Related to Lara's health: is there a way to detect when Lara's Health bar is visible? With my plan above, I appear to be able to increase Lara's Max HP. But now how do I modify the actual bar? I can create a custom bar that is wider and shows her health, but I'm not sure when to show it. I would also need to make a second custom bar to show poison...

Once there was a debate about it, but as far as I can remember nobody has found out yet the good condition to detect Lara's health bar presence.
You may run a looooooong test to find every little situation for this, and then making some reeeeeeeally complex scripting for this - but, practically, it is naturally nonsense.
If you have a custom health bar, then perhaps the best if it is permanently on the screen, exactly covering the original bar position - or a bigger area, naturally. Then you can adjust another (even a custom poison) bar position to this.

Anyway, if you need more bar look customization (eg. pulsing color) then my Plugin3 has some options for that.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Ironically, in my last game, I kept the Healthbar forced because I like seeing it. Players were really confused, though

*update* I also figured out a way to adjust the Medipacks. Using FLEP, I reduced the amount they heal by 50% (Small down to 250, Large to 500) and added a GT to heal more when they are used. Then once the Max HP is increased, I disable those GTs and it LOOKS like the Medis still only heal 250 and 500 health points respectively. So with the Max HP increased, it takes 2 Large Medis to fully heal

hey guys, it is me again, lol

how can I make an animating make Lara shrug? Like when an enemy bumps into her?

ty in advance!

if this shrug is a normal animation you can define a global trigger that checks
a condition trigger group if lara is touching that animating slot and in the action trigger group you can perform that shrug animation number.

Sadly, it doesn't work as expected. When Lara is hanging on a cliff the condition that checks if Lara is touching a moveable does not trigger.

What am I doing wrong? Should I check if the moveable collides with Lara? But I think it will result in the same thing.

What I want to do is if Lara is hanging a wall and a box hits her, she falls off the cliff.

This is the script I used to implement this:

WIP: Wolf brings Lara down when he jumps on her

Code:

GlobalTrigger=	2, IGNORE, GT_COLLIDE_SLOT, DOG, IGNORE, 2, IGNORE

TriggerGroup=	2, >
	TGROUP_USE_FOUND_ITEM_INDEX + >
	$9000, 219, $0915, >			; [IF]		Creature. Current animation of <#>creature is (9)animation (0-31) (C21)
	TGROUP_USE_TRIGGER_ITEM_INDEX + >
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 700, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <700>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 701, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <701>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 702, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <702>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 703, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <703>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 704, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <704>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 705, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <705>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 706, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <706>animation
	TGROUP_NOT + $8000, 707, $001E, >	; [IF NOT]	C30: Lara. (Animation) Lara is performing <707>animation
	$8000, 286, $10, >			; [IF]		C16: Multiple condition of <286>MultEnvCondition script command in (AND)way
	$2000, 170, 700, >			;			F170: Lara. (Animation) Force <700>Animation for Lara, set new StateId
	$2000, 89, $0013			;			F89: Lara. (Health) Damage Lara, decreasing life by <20>percentage of full vitality

It's still barebones for my goal but it should be enough for yours with a just little rework.
I didn't want to trigger the animation during a specific set, but you can replace them with checks that Lara *is* playing some specific animations instead (or you can check her StateID or even her "action" instead, to avoid having to type them all).

TGROUP_USE_FOUND_ITEM_INDEX is used to make sure the next condition operates on the object that called this GlobalTrigger, ie. the dog in my case. The goal was to only make her stumble when he's jumping.
I don't think you could use this constant if you were using a condition trigger instead of a GT_ condition.

Mind that i don't remember exactly what TGROUP_USE_TRIGGER_ITEM_INDEX is for, as i don't have the reference at hand (just copied this from my script online, from phone).

Richard_trle · 03-06-22, 05:40

It is not working

Code:

GlobalTrigger=	3, IGNORE, GT_COLLIDE_SLOT, ANIMATING4, 1002, 1001, IGNORE

TriggerGroup= 1002, $8000,18,$0005, TGROUP_OR+$8000,0,$0005
TriggerGroup= 1001, $2000,63,$0000

am I doing something wrong?

LoreRaider · 03-06-22, 09:40

Try tgroup_else instead of tgroup_or

Richard_trle · 03-06-22, 16:26

no help

It seems that no collision happens and it makes sense, if collision would affect her, she would drop even not requiring this global trigger

Is there a way to check if the animating is in a position and lara is also in a position facing north and east while hanging? I think that is the best approach
