A lot of dc questions

[nwfb1658]

Please answer the following questions as much as you can!!

1.How to decide the x and y of the object?Based on the character centerx?

2.The kind of opoint must be 1?

3.If I let other character use Julian big ball,what y should I use?Because Julian are taller?

4.If I want the character lose 500mp after a move,should i use mp: 0500?

The following is quoted from l_skill(DLA oid of DRLF2) id: 904
I wonder why the author use id: 904 again and again in l_skill.dat
It is already the file!?

And why some pic are 400 and negative sign for next: -138?
What is it?

1.How to decide the x and y of the object?Based on the character centerx?

Jup.
As well, the pictures position is based of this.

2.The kind of opoint must be 1?

Yes, usually it's a 1.
However, if you want to summon a weapon the char is holding (aka Freeze Sword), you use opoint 2.

3.If I let other character use Julian big ball,what y should I use?Because Julian are taller?

Just try and then change the opoint coordinates accordingly. Most likely yes, you will need to change it.

4.If I want the character lose 500mp after a move,should i use mp: 0500?

mp: 500 will work as well ^^

Check the data.txt. There should be a file mentioned under id 904.
(If there isn't and it's still loading, it was my something HEX-hardcoded)

And why some pic are 400 and negative sign for next: -138?
What is it?

If you specify a pic higher then your actual pics (in this example the highest pic would be 100), you will get an invisible ball. State: 3005 deletes the shadow, making the object completely invisible (Note: It's still there and AI does know that. Players just can't see it. Not to confuse with Rudolphs "true" invisibility).
I'm using this often, if i need multiple opoints for a move, like creating many meteors in a row. The "controller" spawning the meteor is usually invisible.

A negative next will cause the object to turn around while going to the next frame.


There ya go ^^

1.How to decide the x and y of the object?Based on the character centerx?

the most easiest way as i did it with my chars Angel Adam ..Emmet...is that u open the sprite that u want to decide its x and y ( open it with paint ) and zoom to the frame u want and choose the SELECT tool and start from the corner of the frame..and cordinates will show up on the bottom '' INFORMATION BAR '' u will find Y x X
:P
