Command input problem

[Odb718]

I want to make a command that the player holds down for at least a third of a second, then can continue holding down, then press all 3 kicks.

I've tried a number of ways but cant figure out how to get it to go.

I've tried making
[Command]
name = "Move"
command = ~20$D, a+b+c       <<<<You have to hold, let go, then press the kicks
[Command]
name = "Move"
command = ~20/$D, a+b+c       <<<<breaks it


[Command]
name = "MoveA1"
command = /$D       
[Command]
name = "MoveA2"
command = ~20$D       
[Command]
name = "MoveB"
command =  a+b+c     

MoveA1 + MoveB will activate. MoveA2 + MoveB doesnt work.

I basically want this to work like Guile's Flash Kick, but without having to let go of down. MoveA1+MoveB is almost what I want, but it doesnt have a minimum time length.

Well, you can use a var on state -2...

Code Select Expand


[State -2, HoldDown Var]
Type = VarAdd
Trigger1 = Command = "holddown"
V = 0
Value = 1

[State -2, HoldDown Var Reset]
Type = VarSet
Trigger1 = Command != "holddown"
V = 0
Value = 0

Now you can use the var(0) together with the "a+b+c" command as trigger.

Code Select Expand


Trigger1 = Var(0) >= 20
Trigger1 = Command = "a+b+c

I don't know if this is the best way to do it, or if it is possible to do what you want only using commands, but this should work ^^

Do you NEED it to be done through commands? Why not make it easier on yourself?
You want to press a+b+c while holding down after 20 ticks?

triggerall=stateno=11&&time>=20
triggerall=ifelse(stateno=11&&time>=20&&command="holddown",command="a"&&command="b"&&command="c",command="holddown")

If you're not planning on being able to use this move on a combo, Noctis answer is better than mine, but if you want it to combo with other moves, than Noctis won't work.

[Noctis]

He wants it in a combo?

type=varadd
trigger1=command="holddown"
var(0)=1

type=varset
trigger1=movetype=H
trigger2=var(0)>=20&&command="MoveB"
trigger3=command!="holddown"
var(0)=0

triggerall=var(0)>=20
triggerall=ifelse(var(0)>=20&&command="holddown",command="MoveB",command="holddown")

yeah I'd like to be able to jump in, start holding down while airborne, then go into the move when I hit the ground.
I'm just trying to come up with a system for my Mai718's Flying Squire move. Nothing seems to fit. I'll have to try the variable method.
I find it kinda dumb Mugen wouldnt have this built in. Something, like ~20/D+a+b+c, should be possible.

The second piece of coding I posted should work just fine. I agree it's rather annoying though that a lot of simple things need to be done through vars, but that's how it is. On the plus side, just about anything can be done through vars.
