sounds like u want a bunch of aliens 2 keep appearing and hitting the enemy?

u could make the alien a [mcode]helper[/mcode] (or a [mcode]projectile[/mcode], i guess) then give them a [mcode]hitdef[/mcode], ect. until they suit ur needs... an just use a repeating trigger so that many appear

edit: added mcode o.0

well, u could make this like a normal super... create a state 4 it in your .cns that calls your helpers, then your helpers' state (the aliens)... an dont 4get 2 code the .cmd part of this move also...
4 an intro into move creation check out narutorial#3 (the "how to code a punch" part) in the "tips, tricks, tutorials" section... it should help

ok i c wat ur saying (no i dont know hu ur tlkn about, sry :' ( )

if thats the case, it would b better if u put the helper creator under -2 (-2 states are check'd once per tick even if ur in a custom state... -3 is the same, but not check'd if your in a custom state)

so read up on helpers in the docs, and put a "type = helper" sctrl under the -2 statedef. then create your helpers' actual state as normal (with a positive statedef #)

edit: o but make sure u only make helpers during that actual fighting, lol or it might look a lil weird with ur aliens hitting ur enemy during their intro or death or w/e... [mcode]roundstate[/mcode] is what ull need

Urgh, you mangled english there.

Ok you essentially need about 4 states.

Your character is going to be invisible. In the stand state remove control and just have him turn randomly. posset him to the center of the screen.

Make him create helpers randomly at a positive 160,0 position. Also set a variable for how many helpers you want to be allowed out.

Roundstate = 2 is one of the triggers you need. The helpers will turn at time = 0 if p2dist X< 0 then you just make them run at the opponent. Give them a hitoverride which puts them in a death state. This should use parentvaradd to lower the parents variable. Consider the var as the parent's life. When it's <= 0 have the parent die.

In M.U.G.E.N there is no magic button

#9 September 20, 2007, 09:47:34 am

make the helpers b created off screen with the pos part of the helper(u can do 0,200 if u want it over the top of the screen... or u can put it off the side of the screen)... also add this 2 the trigger of that helper [mcode](numhelper(xx) = 0)[/mcode] where xx is the helper id...
and in the alien's actual state, put a [mcode]velset[/mcode] so that it moves towards the enemy, and a [mcode]hitdef[/mcode] of course
also, put a [mcode]hitoverride[/mcode] in that state so that, when your alien gets hit u can send it to a "death state" where u give it a death anim and a [mcode]destroyself[/mcode]

eh his english iz ok... no1's perfect... dare i say, even urs could use work? o.0

More effort on the vowels please. This isn't a fucking cellphone.

Don't have to know. He's making a bonus game. Things run in from either side of the screen and attack you. You kill them. Thats all.

Here are your states sir

Stand

Helper run

Helper attack

Helper die.

Thats all you really need, Technically run and attack can be the same state if you time it right but splitting them up is probably easier.

ok thanks for your help again Cyanide

and yeah i want it like a mini game

so it would look like this

[State ???]<---- what number should i use or dont matter?
type = Helper
trigger1 = RoundState = 2
trigger1 = NumHelper(1005) = 0
trigger1 = life*5 <= p2life
trigger1 = life < p2life
name = "Helper5"
id = 1005
pos = 40,-270
postype = left
stateno = 9999

is it like this ?? sry for all the questions lol trying to figure it out but i am reading the doc that are posted to

and here is the rox howard char i am talkin about so you have a better idea what i am talkin about if you want to see him in action for your self

Re: code help :)

#13 September 22, 2007, 01:50:13 am

depends which way ur doing this... 4 positive states, or 1 - and 2 positive states... if positive then it doesnt matter, if negative... then -2
and if u want 6 on screen then ur trigger would b [mcode]numhelper(1005) < 6[/mcode]

More effort on the vowels please. This isn't a fucking cellphone.

n ty, y add letters when they arent needed... u understood wat i said right? ok then...

edit: o since u have [mcode]trigger1 = life*5 <= p2life[/mcode] u dont need [mcode]trigger1 = life < p2life[/mcode]

There will come a time when you type total gibberish, noone will understand it and a flame war will spark. You have time to type your post. There is no character limit. Use full words. I'm less bothered about punctuation but making what you write, especially when you're trying to HELP someone, understandable, is important.

English isn't everone's first language.

trigger1 = NumHelper(1005) = 0

Consider using a time mod trigger time%# = 0 instead of numhelper. Not much of a challenge when you've only got 1 showing up at once. Unless you plan to have the helper fight as AI. You'd be better off spawning them quickly, say 1 per 30 ticks.

i guess it always takes an exaggerated example of sumthing 2 prove a point, eh Cy? but i do read over wat i post (most of the time) 2 make sure it iz legible, even for those hu arent native english speakers... but ill try using complete words more often... cuz i do c ur point, i guess

he says he wants 6 helpers on screen at a time ... so if he did do the time mod thing, he'd still need a restrictor

Yep it does. And thank you for at least saying you'll try.

He should probably change his trigger to < 6 then rather than = 0.
