Making New Combo action

We can edit skills by edit scripts, also change activate conditions of attack motion. it mean 'we can make our own combo attack'
Why don't you make something good combo for fun?

Here is most useful code.

Code:

"0" "AE_ACTIVATE_STATE_CHANGE_CONDITION	#"

Sources what used in this post

Code:

pc_kalok_attack_motion.txt - Sequences are in there.
player_action_state_kalok.txt - States are in there.
action_table_player.txt - Values about cur_action_info
Item_data.txt - SP skill's conditions are here.

I'll use Kalok's Dropkick for sample.

Here is code in pc_kalok_attack_motion.txt

Code:

		"force_frame"	"108"
	}
	"11"	"AE_METAMORPHOSIS	additive_attack"	// 변신 후 추가 공격 가능
}

In original source, we can't try more attack except SpeedyMove, because there isn't codes what make it possible.

So, add these codes in there.

Code:

"20"	"AE_ACTIVATE_STATE_CHANGE_CONDITION	AttackMelee_01"
"20"	"AE_ACTIVATE_STATE_CHANGE_CONDITION	AttackStrong_02"

Eventually, You can use AttackMelee_01 and AttackStrong_02 by 'press normal attack key' and 'smash key'. (also, you can find more specific info in file named player_action_state_#.txt. It means you can edit a lot of conditions, properties, outputs about that .)

Next, I'll show you how can edit attributes(dmg, side effect) of hit

Code:

	"0"	"AE_SET_CUR_ACTION_INFO	battle_strong_attack_warstomp"

You can find info about that in action_table_player.txt. I want to change this attack type to Dark knight's active skill. That's easy. Just change the name, like this.

Code:

"0"	"AE_SET_CUR_ACTION_INFO	dark_knight_2_skill_tentacle"

You can change it any type, even you make special one. Just add your own action_table in your action_table_player.txt file.

Here is video about using new combination attack skill, be made by this method.

Thank you for reading, and sorry about my poor English.

ps. If I use Lann or Fiona's motion, it'll be better, does it?

Do you mean Lann's skill about windmillspeedymove? or whatever, open your file named 'player_action_state_lethita.txt'. There is 'state' to lead 'sequence'

Code:

below "StateChangeConditionDefine" category,

		"SpeedyMove"
		{
			"priority"	"1"
			//"next_state"	"SpeedyMove"
			"command"		"+IN_JUMP/.*(TIME/.*){2,}"
			"required_key_states"	"-IN_ATTACK"	
			"state_options"
			{
				"is_weapon"	"weapon_dualsword"
			}			
		}
		"WindmillSpeedyMove"
		{
			"priority"	"3"
			//"next_state"	"SpeedyMove"
			"command"		"+IN_JUMP/.*(TIME/.*){2,}"
			"required_key_states"	"-IN_ATTACK"			
		}	
		"SlipThroughN"
		{
			"required_skill"	"skill_lethita_slipthrough.1"
			"priority"	"3"						
			"required_move_keys"	"1"	
			"command"		"(TIME/)*+IN_JUMP/"			
		}		
		"SlipThroughS"
		{
			"required_skill"	"skill_lethita_slipthrough.1"
			"priority"	"2"						
			"command"		"(TIME/)*+IN_JUMP/"			
		}	

and below "StateDefine"

		"SpeedyMove"

					//default output -> "state_options" 없이 맨 마지막에 써준다
					"attack_option"	"speedymove"
					"sequence"	"speedymove"
				}
				
				// 마우스 모드 개선안에 따라 옵션 켰을 때 화면 쪽으로 align 하기 위함.
				"auto_target"

						"is_weapon"	"weapon_dualspear"

		}		
		"SlipThroughN"
		{
			"property"
			{
				"is_rotate_transition"	"0"
				"is_rotateable"			"0"
				"is_movable"			"0"
				"stamina_need"
				{
					"load"	"addstamina		$skill_lethita_slipthrough.stamina_usage_increment"										
					"eval"	"14 + addstamina"
				}
			}
			"output"
			{
				"selectweapon"	"weapon_defaultsword"
				"attack"	     	"quaternary"
				"attack_option"	"speedymove"
				"sequence"	"slipthrough_N"

		"SlipThroughS"
		{
			"property"

				"is_rotate_transition"	"0"
				"is_rotateable"			"0"
				"is_movable"			"0"
				"stamina_need"
				{
					"load"	"addstamina		$skill_lethita_slipthrough.stamina_usage_increment"										
					"eval"	"14 + addstamina"
				}
			}
			"output"
			{
				"selectweapon"	"weapon_defaultsword"
				"attack"	     	"quaternary"
				"attack_option"	"speedymove"
				"sequence"	"slipthrough_S"
			}
		}

Can you see this? You have to see carefully about 'condition options'. There 4 states have exactly same command to use skill. 'Evasion skill key("command" "(TIME/)*+IN_JUMP/) But you can use skill just only one in one situation. It is selected by conditions(required skill, priority, key states). In Lann's case, If you equip dualspears, you will use 'windmillspeedymove' when you press evasion skill key. (See its conditional_output - state_option)

Next, you can find 'sequence' in pc_lethita_motion.txt and can edit it.

Effects are loaded by this script.

Code:

"#frame#"	"AE_CL_PLAY_EFFECT	effects/#directory name(player, mosnter)#/#effect name#.efx"

Just find, and use it.
