CHS.lua - Custom Health and more! [v1.3]

[Marioman2007]

Important!

Consider using the newer version if you don't need multiplayer compatibility and the air meter:
The newer one has better code as well.

Heyo!

why are you hosting on discord? i am a purveyor of bad ideas and even i wouldnt do that

Spawning a life shroom from a ? block spawns this error.

How is that a bad idea? The only way you wouldn’t be able to download this would be if he deletes the message that has the download link or if discord is down.

There’s no rule of disallowing stuff being hosted over discord and it’s even imo more reliable than certain other hosting sites!

Not to mention there’s a alternative link.

oh, didn't knew that was causing the problem, lol

Fixed, thanks!
also added an Air Mushroom and documentation for adding/setting - health and air!

I really like this script! Well done! I also love how you added starbits and lumas with their own colours.
Really good that we can choose between Galaxy or Odyssey styled life ups.

[AlanLive2020]

Oh cool! I also made one using the mario editor health images (which i havent published) but this is way better

[TheGameyFireBro105]

Could you make it compatible with icantswim.lua? I'm trying to use it for a recreation of Sonic 1 (Genesis) Labryinth Zone.

hmm, I don't see why it shouldn't be compatible...

I don't see the air meter when submerging with icantswim.


(LOOK! I'm now in Metroid Dread! I'm a Rinka!)

(LOOK! I'm now in Metroid Dread! I'm a Rinka!)

Code: Select all

SmgLifeSystem.AirMeterActive = true

in your luna.lua file

[AlanLive2020]

Hey uhhh, just a suggestion, maybe use Game Data so it saves between loading levels?

1) I guess no, it would make some levels a lot harder (1-2 hp) or easier (5-6 hp)
2) oh oof, I'll see what I could do, but later

This is amazing but is there any way to turn off the harm animation. I just want a single frame to be there instead of full animation. I tried that but it still moves up and down.

[AlanLive2020]

Found a workaround to it not working with icantswim.

Replace line 546 with this:

Code: Select all

if player:mem(0x34, FIELD_WORD) > 0 and player:mem(0x06, FIELD_WORD) == 0 or Defines.jumpheight == 40 then

Note that this only works when the icantswim jumpheight is 40. If you change the jump height in the icantswim code, change the number here as well.

[Marioman2007]

Version 1.1 is here!

This version adds support for icantswim.lua
you can turn it on/off by setting SmgLifeSystem.icantswimSupport to true/false

it also fixes a bug with starman invincibility

link is in the main post!

set SmgLifeSystem.SetHurtFrame to false and remove the players' ini files
