It's set to not working? Who tested it? 

 

Does it work for NPC's?

Any issues with projectiles? 

Can you skip through two diagonally placed blocks? 

 

 

Once bug free and working, this will be a very popular addition! Really nice work!

[minisoft]

Would it be possible to add diagonal animations too?

[Aiden9]

Nice work, hope you make it full work with projectile.

Actually it does work, but I am having struggle with the patch. It should be up soon.

I think I will work on this next, but in fact I don't know yet how to set a player animation.

For the animation, i'm sure you don't have to modify the source, it ill work without change

Where it is interesting is that if we find out how to modify the animation, we could use a spritesheet with more actions than just walking

Client side, i'm thinking the animation is define here : (sorry for bad english) 

 

Intersect.client / Entities / Entity : Line 868

                if (Options.AnimatedSprites.Contains(sprite.ToLower()))
                {
                    srcRectangle = new FloatRect(
                        AnimationFrame * (int) Texture.GetWidth() / 8, d * (int) Texture.GetHeight() / 4,
                        (int) Texture.GetWidth() / 8, (int) Texture.GetHeight() / 4
                    );
                }

 

Because more line further you also have the frame for attacking, for walk and then for the paperdoll

[Shenmue]

I see, I will check it out then. Thanks

Actually the NPC animation is not working right so I am working on that. Plus I will try to make the NPC move in diagonal too. And you cannot hit a NPC in a diagonal tile.

Yes actually you can.

I've not tested yet, I will improve NPC first.

 

If anyone wants to improve my code feel free.

Some errors

Projectile does not follow the direction of the character

Players teleporting, perhaps at events too.

 

Speed System,
Because he is adding the vertical and horizontal speed, making the player even faster.

Monsters Lags when moving

Thanks for the bugs report Celtos,

I am currently working on NPC lags. After NPC I will focus on projectiles. It doesn't look to me like the player is going faster.

If possible, making the monsters walk in that system too, will get more fluid ...
Let me know, your initiative is very good

If you will go down that route adding diagonal movement to events would be a good shout.

I think I will test that feature when I will be done with NPC. I was also planning to expand the spritesheet, so I don't know if I will do this soon haha.

Passive NPC move with 8 directions and there is no more lags with them. Only issue I've found: when they have a target they move with only 4 directions (I am still trying to change that).

 

There is no more projectile issues. However, projectiles are only 4 directions even if moving diagonal. I don't think I will change it, but if someone is interested about that feature maybe I will add it later.

 

I've updated my post, but you can download the most recent patch here.

This would make the system complete, but I would focus on getting the current system fully working and bug free.

 

Nice work!

Diagonal NPC movements work any time now. However they behave strangely when player is in diagonal of them. Should be fixed when I will configure diagonal attack.
