*bump* Give damage to individual enemy

Hello! Have been trying all day to make this work but still can�t fix it.

On the layout I have the player and three enemys (orcs) that I want to recieve damage individually. Experimented with families and UID after recieving an example capx from someone here at forum. I�ll post my capx so you can see what I have so far:

game

use arrow keys to move press C to cast spells (and X just plays a attack with staff animation), hold sh*t while moving to walk.

       edit:       LOL spelled "shift" wrong

I plan to add more kinds of enemies if this can be solved.

Thx!

Edit:

Still haven�t been able to solve this one. Tried to do the same thing in GM8.1 with some GML and was done in 5 minutes since every instance of an object get its own creation code, but I DON�T want to use GM8.1 because C2 is so much better in so many ways!! There has to be a sollution to this! :)

So if there�s anyone here can take a look at the posted capx (you need to have licensed C2) and help me out I would be extremely grateful!game

First, what is the use of the orc_mask ?

Second, shouldn't it be easier to name your animation "running_0" "running_45" "running_90" etc and just make one call like Set animation to "running_"&self.DIR ?

Third we'll see after you answered these question, but what you wana do is pretty doable

the orc_mask is (and this goes for player_mask also) so he can walk up to the upmost wall and still be visible.

Edit: and also be half visible when walking behind a wall.

The original collisionbox has been altered to interact in the correct way with sidewalls, haven?t found another way to achieve this. as for the naming of the animations I never knew that you could use part of the name and add &self.DIR.

Ok I think I understand, you use the player_mask sprite so the feet only collides with walls, the player_collision is in fact a hitbox, and then the player is just the visual.

And you do the same for orcs.

That makes sens and I would probably do the same.

However, your capx is already too complex for me to make any changes. I prefer starting from scratch and show you the how to with it.

You'll probably understand better and be able to implement it in your own capx.

ok sure :) I wonder where I went wrong though.. feels like I painted myself into a corner LoL :)

orcKilling.capx

really basic no animation just dumb sprites. (:

Ok thx so much! I�ll start working on it now :)
