Events Fire Projectiles (Using Events Only!)

じ☆ve冰风

PURPOSE:
To have an event auto-fire projectiles that can interact with player when touched - show animation, deplete HP, start battle, or any number of other things. This can be used with my tutorial on player projectiles on map (determined by leader or other) to have shoot outs on the map between player and enemies. Bare in mind, the hit detection is not spot-on, this is more for triggering battles or short mini-games than as an evented battle engine.

HOW IT WORKS (Including Code):
1) Set up an event with an "enemy" graphic. Name it "Enemy1." This two page event will have a blank page with just graphic, second page will be set to run if switch "EnergyOn" is on. This is so that the enemy isn't walking around shooting fireballs during cutscenes. Make sure to turn the switch on at the end of any cutscene and to turn if off at the start of one. Set this event to run on player touch and you can set it to hurt the player or initiate battle or whatever (or you can also leave this blank if you don't want anything to happen when it collides with the player). Next, set it's movement route to custom and then set the custom movement route to "move towards player." I find this works better at pathfinding and actually coming after the player than if it's set to "approach."

2) Next, make a projectile event. Name it "EnemyProjectile" and place it in the corner of your map somewhere. The graphic can be whatever you'd like the projectile to be. This event is a parallel event, one page, with the condition that switch "EnemyProjectile" is on. The contents are:

                Code:        
◆Wait：20 frames ◆Control Switches：#0011 EnemyProjectile = OFF


3) Finally, make another parallel event. This won't have a graphic and will also be shoved in the corner somewhere. You will need to make some variables for this event: Enemy_Dir, Enemy_X, Enemy_Y, Char_X, Char_Y, EnemyProjectile_X and EnemyProjectile_Y.  Here's the contents:
