Problems with grab forward animation, random error.

yairvondoom · May 28, 2025

Hi
I need your help, I have tried several ways to find the error and I have not been able to find it, sorry I am new to this, I don't know what to do anymore, I would appreciate your help.

Let me explain. I'm getting errors like: Vitality drops to 100% when executing the THROW command, and sometimes it drops to 15%. Then, when I pass the next stage, it happens again, dropping the enemy's Vitality to 100%, or the OpenBoard window simply closes. (Excuse my English.)

statement:

anim grabforward

fastattack 1
loop 0
offset 77 145
attackone 0
delay 38

@cmd slamstart
@cmd position 0 3 3 1 -1

Hello @yairvondoom and welcome to the forum, at a guess I would say your @cmd throw is asking for something that the enemy doesn't have like fall/attack type for example, could you post your throw script?

From your post, looks like there are two unrelated issues but I take it that you're referring GRABFORWARD as THROW animation.

Anyways, I don't recommend declaring grab functions on same frame. I suggest doing it like this:

C:

anim grabforward
offset 77 145
delay 38
@cmd slamstart
@cmd position 0 3 3 1 -1
frame data/chars/hulk/grab_throw_01.gif
delay 9
@cmd position 0 -31 25 1 -1
data/chars/hulk/grab_throw_02.gif
@cmd position 1 49 1 0 1
data/chars/hulk/grab_throw_03.gif
@cmd depost 0
@cmd throw 10 3 2.5 2.5 0 1
data/chars/hulk/grab_throw_04.gif
data/chars/hulk/grab_throw_05.gif
@cmd clearL

Yeah, the issue comes from using clearL on the same frame of throw, is it instantly nullifies it.
Its always better to use it on the next frame.

Hola @yairvondoom y bienvenido al foro, supongo que tu lanzamiento @cmd está pidiendo algo que el enemigo no tiene, como tipo de caída/ataque, por ejemplo, ¿podrías publicar tu script de lanzamiento?

¡Gracias por responder!

Los scripts que estoy usando son:

datos de animationscript/scripts/grabscript.c

datos de scripts de teclas/scripts/ironkey.c

datos de animationscript/scripts/lib001.c

datos de ondrawscript/scripts/shadowon.c

¿Creo que podrían ser los scripts que estoy usando?

Saludos, comunidad.

Sí, el problema surge al usar clearL en el mismo cuadro del lanzamiento , ya que lo anula instantáneamente.
Siempre es mejor usarlo en el siguiente cuadro.

The scripts I'm using are:

animationscript data/scripts/grabscript.c

keyscript data/scripts/ironkey.c

animationscript data/scripts/lib001.c

ondrawscript data/scripts/shadowon.c

I think it could be the scripts I'm using?

The same problem persists,
when you go to the next level, when you throw the enemy it automatically subtracts 100% of its HP.

@cmd throw

C:

void throw(int Damage, int Type, int x, int y, int z, int Face){
    void self = getlocalvar("self");
    void target = getlocalvar("Target" + self);
    int SDir = getentityproperty(target,"direction");
    int MDir;
    if(Face==0){
        MDir = SDir;
    }if(Face==1){
        if(SDir==0){
            MDir = 1;
        }else { MDir = 0;}
    }if(target==NULL()){
        target = getentityproperty(self, "grabbing");
        setlocalvar("Target" + self, target);
    }if(target!=NULL()){
        int dir = getentityproperty(target,"direction");
        if(dir==0){
            x = -x;
        }if(Type==1){
            damageentity(target, self, 0, 1, openborconstant("ATK_NORMAL"));
        }if(Type==2){
            damageentity(target, self, 0, 1, openborconstant("ATK_NORMAL7"));
        }if(Type==3){
            damageentity(target, self, 0, 1, openborconstant("ATK_NORMAL9"));
        }
        changeentityproperty(target, "attacking", 1);
        changeentityproperty(target, "damage_on_landing", Damage);
        changeentityproperty(target, "projectile", 1);
        changeentityproperty(target, "direction", MDir);
        tossentity(target, y, x, z);
    }

Your throw code should look similar to this and can you post the OpenBorLog.txt when the OpenBor window closes.

It doesn't seem to be generating an error.

Thank you for sending the log, you can use attachment feature next time.
Can you show us your grabscript.c and lib001.c?

Thank you very much for your attention.

I've attached the scripts I use for my character.

Greetings beautiful community.

Thanks, now I could see the files myself.

I noticed these lines in hulk.txt:

Code:

animationscript data/scripts/grabscript.c
keyscript  data/scripts/ironkey.c

animationscript  data/scripts/lib001.c
ondrawscript     data/scripts/shadowon.c

Having two animationscript is wrong, you have to choose one or the other. I suggest removing the first line (grabscript.c).
