[Tutorial] How to make a never-ending lava wave.

[Fuyu]

Have you ever wished to make a lava wave level like the ones on NSMB games? Well now you'll learn how to make one following this step-by-step tutorial.

• 1) Whatever section you want there to be a lava wave, make the section wrap so when the lava waves reaches the beginning of the section, instead of going away, it appears and the end of the section and it will keep going that way without disappearing.
  2) Make a layer to which the lava will be attached (It may have whatever name of your choice, but better call it with a name you'll easily remember. E.G: "LavaWave").
  3) Make an event that will make the layer to which the lava is attached, in our case "LavaWave", and make it so right when the level begins it starts moving to whatever direction you want at a constant speed (or if you want the lava's speed to variate, on which case you would need some experience with events, make multiple events that simulate it).

And that's it, doing all three steps here you'll successfully make a lava wave level that fully percent simulates NSMB games lava wave levels.

So blocks too are affected by level wrap? Never know that.

Actually, scratch this, I actually thought it would work instead of trying it myself, but it appears level wrap doesn't affect blocks. So anyway, any Mod or Admin that reads this please lock.

Wrapping Sections only works with players and NPCs, not with any objects that moves of their own because they can just move along the stage even outside the Boundary of your Level...

There's a way though. It involves making NPCs that are essentially lava (invisible lava attached) moving.

But the lava would eventually leave the level boundary.

The trick is to not have level wrap, and have NPC generators. The invisible lava wouldn't attach (that was a typo), the waves themselves wouldn't instakill, but they would hurt the player.

lunadll anyone?

is it possible with luna?

For this, it seems way easier to just use normal SMBX functions.

Why is this thread still open? I requested it to be locked.
