Added tag LORE

Alias in code for portrait Kirana under her persona "Kara"

Kirana Boxpic Ok

Kirana Actor

Everything is cool now, and I can start on giving life to the one of the most despicable women I ever created.... Kara Irana aka Kirana

Take I

news and dinner

Karl

Added this to Karl's

Cardinal's robe

Leather Armor

Red dress

Trying to Karl at this point WILL crash the game, though!

Karl's Weapon Stand

Wrecker

Hard Bat

Thief's knife

Whiplash

I did place two barrels which must prevent the player from needlessly entering the NE house... This was already an issue in the original game, but a very annoying one.... This will affect both the populated as the deserted version of town, so no need to make two tests

All NPCs who got to disappear do so accordingly

So that's why one more test in deserted mode

Now except for Kara, all NPCs are present, but Kara won't disappear... in fact she's already off the map as soon as the mission that will spell the disaster starts....

Dog works, and the fact that only Scyndi can understand animal language is picked up too

Cynthia works

Guards worl

Running in the background

Another test

I'm getting tired, mind you!

Code typo

Cynthia and her dog

Juggernaut guards

Almost there.... I only have left Cynthia and her dog, and the guards guarding the Juggernaut room.... Once those two have been taken care of I'll activate the store, and last but not least Kara, the NPC that is actually the key to get further in the game.....

Wesley and Arjen

Yes, they have been named after the Dutch soccer players Arjen Robben en Wesley Sneijder.

Wesley and Arjen have been added to the map (the city guards)

Rosetta article, although it's been scheduled for later

And that concludes Rosetta, or at least as far as Gagolton is concerned as after the disaster in Gagolton Rosetta will move to Independence

Rosetta

Rosetta Again

Illegal group definition

Rosetta

Rosetta

Rosetta

Rosetta Portrait

Rosetta

Rosetta

Rosetta

Sprite Rosetta

All cool now

Again!

A few blockmap issues

Good thing I tested that

Quick test in deserted form

That does not yet mean all NPCs are accounted for, but at least we can work out things more normally

that will make all NPCs actively blocking treasures, so I need to check both the populated town as the deserted

NPC Hans

Ambrosia

Entering and leaving house 3

Retag

NPC John

All cool

Placed one in the city.... In thend you can only obtain it after the city's been deserted

Aquamarine

Almost, but not yet quite

House 2 entry + exit

Arya

That works

Let's go!

I've placed in Xenethor and his wife Fryda... Since Xenethor is the owner of that lab, I can best work this out while I'm still at that place..... so here goes

That works!

So I can test if the scientist will actually kick you out of his basement if you try to enter it

I've for now configured the city to be populated again (I will need an empty town again soon, but now I need the populated version).

Now THAT works

Another test

Link up fix to basement

Let's see if this works

Linked the interior of that house with the city main part

City scenario, but really working that part out is a later concern, but I needed the "get out of my lab" message to be present already

I've worked out the lab, and also created the entrance to the Sugarland bonus dungeon for Game Jolt users, however I will not concern myself with actually creating this dungeon prior to the city being deserted. You cannot enter the place any time sooner anyway

The actual opening of Juggernaut's room and fighting it will of course have to wait until the moment the fight can be unlocked

A few preparations for Juggernaut Anti-Chamber

NOW it works

Take II

But that has been fixed

Leaving does not

Entering wokrs

Start setup works

And let's now put this to the test

I've automated the zones being shown and hidden as the player enters them.... This is vital here, as this, as a former TeddyBear map has no layer support, so I have to do with transporting on the same layer.

ZONE markings

Back to town

FINALLY!

A value Lua returns which spooks up my GoToLayer function

Again!

Some busted blockmap things

Illegal function call

Again!

Case Error

Let's see

That hall leads to the ultimate boss Juggernaut

Some reworkings on the big hall of the Juggernaut basement

QuickLink routine... Will make it easier for me to go from one place to another

Around the emblem stuff's been fixed

A few blockmap and dominance issues

ENOUGH for today... I've seen that the empty town works....

FINALLY!!!!!!

I hope so

Did I fix it?

It's getting beyond me.... really

Okay, again....

Extra line to confirm this

Function value my @ss

One more (I hope only one!)

I'm getting tired

Code typo

Case error (I hate these trival errors... I really should have made NIL case insensitive)

I hope it works now

Let's try to do this differently

Eerr... This is getting strangery by the minute

Wat?

Take III

LUL!

Take II

The Crash does confirm the game does take note of the city being deserted though

Bad linking => Crash

Here goes nothing

The city in populated form appears to work, let's not force it deserted

Let's see now!

Worldmap record properly linked

with a few quick macros I can easily force the town to be empty for testing purposes

Auto remover for NPC which have to be removed has been written

Some more link code written in order to make Tag scanning easier from non Field Flow scripts

File names appear to be in order

The system should now play Oregon by Wicky77 when the city is still populated, and Water Prelude by Kevin McLeod once the city is deserted

Empty mapscript for Gagolton

still a lot to do though

A few base settings for Gagolton have be set up....

Note to self... I've decided to make all NPCs (and barriers) that have to disappear as a result of emptying the city have a tag suffixed with "_DISA" (Short for "disappear")

Gagolton is not a normal city... After all this is the city that will be empty after you defeated the next boss... This requires a very careful approach on matters and not to mention, on the mapscript

Gagolton Map

#131

Take VI

SASKIA Syntax Errors

Achievement fixed for real now?

Take V

Defeating this boss will now unlock the city of Gagolton

Gagolton

It really goes beyond ANY level of stupidity

Boss works, except for one tiny stupid issue

Achievement Mountain King was broken

Take IV

NumVar check for new moves

Take III

Unlabelled Hero fix

Take II

Filename typo

And now to test the boss -- Take I

Linked to Game Jolt

Hall of the Mountain King

Mountain King

Art Mountain King

Yasathar's temple

All is fine there

Script check

Boss Script worked out

Additions for showing heroes for scenario

Scenario looks to be in order

Scenario for Yasathar's temple

At this moment his will force an error

Boss link made

Absolutely terrible but the best I can do... for now

Take VI

Progress

Take V

And a few blockmap issues?

I think I got PART of the problem....

These housekeepings always come at the worst possible moment, eh?

Take IV

Extra debug lines will have to tell me what the fuck is going on here!

This is NOTHING near what it should look like

Take III

And that fixes everything, I hope....

Recompiled

Ah, my fixed Go script (I refuse to call it an application... Go doesn't come near that level) was not written in .exe form

Take II will have to note if that fixes or at least voids what just happened.... But I am really beyond what could cause that...

At least I fixed an illegal group call

I have NO idea at all what is happen now!

Linked the world map to this place

As I realized I forgot something very important

Take Cancelled!

And as soon as that's done I've set the system to immediately start test Take I

That will condemn me to a music rebuild, however that shouldn't take too long

Angevin will once again be the music used here
