Ice Climbers in SRB2 (WIP)

For the past month or so, I've been working on modding the ice climbers into srb2.
I currently don't have any sprites for the characters yet, but I do have some 3D models I made in blender

I also have a demo version of this mod if you're interested



This is what adhd hyperfixations lead to




Add this into your models.dat file to use the models:
popo ICIES/POPO.md3 3.8 0.0
nana ICIES/NANA.md3 3.8 0.0

Recommended settings for models:
Frame Interpolation - Sometimes/Off
Ambient Lighting - On










I plan to add some sort of duo ability in the future (Squall Hammer, Belay)
but right now I can't figure out how to add it in with Lua

I also want to find a way to use Nana's AI in multiplayer modes

I completely agree.

I'm definitely looking forward to this! (i just hope nana's double jump gets a hammer animation, so the abilities are inverted between the both)

Ngl I might do that, thanks for the idea

Honestly, I am legitimately impressed by this, regarding the technical side of things!

Landing on the ground if you use this in the air instantly ends the move

Spoiler: Nana AI

Spoiler: Desync

Using popo's hammer smash you can trigger a desync, allowing you to control both climbers simultaneously.
As long as popo isn't on the ground or hurt when any of nana's moves end, you can desync for pretty much as long as you want.

Also, nana locks onto any nearby enemies nearby if she spots them.

You can even jump bosses with this!
Look at poor eggman

When either climber gets hurt, nana will get angry and attack the nearest enemy with her jump (doesn't work on bosses)
(the code for this is lowkey a little wonky, but it still works usually)

She also attempts to collects rings dropped by popo if no enemies are detected (very useful in bossfights)

Ball knowledge

UPDATE: added Squall Hammer as a duo ability.
when nana is close enough to popo and both climbers aren't hurt, press custom1 to activate it.

Also made nana automatically latch onto popo when he uses airblizz, and she's close enough.

It's a reward for keeping them together, only catch is that you have to spam custom 1 and/or jump to get max height.

I am considering nerfing it a bit tho cuz I don't want them to be too op.
