[CutTheMonitors!]

Hello everyone!

Long time SE user here - big fan!

I'm just wondering is there a way to get standard guards to respawn after they've been killed?

My thinking is that having extra guards swarming into a level would spice things up nicely!

I did a bit of action block tweaking with the Frigate hostages and got them to respawn - but only once.


Also, one last query in the same area.

How can I get a group of guards to spawn and head straight for Bond at the beginning of a level?
Similar to the pests who chase you around Surface 2, Depot or Statue.

Many thanks.

You should set the ID for the guard you want to respawn in the 04 block, as well as their gun and hat in the block too. Then you should create a 10 block to check if that Guard ID doesn't exist in the level anymore, start a cycle counter for how ever many frames/seconds you want, and then spawn a guard at a preset then throw the block back up to the top label.

For example

04 block

Code:

Set Guard ID Label 00     Spawn Gun Label 01     Spawn Hat Label 02     Guard Logic

10 block

Code:

Label00     Is guard ID not existing?     Is guard ID dead/dying?     Goto First 00 Label01     Start Cycle Counter Label02     Is Cycle Counter Greater than 10 seconds?     Goto First 02 Label03    Spawn Guard At Preset with 04 Block    Goto First 00

Thanks for the reply, HackBond!

I've tried putting these to work firstly on a barebones level with one guard present and then on Frigate. Neither worked and both levels refused to boot.

Here's what I came up with:





Thanks again!

You are missing 03 sleep functions in anything that loops to check something (else the game will crash cause you've locked up execution) but apart from that it looks fine. Your spawn guard action will also hit the end of block, which will restart execution at the top and hit the 00 at the top anyway, so thats fine too.

Many of your goto labels are not filled in (just 00). They need to match where they are going to.

EDIT I rewrote this

Yeah your label IDs for the jumps don't match what is below. You need the colours/IDs to match to what they are going to below.
