[XP] Blizz-ABS

[Makasu]

I want to use them though! So thats kind of a problem.

[Blizzard]

Then you obviously need to make the sprites for them. xD

[Makasu]

But for the bullets? Because it happens whenever I shoot a bullet! I'm not even aiming at anything and it still happens!

[Blizzard]

Yes, that's not supposed to happen. o.o; I'll fix it and put up a new version tomorrow.

EDIT: There it is, v2.14.

[Makasu]

Yay Blizz!!!

Now I have one more question concerning arrows. How do I make them have damage? Because I set the attack on the weapon to something but it doesn't seem to do any damage! :x

I don't know where I'd be without you.

Wait now there's new error!

script "Blizz Abs pt 3" line 1551: NoMethodError occured
undefined method 'dead?' for nil:NilClass

[Blizzard]

Change the line to:

@blend_type = (valid? && !battler.dead? ? 0 : 1)

Stupid typo. -_-

EDIT: Damage? Set up the weapon attack power to be high enough to make any damage obviously. -_- Blizz-ABS uses the default battle algorithms.

[Makasu]

Thats what it was but now bullets don't show up! I just suck at this thing. Hahahaha.

[Blizzard]

Sorry, but I have no idea what the problem is.

[Makasu]

Does it work normally for you? Maybe it has something to do with my scripts or something? I'll take them all out and see what happens then. thanks nonetheless Blizz you're the best!

Lol I know what the problem was! I forgot to load up my settings in the config.exe. XD

EDIT: But is there a way to make it where say the bullets aren't able to be picked back up again? Because whenever I shoot them they fly out but then land on the ground as the icon! Its not an error its just my stupidity at work again.

EDIT: Whoops its in the manual!

[Blizzard]

If you don't want them to drop, find line 3632-3638 in part 3:

          case @type
          when BlizzABS::REMShotItem, BlizzABS::REMNormalItem,
               BlizzABS::REMBreakItem
            $BlizzABS.drop_event([$data_items[@id]], @real_x + 64, @real_y + 64)
          when BlizzABS::REMShotWeapon
            $BlizzABS.drop_event([$data_weapons[@id]], @real_x + 64, @real_y + 64)
          end

Just delete it. I was going to add it as optional feature somewhere later. But for now this should do it.

What if you only needed it on certain weapons?

I think I found a bug, when I have a shooting type skill it works fine, fires the projective, does what it's supposed to, but when I set it as a charging skill as well it won't shoot, instead I get that circle thingy like I was using a direct skill (I think it's direct skills that use the circle target thing anyway)

[Blizzard]

Yes, a direct/homing skill will trigger a targeting circle after charging. What's so odd about that? -_- Good that I actually found this bug.

[Hellfire Dragon]

Nothings odd about I said that it comes up when I use a shooting type skill that is set to freeze on charge

[Blizzard]

You should have been more clear. xD I'll take a look at it. Fixing a bug with charging skills pretty much messed up all the others and not just one it seems...

[Satoh]

is there a way to add new weapon types...? (without creating a massive ABS overhaul)

I ask because there are certain special items that I want to have a unique animation for, but I don't want to turn it into a weapon type that I haven't used...

Right now I'm using the flail as my unused weapon type... but I won't be able to use that if I need to add flails...

Did any of that make sense?

[Makasu]

Does bouncing damage work? Because I don't seem to get anything to show up! Enemies just fade away.

[Satoh]

it worked when I messed with it last... O.o;

[Makasu]

Well do you possibly know how to get it to work? Because I have it set to true but nothing at all.

EDIT: Also is there a way to be able to talk to like an enemy or an object? Because the only way the message will show up is if I kill said person. Just curious and just wondering.

EDIT 2: Also the explosions setup doesn't appear to be working either. :? I'm not to sure why this is but nothing seems to work for me.  well things do I guess I'm just not setting it up correctly. But I'm using the confing.exe and keep hitting wall after wall.

In case you don't know what I'm talking about if I set an item to be a homing or beam and set an explosion to the victim it doesn't damage the affected radius as it only hits one enemy as well as just acts like a normal "bullet/arrow" item.

EDIT 3: There appears to be a glitch/bug. IF I use a healing skill on myself the sprite stays a weird green color. Nothing to serious I guess. I just tested it and it works the same way on a skill that targets and enemy as well. So if I highlight an enemy but don't want to target them they'll stay green even after the skill has been cast!

[Kagutsuchi]

A really annoying issue here..

Spoiler: ShowHide

This happens randomly, when I try to switch actor. (With "O") It triggers seemingly randomly in battle.

[Satoh]

I know that error ALL too well.... Blizz had it fixed when I was using it last... and now it resurfaces...

It only happens after you use a skill that has been hotkeyed, I believe. It happened to me with Heal.

BTW nice Tsukihime sig.
