Solved NPC Spawn enemy sequance.

[kdo]

Hi guys, I need to make a NPC spawn a sequence of enemies as normally done in the level file, this should happen when the player hits the npc. Does anyone have any idea how I can do this? Has anyone done anything like this before?

 

[Bloodbane]

can't find function 'spawnscreen'

I'm surprised to read that function name. I can't recall if I ever use it before .

Alright, I'll make simple demo with Bondo and the gang in it

[Couple hours later]

Here you go:

BanDemo

MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

www.mediafire.com

I used Template module and added Bondo + some stuffs to show how it works.
Go to training room and hit Bondo to trigger the summons.

 

[Toranks]

If log says "cant find function XXXXXX" you need to add "XXXXX" function to the animationscript declared on the Seg.txt entity. Spawnscreen in this case.

 

[kdo]

Bloodbane your demo works perfect, even in an old engine version. Btw, i couldnt make the bando script works in my mod. I think there is a script conflict.
The npc that use your script is using another script to spawn an entity .

animationscript data/scripts/enemy.c
animationscript data/scripts/script.c



I think the conflict is here:

Im just tying to make bondo works in my mod, but after hit the char just follow1 is played, after kill all enemy its dont play follow2 and others follow animations.

 

[kdo]

I have changed the @spawn function for spawnframe and it works, but the follows are not working, it stops after follow1.

 

[Bloodbane]

Hmmm... do you have other enemies than hunters being active in the level?
Enemy counter is very strict so one invincible enemy could prevent script in Bondo's FOLLOWs to work properly.

 

[kdo]

I removed all enemys in the stage, but after follow 1 of the bandos script thr level ends. I dont know wgats wrong, i made a copy of Bando file and just changed the frame and doesnt work.

I removed all enemys in the stage, but after follow 1 of the bandos script thr level ends.

Ow, so that's the case . I've tested Bondo in endless level in which level won't end despite absence of enemies .

That means, you'd need to decide how the level (where Seg is) would work .
1. Is it going to be endless level in which player exits the level by touching exit entity (or other mean)?
OR
2. is it going to be regular level in which player must defeat last enemy as usual?

For #1, you need to set type 1 in the level and spawn invisible and indestructible obstacle to prevent the level from ending on its own.
For #2, you need to control enemy spawns to ensure there are no other enemies before Seg spawns enemy.
