Killed Projectiles

[maxman]

How can I make the projectiles kill each other just like SF2 style? I don't want them to pass by.

Simply put a body box on them.

Yeah. The bbox is not a 2D bbox according to utunnels. I'm using the last two values which are z1 and z2. I know they are like zmin and zmax in levels.txt, but I'm so lost what values I would put for those z because I use negative and positive values for back and front. Like I tried here for example:

bbox 36 0 39 49 -2 -1 #bbox x y width height z1 z2

bbox 36 0 39 49 -2 3

bbox 36 0 39 49 0 4

The problem when I use bbox with the z inputs, is that they pass by without hitting each other.

I do use followcond 2 and followanim to attack an entity but not projectile. I also prepared script variable names like target/opponent's model (target, "model") if I want the projectile to hit player (possible accident), specific enemy, or another projectile. I want to specify which enemy or target to hit. (I might prepared follow2 anim for another follow-up if it's scripted.)

IIRC if you put both z1 and z2 then z1 has to be negative and z2 positive. Also, 2~4 are too low, you should at least put values around 6~7 if you use z1 and z2, and a value around 11~13 if you put a single z value. I think the reference z value in OpenBOR is 12.

 

[maxman]

What do you mean by 6-7 and/or 11-13? I tried these but it doesn't work for killing each other.

bbox 36 0 39 49 12

bbox 36 0 39 49 -12 12

bbox 36 0 39 49 6 7

bbox 36 0 39 49 11 13

I know 2-4 are low but dunno what to do with the values. I can say 2 characters can use the same projectiles to attack.

 

[Piccolo]

I meant as absolute values.

If you use two z values, those are good :

bbox 36 0 39 49 -12 12

bbox 36 0 39 49 -6 6

Anyway it is useless to set both z1 and z2 values if they are symetric. z1 and z2 is for creating asymetric box (like a box bigger in front that in back)

They should definitely kill each other if the box is big enough.

 

[rafhot]

if you punch this projectile it will break, but projectile x projectile i dont know why i cant make it to work too

 

[Piccolo]

First it will be destroyable with any other attacks and maybe grabable too

This is easily fixed with a custom type for projectiles. You can also use ondoattack script if you don't want to add a new type.

and second it will only the one destroy the other and never both each other at the same time.

Why is that ? If the follow animation is the same as the death animation, then no matter which one hits first the result will be the same.

I don't think using bbox logic is such a bad idea for this.
