thing_setframe&thing_attack?

[Shadelight]

this would be kind of useful for cutscenes. What this would be, is that you could force a thing frame using a script, Defining the sprite frame. Thing_attack would make the thing fire even though it's dormant or whatever. would this be possible?

[Kirby]

Frame thing sounds useful, but might be complicated. As for making a monster fire, I think that it's simply not possible while its dormant. If you want to do what I think you want to, then why not spawn the monster's projectile in front of it?

[Phobus]

Why not just activate it and give it a hate target to attack? Then deactivate at the end or something.

[Graf Zahl]

Why not implement a useful feature instead of having to hack around the limitations? With the new custom state support this can be really useful for cutscenes and other stuff like that.

Yeah, what Graf said .
