[2.50.2] Bizarre, Instant Death

2 replies · 2,827 views · Started 27 July 2016

2.50.2, starting a clean game on a solid combo instantly kills Link, but continuing on a solid combo, does not. This affects ffcs with solid combos as data. Not sure about regular screen combos.

Edit: No, I thought that was the cause, but apparently, it isn't. What the flidd is going on with this quest file?
The starting screen was made on map 2, then copy/paste'd to map 1. The ffc were copy/paste'd there too.

I cannot track down a cause for the death. It only happens in a fresh game, and I removed all the scripts. None of them affected Link->HP in any event, and I recompiled with a blank buffer. There are no damage combos, no solidity, and moving the ffc away from Link didn't fix it. This is truly bizarre.

Oh, wow. I don't know how that happened. I set init HP to 24 hearts. Must have been a keyboard issue and I didn't notice.

Good enough, and sorry for the trouble.
