My enemies refuse to die =x

[Rayne]

If I start a new project, they can die fine, so it must be something wrong with my game.

If I delete all my scripts, they still won't die. The enemies aren't immortal, and the damage reading says 40-odd on something with 6hp; I keep attacking but its health doesn't go down. Using a CBS with an enemy health bar, when I dealt 17 damage it went almost to the bottom (1hp I assume) then attacking wouldn't hurt it any further. Skills don't work, and it won't work if I try any other weapons. Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this?

Send me the project file and I will see what I can do. :

It might be corrupted data or something like that. Have you tried killing your enemies without the CBS?

If that doesn't work, make a new project and transfer all your data and graphics in it. If that doesn't work as well, it might be that you played in something in the default battle scripts.

Also, if you changed the first state to be anything other than what it is (KO), that'll happen.

Or maybe there tired of being killed over and over again just to be killed again! every time you press playtest all the enemies are like 'not this again! Every time! Were never the main characters! I know what we'll do, lets just not die!' 'but Steve! We have to die! Its in our programming!' 'Y'know what Jerry?! I don't care about our programming! I'm protesting!'

Yeah... that's probably what happened...

=O Wow thanks Gumbo! I offered them coffee breaks and a slight pay increase and they're back to work =D

Seriously though, thanks to Unka Josh for the solution. I categorized my states under things like status effects and stat boosts, so Death was number 4 in the list. Thanks a lot =]

 

[gumbo]

Are you sure it was that? Could of been the coffee breaks, or maybe you deleted the 'frustration state' that could of done it...

Hey, no problem. Just passing on what I've learned here.
