. (Not sure what the width or height would have to be in order to break it; but if I remember correctly there's one map in Jenka's Nightmare where the Map System doesn't display a map?)

the largest a map can be before crashing the Map System may as well be 320x240. But even then the Map System starts off like it won't work, and then it loads the map for you.

The map system won't be a problem (considering I'm not planning to use it anyway), but it looks like i'll be able to make large enough maps, thanks.

 

How do you use the player character's ANP?

Iirc a simple way to apply anp to the player is to put a NPC 0 at the player's location, <CNP it to NPC 0150(Quote) and use <HMC so that you won't have two versions of the player on the screen, don't forget to make sure the player is in the right position when using <SMC to bring back the player, and then remove/change the npc to npc 0.

 

Hey can I add more items than are present in the game? It looks like there's space for more tiles, so I figured there would be the ability to add more.

 

Yeah I know, but I want to be sure that I can, just in case.

 

You can't generate a flag list in CE.

I think that it'll work with <GIT but not work with giving the actual item <IT+.

 

I still need to know why <TUR keeps going after a <CLR.

It's made to work till another <MSG or and <END, and I would expect more people to use a <CLR after a <TUR to clean the message box and not stop <TUR than people who would like to use <CLR<TUR everytime.

 

What's the ANP for a teleporter? TP lights too.

Anp for telepoters is 0001.

Tp light are an npc, it's hard to see cause it's so small, right below the teleporter Npc.

 

Does anyone know what the sprites below the Nemesis bullet sprites are used for, if they are used?

 

Alright, what exatly do I do with the Org2.10 compatibility hack. Which one do I use, and what does it replace?

 

The square ones? I always thought they were either the Snake or that unused weapon.

Unused weapon?

Hmm, aren't they the Fireball's lvl2/3 sprites?

I thought so too; as it turns out, the Fireball uses the same sprites as the Snake…

 

NPC Create:
push init slot (0x200 entity slots, starts checking from # pushed.)
push Parent ; This is to push [ebp+8] in ASM to relate entities to one another, with +A8
push Direction
push yvel
push xvel
push y
push x
push num
call 46efd0

Can someone tell me what it means for push init slot, parent, and the num at the end?

parent is literally the parent entity
like fuzz cores for those little cuties
and num is npc's id
number
in other words which entity gets spawned
and i don't think i ever played around with the init slot so no comments on that

It's alright I got it figured out.

 

How do I make the Miza boss die like normal?

 

How do I make the Miza boss die like normal?

You mean misery?

 

Yeah, but I've changed my mind, and instead want to make the transformed Sue npc killable, so they can run a script on death.

 

But... you can kill her.

killable, so they can run a script on death.

 

But... you can kill her.

The npc wont' run the script, because they never actually "die", rather they become a different npc/ state after they get to a certain health amount. For Sue, I believe it's 500.

 

How do you lower the damage done by spike tiles?
