Gaulish Gaming Banquet: editor

For creation of new objects, maybe it would be smart to put default values or "Prefabs" (Different types of same object, like corkscrew or the small lift) into encyclopedia as well?

adrientd

That's what the Hook export (xechook file) was kind of meant for. So you export several hooks from several levels, keep them in a folder, and you import them to any level you want.

pegperegogaucho

Hmm yeah, but maybe it could be useful to store an entry like name: "Corkscrew" file: "abc.XECHOOK" in a json, so when a "create hook" button is added, you can select it from the list without needing to export anything... :FrogThinking:

pegperegogaucho

Of course the editor would have to store those files somewhere, or create them at first launch, during the patching.

adrientd

Or just name the file Corkscrew.XECHOOK, Lift-Small.XECHOOK, Lift-Big.XECHOOK, etc.

adrientd

I think maybe we could upload an organized archive of preexported XECHOOK files so that they can imported without having to search in every level.

pegperegogaucho

We would have to address the collision problem first though

I love that the `docs` folder in adrien's editor repo is just 3 screenshots :Obelul:

The "D" in "TD" stands for "Developer", not "Documenter" :)

@adrientd These arrays + the byte at the end is a struct, like this: ```c++ struct BossPhase { float ShakeAmount; float MachineShakeAmount; float Unk0; float MachineSoundSpeed; float RollerSpinSpeed; float RollerExtendTime; float RollerDisplacement; float Unk1; float TimeBeforeSmoke; float MachineSpeed; float BombAltitude; float FireRate; float Unk2; float Unk3; float BurstRate; float Unk4; float Unk5; float Unk6; float Unk7; uint8_t NumBombs; void reflectMembers(MemberListener& r); }; ```

Right now it's not easy to add property descriptions to them like this :Pauselix:

adrientd

Oh yeah so there are 4 boss phases.

adrientd

Once I'm done with "properties+events from superclasses" I will change that.

adrientd

Will be done soon

pegperegogaucho

There are, surprisingly, 5!

pegperegogaucho

Do you know what the last one is used for?

adrientd

No

pegperegogaucho

Each time a roller is destroyed, it will change to the next phase. If the very last roller is destroyed it actually switches to the next, the fifth, phase too, but this is more of a "dummy" since it won't attack anymore and will only use the shake properties.

pegperegogaucho

I believe there is also an instance in UXXL where it actually reduces the shake amount of the last phase and you can clearly see it there
