NPC Device Boss Battle update - more attacks added.
18This one took a lot more debugging than usual - mostly due to saving devices with the wrong channel number. But the NPC now has multiple attack patterns which are chosen at random:
1 - Spawn zombies.
2 - summon explosives - these can destroy columns of rocks.
3 - damaging winds. These use the damage field device, but the significant part here is that you can shelter behind rocks if present, but once destroyed you will take damage in the same position. I’m sure that there are more efficient ways to do this.
Right now this is using a lot of channels. Either I’m looking at a boss battle map, or I’m going to have to make it more efficient.
And on a personal note: get vaccinated… but if you get your booster and flu jabs at the same time, then prepare to lose both your arms for a day or two!
