[DECORATE] Hurting a player touching a monster.

Is there anyway to have a monster damage the player if he touches it? Kinda like the Duke3d bosses. I need this to give my Mega Cyberdemon a form of defense if the player gets really close to him.

Who'd be stupid enough to get close to a friggen cyberdemon anyway?

Strife's spectres can do it so you may try to inherit from one of them. But don't use SKIP_SUPER to clear all properties. Redefine everything yourself.

I don't use DECORATE very often so I may need a sample...

jallaman - CSonicGo was the one to discover you could chainsaw the big guy to death... the mega rockets sail right over his head.

I find the practice of touching monsters disgusting. I commend the idea to make doing hurt the player.

What's worse is placing a start point right behind a cyberdemons ass. (Hell Revealed Map 18, don't stare at Titan, I know it's you.)

I was just looking thru the sprites today and I noticed... the guys at id gave the CD a very pronunced rectum...

Perhaps you can give him a very quick melee attack that's like one frame long or something (you could even use a walking frame to make it completely unnoticeable).

Or, since it's a cyberdemon which is immune to splash, make it have explosion damage which will "explode" when it's walking.

Okay, could you post a sample code please.

Post by **TheDarkArchon** » Fri Jan 28, 2005 7:08 am

Code: Select all

}
...properties (Include EXPLOSIONDAMAGE and EXPLOSIONRADIUS)...
States
{
See:
CYBR A 3 A_Hoof
CYBR A 0 A_Explode
CYBR ABBC 3 A_Chase
CYBR C 0 A_Explode
CYBR C 3 A_Chase
CYBR D 3 A_Metal
CYBR D 3 A_Chase
Goto See
....Rest of states....
}
}

Everytime A_Explode is reached, the cyberdemon will cause radius damage to anything. (Except those with the NORADIUSDMG flag near it, which will include the Cyberdemon)

I SEE... I should try that out after work tomorrow.
