CSCA Dungeon Tools: Arrow accuracy and Bomb range

[Tw0Face]

I'm currently messing around with CSCA Dungeon Tools for RM Vx Ace just for fun. I've created moving enemies to hit with the Arrow Tool, but sometimes the Arrow simply passes through the enemies. I think that's because of the collision detection mentioned in the script. It seems to use Event coordinates.

Spoiler: Collision

def get_arrow_success_coords(event)
    x = event.x
    y = event.y
    d = event.direction
    case d
    when 2; y += ARROW_DIST
    when 4; x -= ARROW_DIST
    when 6; x += ARROW_DIST
    when 8; y -= ARROW_DIST
    end
    @csca_success_x = x
    @csca_success_y = y
  end

  def csca_finish_move_route
    @csca_dt_done_moving = true
  end
 
  def csca_arrow_finish
    csca_get_event
    if @csca_event.x == @csca_success_x && @csca_event.y == @csca_success_y
      csca_clear_event
    else
      csca_check_collision(@csca_event)
    end
  end

I tried to exchange event.x for screen.x and event.y for screen.y to use screen coordinates for the Arrow Event, but that doesn't work like I thought. How can I change that, so that the result is more accurate? Also, how can I set the bomb up to have a certain range (for example 4 fields)?

The event that is designed to receive the arrow has a comment ARROW_ACTIVATE.
This sets the event self switch A to on.
How well did you read the instructions?

bomb blows up, activating the next self switch of
events underneath it, as well as directly above/below, and to the right/left.
The self switches are only turned on if BOMB_ACTIVATE is in their event page in
a comment command.

The bomb is designed to only activate the spots next to where you set the bomb.
To change this would require an addon if it can be done.

I know how to use this script. I set up my Events exactly like this and it works fine. It's just that the Arrows misses sometimes even though it should hit the Event. It works fine with static Events, but with moving Events the collision detection seems to be a bit wonky and inaccurate. I think it would be more accurate if it were possible to solve this with screen coordinates. But I'm not quite sure.

That's what I'm asking for. A range would make the bomb a lot more useful.

Uh, hello here!

I have only skimmed over the script, so I might still be wrong with the following:


Arrows seem to work on ordinary move routes, so they naturally use map coordinates to determine whether they collide with an obstacle (and skip the rest of their movement). The code above only calculate the target coordinates of the arrow, which are then used to determine whether the arrow was blocked by a target somewhere on the way (in the third method, the arrow event is cleared if it reached its destination, otherwise a collision check is started).

In addition to using map coordinates, skipping a move command also takes one frame each, so depending on your ARROW_DIST your target events may also have a time window to escape a collision. For example, at ARROW_DIST = 8 it should be impossible to hit a target from point blank range that is passing by at normal speed.

A more precise collision detection would probably have to be added on top of the current movement system, though at the moment I'm not sure what this would mean for the other projectile types the script offers.


The targets for the bomb are determined in the do_bomb_effect method. As Roninator2 already stated, right now this method should check the position of the bomb itself and the 4 adjacent tiles.


Can't offer actual code as of right now unfortunately.

Sixth Script works and is more robust. Leaving mine for burial ritual.

That code... uhh...
I suppose you followed CSCA's original code (pretty rigid, if I remember right)?

I did not test this at all, but I would do it this way instead:

Spoiler

module CSCA_DUNGEON_TOOLS # Don't touch this.
  # Value 1 - infinity
  BOMB_DISTANCE = 5 # how many squares away from bomb rounded into a circle
end

class Game_Map
 
  include CSCA_DUNGEON_TOOLS
 
  def do_bomb_effect(bomb)
    xx = bomb.x
    yy = bomb.y
    cords = [] # Co-ordinates to check
    evs = []   # Events in range
    rdist = CSCA_DUNGEON_TOOLS::BOMB_DISTANCE + 1
    rdist.times do |xi|
      rdist.times do |yi|
        [-1,1].each do |xm|
          [-1,1].each do |ym|
            next if xi + yi > CSCA_DUNGEON_TOOLS::BOMB_DISTANCE
            ex = xx + xi * xm
            ey = yy + yi * ym
            cords << [ex,ey]
          end
        end
      end
    end
    cords.uniq!
    cords.each do |cord|
      next unless valid?(*cord) # Skip out of map cords
      eid = event_id_xy(*cord)
      next if evs.include?(eid) # Skip already activated events
      evs << eid
      get_bomb_explode_event(eid)
      csca_check_comment(@csca_bomb_explode_event, 5, eid)
    end
  end
  
  def csca_check_comment(event, tool, bombvar = 0)
    return unless event
    for i in 0...event.list.size
      case tool
      when 1
        if event.list[i].code == 108 && event.list[i].parameters == ["ARROW_ACTIVATE"]
          Audio.se_play("Audio/SE/" + ARROW_HIT_SOUND1, 80, 100) if ARROW_SOUND2
          turn_on_next_ss(@csca_event_id)
        else
          Audio.se_play("Audio/SE/" + ARROW_HIT_SOUND2, 80, 100) if ARROW_SOUND3
        end
      when 2
        if event.list[i].code == 108 && event.list[i].parameters == ["BOOMERANG_ACTIVATE"] && !pickup?
          turn_on_next_ss(@csca_event_id)
          @pickedup = true
        end
      when 3
        if event.list[i].code == 108 && event.list[i].parameters == ["HOOKSHOT_ENABLED"]
          csca_hookshot_success($game_player)
          return
        else
          hookshot_move_back(@csca_event)
        end
      when 4
        if event.list[i].code == 108 && event.list[i].parameters == ["RESET_EXEMPT"]
          return false
        else
          return true
        end
      when 5
        if event.list[i].code == 108 && event.list[i].parameters == ["BOMB_ACTIVATE"]
          turn_on_next_ss(bombvar)
        end
      end
    end
  end
 
end

Much more elegant, I guess.

You can also make different distance for different bomb types by getting the distance from an event comment instead, for example, in case you need multiple bomb types during the game. Assuming that the bomb argument is an event, of course, I didn't check that either.

I did not test this

Gives an error

And yes I just used the same script layout. Don't know enough yet to attempt what you did.

 

[Roninator2]

created moving enemies to hit with the Arrow Tool,

I just tested this, and the only issue I had was if the enemy was on the highest move setting. Having the enemy on normal speed but highest frequency worked fine.

 

[Sixth]

Opps, that was a copy/paste left-over. I made that co-ord logic for another project, forgot to change that variable name.
Fixed it.

 

[Tw0Face]

Thank you very much. The Bomb Addon seems to work fine. You guys are great!

Now all I have to do is to find out how to use Arrow and Bomb together. At the moment, I have the Bomb or Arrow equipped automatically when an event is triggered, meaning they're items and I've to collect them from the map to use them. At the moment, it seems that the tools overwrite each other. If I collect a bomb, my arrow is gone. If I collect an arrow, then my previously collected bomb is gone as well. I'm sure that I can stop this behavior somehow.

@ Another Fen:

For example, at ARROW_DIST = 8 it should be impossible to hit a target from point blank range that is passing by at normal speed.

I don't think I understand what you mean by that. Do you mean that I can use the ARROW_DIST to calculate whether an Arrow hits or not?

Greetings,
Tw0Face
