Helper trouble..


sesdef

Question

Alright guys, (time for another absurd question)

I've been having this problem while trying to make a projectile helper.

The projectile helper's animation loops full of CLSN1 hitboxes (not a single CLSN1default hitbox due to testing purposes), and I made 1 Hitdef in the statedef of the helper just for the purpose of being able to land a SINGLE hit on the opponent. However, when I make the statedef(in which i make the helper), then make the helper in the statedef(as i mentioned right before, the one in which the helper is in), and point the helper to the projectile statedef, the projectile hits the opponent, spark appears, sound is heard, but the opponent completely ignroes it, and no HP is lost either- almost like the Hitdef is being ignored.

I tried to use other characters' helpers as a reference (the way they make their projectiles), but I had no luck getting the Hitdef to land a hit. Can you guys help me?

Code:

movetype= A

Okay, I'm a huge dumbass.

The problem I had was actually:

;ground.type = None

Since it was set to None, of course the opponent wouldn't bother getting hit..

Well, with that said, I'm off to do more things.. and hopefully stop making pointless threads. ,_,

Thanks for the help!

god this laptop sucks

your hitdef does not have a hitflag

try adding this line in your hitdef.

hitflag = MAF

I put it there, but it still didn't land a hit..

I'm not sure that this is the problem(is it?), I copy-pasted the hitdef of my air attacks (which do hit)..

(and i've been watching your tutorial videos)
