That should link it all together

Link code

Still a few lines of SASKIA script needed, I suppose

Assuming that everything works (which I doubt), the hard work is done, however now I need to link the boss to the map

Decide AI

NOT gonna be easy

Now I gotta setup the the AI so it can decide the Crystal's moves

Elemental Charge for Big Crystal

Still not there yet!

Elements

Not gonna explain, but it's important!

Effect Lose Charge

NOT there yet, though....

The AI can now respond to the kinds of attacks a player does to a boss... Particularly to how this boss works this is important

Unfortunately the challenging part has only JUST begun.... :(

Another step closer!

Terra Charge

Aer Charge

Ignis Charge

Aqua Charge

Only HALF the work is done now.... Well almost, as there are some more things to be done

Richter

Beaufort

Pascal

#124

Fahrenheit

Empty script for the bosses' AI script

It should be noted that the boss will do nothing yet, and even ignore you when you approach it.... This is a special boss, so some special measures are to be taken here....

Big Crystal

Everything up to the boss works

sssiiiiiiiiiiiigh!

Returner error

test again!

Transfer related error

I've expanded the will templates over all playable characters now, although the system will NOT pick that up... yet!

Target error

Let's test!

Random encounters Naked Rocks caves

Bat

Drain effect

Bloodsucker

This is the boss area, but before we get to the boss I'll first get the random encounters done.... That is after I had a little break!

Area 007

Boss

Let's see

I think I fixed a hook spot

Let's see

area 006

Take III

A few more nasty fixes done

Take II

Fixed that

the Hookspots did not work

And the Healing Herb can be obtained

Irrafly works

Let's try

Area 004

Healing Herb

#107

Okay, I think I fixed that now

It will have to do for now, but a bit more fine tuning is definitely required

Fine Tuning

Almost there

Take wieviel?

must be recompiled AGAIN!!!!

Link error between NIL and C#

Again?

Requires me to compile NALA again, though

Fixed the issue cause by this....

DON'T EVER TRY TO BE FAST, JEROEN!

Again!

SIGH!

Recompiling

Done?

And here too

Let's make it

No "Moving" property?

And so we can test all this shit again!

And thanks to NJCR written in C#, allowing me to toss away my Go application, this goes a LOT faster now

which I just did

even though that requires me to rebuild NALA

Best way to go then is to rename the line command.... Easier way to go

Ah.... I get it now... The scenario routine also has a "line" identifier

And run another test!

Let's try that again then

"nil" value for line... This is NOT possible unless the recompilation of NALA went wrong.... AGAIN!

Gotta test that of course

I hope I fixed #106

No matter!

And now it works?

Let's run that script again

But from VisualStudio it succeeds?

That failed from my PowerShell script

And NALA will have to be recompiled... AGAIN!

And so C# and NIL have linked this

Link up code

Added to the Bubble MonoGame engine

I've linked my experimental Bresenham routine to TQMG

I've aliassed this template to Young Irravonia and Shanda... This is the easiest way to make sure they have no personal will, but won't crash the game in the process....

Character will

Added tag TEMPLATE

Well that's a concern for later!

I hope I can now also properly try to find out why #106 is still an issue, and if worst comes to worst, I may have to do some very idiotic drastic measures..... I hope I don't have to, though....

All is cool now... Or so it seems!

Should work now, but hey, ya never know!

Take III

NOT gonna explain this any further sorry!

Aha! Just a mistag of the block area

But the hookspot does NOT

Works

Take II

Mistagged hook spot

Let's see!

Will it work?

Linked to this room

Area 004

Yup! Yup! Yup!

Let's see now!

I hope

So NOW it's linked....

ZA_Enter link forgotten

Let's see!

Link back to the shore side

It all works....

I can test a few things already though, so let's go!

Link to entering scenario

the link back isn't there yet!

Link from outside to inside

A SASKIA script created, which I expect to remain empty forever....

Area 003

And due to the old system and new system being a bit incompatible here, this may save me a lot of work later!

Confirmed As far as I can tell everything works now

Lists not updated properly in the process

I've enhanced my scenario editor with a tag mover... I fear I may need this some more, so it's pretty important that this will work properly....

Safety backup as data CAN get lost during this process

All is cool now!

Take VIII

I still can't get used to the randomizer being random and not rand like in most programming languages.... This is not a NIL issue... NIL has no random support itself and merely uses the Lua routine.... Lua is threfore to blame for this one!

Take VII

Code )] typo

Take VI

forgot "self"

Take V

And I forgot to put in the clouds

I think

Almost there, but not quite

Take IV

Syntax error

Take III

Arena reference

Take II

Virus scanner blocking out tools that may never be blocked in the process

Take I

Wish me luck!

Time for testing

BlockMap Issue on cave entrance

Ouside on Naked Rocks

Random encounters configured for outside

Croc

Croc Bite

Art Croc

A lot of real-life stuff got in my way today

Preparational work for Stach's used file feature

That appears to be working, at least!

Let's see if the treasure chests work accordingly

But that comes later though

Jukebox data generated

Written a quick generator for the Jukebox data.....

Items placed in treasure chests on the map

Mistress

Upgraded most of my installed software.... Man.... I had a lot of outdated stuff

Update

And I hope that is the last take

Take XVI

Ref error lateron

I guess I voided whatever impossibility caused that crash

Take XV

Let's try this, as I am really through my options now

whatever

Take XIV

more debug lines added

and yet it still happens..... ANd of all the error messages the one displayed is the least of the possibilities

Take XIII

Whatever it is, it's impossible to crash

?

Take XI

Undo dummie on Rondomo fight, as I think must creepy stuff must have been taken of now

SASKIA syntax error

Take XI

Scenario referrence

more scyndi walk cycles

That does the trick it seems, but not everything is alright yet!

Take X - Only one way to find out!

Does this get me rid of that?

The error's back?

Take IX

Scenario tag

And without any possible explanation stuff suddenly decides to work! (it had to since it wasn't broken in the first place, but why this happened in the first place, is beyond me, and let's hope this error remains absent as the bug was non-existent).

Take VIII
