Adding hits

[gabe2222]

OK I'm making a combo based game(meaning no projectiles) and I'm trying to make increase the number of hits that a grab can do on an opponent. Can someone help me with this please?

[Cyanide]

You mean increment the combo counter? Using Hitadd is the normal method but generally you have to actually HIT p2 to make it look right.

[gabe2222]

No what I mean is I have a throw that does hits like Street fighter 2. For example in street fighter two there are some throws that go one for 10 to 11 hits if you don't move the dpad at all. I have a char with a throw like this but it only maxes at 4 hits. I'm trying to get it to max at 10 hits.

[Cyanide]

Oh, you want to mash throw?

Command = "a" (or x, whatever) to add additional hitdef hits. Use hitcount < 11 in order to limit the number of times it'll activate.

[gabe2222]

Ok where exactly would I put that line? In the cmd file or the cns file?

[Cyanide]

You've made the throw. Throughout the throw you have hitdefs to give you 4 hits correct? Add another hitdef that deals less damage. Use command = "whatever" and hitcount < 11 as triggers for that hitdef. That will add additional hits every time you press the button in question. I'm giving vague advice here because i have nothing concrete for what you ahve done.

[gabe2222]

Ok I'll try and put it up here to show you. Sorry about that. Here is the throw line

Trigger1 = time <= 25 && (Target(840), Command = "holdfwd" || Target(840), Command = "holdback") && (Target(840), Command = "2 P" || Target(840), Command = "2 K")
Trigger1 = Var(0) := 1 && 0

That cannot possibly be all of it as i see no way of leaving that state.

In addition, that contains some very very complex code and what you're asking for is simple.

[gabe2222]

This isn't my character. I'm just using it. That's also not all of the code. if you want I can post the whole throw up.

[gabe2222]

What I need to know basically is what to do to make the throw last longer than the four hits that it does?

[gabe2222]

Ok I figured out how to prolong it for 12 hits but how do I delete the fall animation? Can someone tell me which is it?
