Adding Super Armor?

[AkumaTh]

I wanted to add super armor to a character so it can be a much more challenging fight (like Juggernaut or the Hulk). Sadly, all I know about coding is changing strenght, defense and size... Is there a tutorial or a tip to make super armor?

[That Mugen Guy]

try ripping the super armor code from a person with super armor and paste it to the person u want

[AkumaTh]

While that does sound easy, I tried it to no avail. Is there a specific way to do that?

what file do you add this to? The cns or the cmd? I tried adding this to M.M.R.'s Griffon and it didn't work

CNS. You Put the Statedef 9000 Anywhere.
and the -2 and -3 states go under the - statedefs.

Is the Var(46) necessary to make it work, or can other Variables work assuming that number isn't already taken?

[Cyanide]

Yeah, that's not going to work at all. That's just the basic stuff. Forcing the player into another state and then allowing him back where he was. Super armour works because you have edited EVERY state to work with it. Each state needs to work with super armour or you get weird effects.

For example. You want to play a sound when time = 0. Normally you would do

[State Playsnd]
type = playsnd
trigger1 = time = 0
value = 1,2

And the sound would play. However with super armour you need to account for the fact that you could potentially leave the state and come back to it, maybe more than once. So you need to detect that you've been hit and it becomes

[State Playsnd]
type = playsnd
trigger1 = prevstateno != 9000
trigger1 = time = 0
value = 1,2

And repeat that for EVERYTHING. Sounds, helpers, explods, even changeanims. Super armour needs to be built into the character. Copying in some simple stuff isn't enough. And even then every state with super armour also requires this. Remove the anim = bit under statedef, it gets set via changeanim

[State Changeanim]
type = changeanim
trigger1 = time = 0 && prevstateno != 9000
value = whatever anim it is
elem = animelemno(0)

Even that's imperfect as long frame times can glitch it. No magic button for this sorry.
