Hi

I don't particularly know a lot about coding or script calls, but I feel pretty stupid that this isn't working. I am trying to make the screen shake when an enemy is hit, as to add some "game feel" to the attack that is going to be used 99% of the game (I would like to also make it make a sound as well, but one thing at a time, ya know?). I have the script call to make the screen shake - $gameScreen.startShake(9, 9, 100); - (I put it at those numbers just to be sure that I would notice it), but it doesn't do anything. I have tried placing it in the <absOnDamage> portion of notes for the attack skill; I have tried placing it in it's own skill and having the original skill call that new one when it deals damage; I have tried putting it under the enemy itself in the database. None of things have made it work. Is this even possible to do?

Thanks for any insight you can provide

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
