I can't believe Core beat me to uploading an Urchin script. Now you have two to choose from! Pick whichever you like more.
A download link can be found here:

Demo:

1:20
Installation instructions can be found in the
handbook or in my
thread.
Modifications and adaptations of the code is permitted. If you use this particular code as a basis for an enhanced version of these NPCs, please give credit.
Movement guided by:
Straight redirectors
Diagonal redirectors
Terminus (Sets speed to 0)
Toggle (Inverts speed)
NPC codes:
waittime: Time the urchin waits at each redirector. Defaults to 65 for the purple urchin and 0 for the pink urchin.

Just want to point out that the Urchins ignore redirectors/togglers/terminuses (except the initial one) when placed underwater. It's fixed by setting nowaterphysics to true though.

Wow. One of my all time favorite npcs. This is a great addition to the roster. Thanks everyone for keeping this alive.

Yeah I have some bugs with the urchins too (with redirectors, especially underwater). Otherwise, thank you for your big job !

No, it's all fixed. I reinstalled the pack and I set nowaterphysics to true too so now it's ok ^^

Odd...
Code: Select all
==> ...\Mario\SMBX2 Beta 4\data/scripts/base/engine/require.lua:146: Error: worlds/test/npc-840.lua:44: '}' expected (to close '{' at line 40) near '['
=============
stack traceback:
...\Mario\SMBX2 Beta 4\data/scripts/base/engine/require.lua:146: in function 'customNpcRequire'

I tried fixing this but I can't seem to find any unclosed brackets in the lua file.
Sorry, I did forget to mention that I did change the NPC ID to a free slot. I also replaced the instances of 802 with 840 to reflect the changes, though I dunno why changing that ID would make the game complain about a missing bracket.

That is pretty odd. I presume you renamed the file to npc-840 yourself? Just to double-check, make sure the registerHarmTypes call looks exactly like this:
Code: Select all
npcManager.registerHarmTypes(npcID,
{
HARM_TYPE_NPC,
HARM_TYPE_PROJECTILE_USED,
HARM_TYPE_HELD,
HARM_TYPE_LAVA,
},
{
[HARM_TYPE_NPC]=801,
[HARM_TYPE_PROJECTILE_USED]=801,
[HARM_TYPE_HELD]=801,
[HARM_TYPE_LAVA]={id=13, xoffset=0.5, xoffsetBack = 0, yoffset=1, yoffsetBack = 1.5},
}
);
Please post the file to hastebin.com and link it here if the error remains unsolved, so I can take a look if anything's different as well.

Okay, this is really strange. After being severely frustrated, I just re-installed the NPC completely, dumped my world and put in a backup I have from before the installation. Did the exact same procedure and it seems to work fine now. I am guessing I may have misclicked and added something.
Quick during typing edit: I did a compare of the broken LUA file with the new one I JUST NOW modded that is working and it seems I accidentially deleted a comma after one of the ID numbers around line 43. Due to, I am guessing, how LUA works, the error complaining about line 44 is what threw me off and made me ignore the ACTUAL error in line 43. Oops. Anyway, they work great now, thank you!

Glad to hear it works now! Yeah, the line numbers are where the compiler notices something is wrong. Often that means the surrounding lines are relevant, too.

What is the background used in the 2nd one? Asking for a friend.

It's a mix of many backgrounds, which are:
SMB3 Clouds
SMB1 Stars
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky
Layer of glowing effect

How do you mix them into one? I'm quite new to LunaLua.

It's not really a lunalua thing, specifically, it's more of a functionality that SMBX2 has added, you can learn more about it here:
