BETA updated to 1.62:

Changes:

Can set time limit to low gravity
Can set time limit to blitz weapon duration.
Can set amount of ammo to weapons (minimum 180 rockets for rage_miniblitz, 360 for rage_blitz).
Removed two BGM's and replaced with Metallica's One. You're My Angel will continue to be a secondary theme.
Reduced to 1 warning if recompiling subplugin.
Shortened default duration of Kritzkrieg effect to 8 seconds.
Rockets deal more damage to buildings than players.
Weighdown should function properly now. Using Otokiru's weighdown fix.
Health formula bumped to ((130+n)*n)^1.04.
Rage Damage increased to 700.

Only reason why these version numbers rise rather quickly is not because of how many times I released public (stable) updates on him, but rather based on changes I have made / reverted / added since the last public update (as the unseen numbers are development builds to ensure stuff are working correctly, as I'm a novice coder and I test via trial and error)

Ironically I still can't find a theme song bgm that would fit him well :/

You forgot to precache your new theme and take the old ones out

v1.10.x no longer requires precaching the bgm's as it precaches them. Forgot to update the precache section for those using pre v.1.10.x

here's the cfg fix for those using those older versions

Also I don't think the song 'One' suites him :/
Having all 3 songs was awesome

so if v1.10.x automatically precaches the BGM, then for all the configs that has the BGM specified for precache..... does that song get loaded twice?, or is it just a redundancy now to put that in config?

In other words, is there a benefit to going through all the configs and removing where we cache the looping theme music or is there no point in that the second loading of the song doesn't happen anyway

It's redundant. PrecacheSound() is just being called twice, that's all.

So rage_miniblitz + rage_kritzkrieg has merged into rage_miniblitzkrieg, and rage_blitz + rage_blitzkrieg has merged into rage_blitzkrieg for the BETA 1.63 update. His DOT rages are still a WIP which will be available in the future soon.

If recompiling his ability subplugin, you'll find that it will no longer spit out warnings.

If you are using FF2 1.10.x just comment out the sound_precache section, otherwise leave that section intact if version < 1.10.x.

Here are the new args:

Blitzkrieg Rage

Code:

	"ability3"
	{
		"name" "rage_miniblitzkrieg"
		"arg0"	"0"   // -1 = Death Effect, 0 = Rage
		"arg1"	"8.0" // Kritzkrieg Duration
		"arg2"	"180" // Rockets
		"arg3"	"30"  // Gravity Duration
		"plugin_name"	"s93_blitzkrieg"
	}

Mini-Blitzkrieg Rage

Code:

	"ability4"
	{
		"name" "rage_blitzkrieg"
		"arg0"	"-1"	// -1 = Death Effect, 0 = Rage
		"arg1"	"15.0"	// Ubercharge Duration (seconds)
		"arg2"	"20.0"	// Kritzkrieg Duration (seconds)
		"arg3"	"360"	// Rockets
		"arg4"	"25"	// Rampage & Gravity Duration (seconds)
		"plugin_name"	"s93_blitzkrieg"
	}

2 days later....jumped from BETA 1.63 to 1.71 lol.

New arg4 (rage_miniblitzkrieg) and arg5 (rage_blitzkrieg) to toggle whether to use class reaction lines, or use the old generic alert when Blitzkrieg loses a life or rages.

Mini-Blitzkrieg Args

Code:

	"ability3"
	{
		"name" "rage_miniblitzkrieg"
		"arg0"	"0"   // -1 = Death Effect, 0 = Rage
		"arg1"	"8.0" // Kritzkrieg Duration
		"arg2"	"180" // Rockets
		"arg3"	"30"  // Gravity Duration
		"arg4"	"1"   // Class Voice Lines? 0 = Generic Alert, 1 = Class Voice Lines
		"plugin_name"	"s93_blitzkrieg"
	}

Blitzkrieg Args

Code:

	"ability4"
	{
		"name" "rage_blitzkrieg"
		"arg0"	"-1"	// -1 = Death Effect, 0 = Rage
		"arg1"	"15.0"	// Ubercharge Duration (seconds)
		"arg2"	"20.0"	// Kritzkrieg Duration (seconds)
		"arg3"	"360"	// Rockets
		"arg4"	"25"	// Rampage & Gravity Duration (seconds)
		"arg5"	"1"   // Class Voice Lines? 0 = Generic Alert, 1 = Class Voice Lines
		"plugin_name"	"s93_blitzkrieg"
	}

Below is ONLY a provision for a special ability to add a round time limit when Blitzkrieg is the current boss. This is not yet implemented.
When this time would expire, it would force a stalemate (via humiliation).

Code:

	"ability5"
	{
		"name"	"special_blitzkrieg_roundlimit"
		"plugin_name"	"s93_blitzkrieg"
	}

Yet to this day I still don't know what should be his primary BGM.

Open to suggestions though. Don't really want to make the track list no more than 2 songs (compared to my Reimu boss which has 8 tracks) for faster download.

Tracks would be optimized to be download-friendly yet audiophile-friendly.

I'll later release BETA 1.73 soon which should resolve rare instances where the next boss would inherit Blitzkrieg's weapons due to timer not cutting off at round end when he gets defeated or reaches stalemate. Rarely happens but can be reproduced by forcing the boss to lose 1 life and slaying him before the timer switches his weapon back.

Hopefully also introducing a time limit for those that feel that his rounds take too long. It would be disabled by default but could be enabled via an arg with the duration (in seconds)

Also hoping to finally add those weapon difficulty levels too.

(Although the time limit may be an issue with FF2's last player countdown unless there would be a way to cut off the timer so that blitzkrieg's takes over)

I'm starting to wonder if the mixed danmaku-style/melee fighting concept would catch on even though the ability subplugin is still in it's early stages.

May also bring in a a few extra surprises to the plugin.
