[SUPPORT] Advanced Turn Based Tile Toolkit

[Monokkel]

Hey all, as noted in my last post, time is in extremely short supply for me these days, for one more week. I’ll give you what answers I can give off the top of my head. If you need more in-depth answers please prompt me again from May 9th and onwards.

Hola , he vuelto. I was a bit absent because my brain kept repeating “you havent done any art in a while so get yo as$ back to Zbrush!”, but now that the itch is over I can return to studying the toolkit. So I rewatched the Turn Manager video (timestamps in the comments), and made some notes and questions. Anyone feel free to address them if you have any comments or remarks, I would super appreciate it; specially the questions, since those are obviously my biggest doubts I came upon when watching the vid.

My plan would be to do the same with the Ability system videos next before returning to full-on experimenting with the ATBTT again. Good luck with your thesis too ! Best of luck to you.

Thanks for the new writeup, ! This will undoubtedly be useful for other people, and certainly for me personally. It helps me see how clear I make my points and what I should go into in future videos. I do not have time to read through now, but I’ll return next week.

Dear ,
Good day! :rolleyes:

I have a quick question! It just blew my head off, but I was able to get a result!
However, in order to make it clear I want to clarify how best way to add a unit to an already running game?

Our hero will get into the transport and be removed from the map (there is no problem with this), and then get out and continue the game.

I did as shown in the screenshot, that works, but there is a feeling that there is a simpler way. What I did with the PlayerID is not quite right?

Main Problematics:

1. Owner // When spawning a character, I had to tie it to the owner // PlayerController
2. From point one, the following problem appears. BPML_ATBTT // OwnsActor // PlayerController / PlayerState / PlayerID != ActorID**, **blocks spawn tiles when animate action starts.

Apparently, you need to bind the created unit to the owner and assign the owner ID for management, but I did not understand how to do it correctly.

There is no problem with the initiative and the grid! Everything is good here!)

Thank you in advance!!!
Best wishes, Kon.

P.S. I apologize for my English again

Are you using the very newest version? One of the things I added was automatic assignment of ID. It is in the construction script and looks like this:

And don’t worry about your English. It is good and you explain yourself well. English isn’t my native tongue either

Hey ,

Thanks again for everything you do!

I took your advice on putting InteractWithObjects in the SimulateMove function so I can have a character take damage when running across tiles. But, it seems the unit takes all the damage at the end. Is there anyway I can make the unit lose damage as its walking across the tiles?

Here’s a video to show you what its doing:

Thanks!

This has to do with the action system. Even though damage is applied at the correct time according to game logic, when it comes to animations it will appear after movement as it is the next action in the queue. Making actions play well within other actions is one of the things that is really quite cumbersome in the current version of the toolkit. One way to do this is to bind the damage display effect to when the unit enters the appropriate tile during movement animation (when it call the OnUnitEnter event dispatcher), but it is a bit awkward to do. However, if you have a bit of patience, the very next thing I will be adding to the toolkit is an improved solution for animating actions within other actions.

Hi , I remember you were working on a “climb ladder” feature. Now I’ve got the new version from marketplace, how to play with the new “climb” animation?

@FuTou

In order to avoid misunderstanding, one time you posted a gif, where the mannequin “climb” with hands, instead of slide up. This is what I’m talking about.

The climb animation stuff can be found in the Experimental map in maps/Experimental. Be warned that it is not very polished yet, but it should provide a good starting point.
