Chrono Engine ABS Mode: How do I keep projectiles from going through the walls?

[Veggiebad]

I know this may be a foolish question to ask, but I want to know if there's a way to keep projectiles from going straight through walls and hitting enemies from the other side. I really don't know how I would implement this other than creating so many indestructible events that could block projectiles. Any help?

just tick the through off from your skill event in tool map
note that it will stuck on the wall until it erase itself
I still can't find good solution to fix it

Will ticking "Through" off make the arrows get stuck on water or something?

on every thing that player can't pass
and better than ask... just try it...

tried it and the projectile won't even move. Even the enemy projectiles are stuck.

Although I don't know how ABS works it should still be checking if movement succeeds, you can script call

$gameMap.event(this._eventId)._movementSuccess;

to check, if false then it bumped into something if it's not through.

Another thing you could do is

$gameMap.event(this._eventId).regionId();

then use specific regions to block things, so say region 50 check

$gameMap.event(this._eventId).regionId() === 50

If your walls are region 50 and it's true then it's in that region.

Oh? I thought about applying the passability to region, but I don't know how to apply it to events. do I just post this code on each projectile event and code the passability to switch off when it goes to a specific region ID?

I tried doing this and I got this error.

Well I don't know how you set up your events, but if they are parallel you can just make it a conditional script call with that code and if it's true then erase the event as it hit a wall region, can keep it through.

These projectile events are not parallel, but they mainly use the chronoengine script.

Ok I looked at it real quick and made a quick "patch".

var _mog_toolSys_gevent_updateSelfMovement = Game_Event.prototype.updateSelfMovement;
Game_Event.prototype.updateSelfMovement = function() {
    if (this.regionId() === 1) this.erase();
    if (this.needStopSelfMovement()) {return};
    _mog_toolSys_gevent_updateSelfMovement.call(this);   
};

replace that in the code with that and change regionId number to whatever, no idea if there's any problem but testing the arrow shooting it disappeared, also makes the sword disappear, but you're swinging at a wall I guess, no idea if it stops the damage.

Fixed! Not only did the bullet disappear, but the enemy doesn't get damaged on the other side!

Here's a fix incase you want events inside said regions to not be erased and only tools

if (this._tool.enabled && this.regionId() === 1) this.erase();

Will do! thank you!
