[Open Assets] Better Sharing

[Lamibe]

Hesitant to put life-sharing because it don't let margin to intermediate players even if helping less good ones ? If it's the case BetterSharing is for you.

This script add basic sharing functions and a revamped “avoid gameover” behavior allowing to manually give lives to others players and keep a few ones when someone got a game over.

Variables :

• • minlives : Set the number of lives needed to automatically give one.

Commands :

• • givelives <player> <amount> : Give lives to a player.

Spoiler: Changelog

v1.1 :

- Play the sfx when get lives
- Fixed no respawn when get life while dead
​

Ironically you need to disable vanilla life-sharing or the new behavior will be ineffective.

This is pretty neat, time to share this with releases.

Oh dang, this would've been nice to have when doing multiplayer with friends who have yet to play SRB2 before xp

I'll be sure to keep this in my addons folder whenever I host another game next time.

An update got released. Fix a glitch and added the vanilla sharing sound

In all honesty, something that would make this better would be a menu if Custom 2 is pressed or something like that, a menu similar to one from Super Mario World. Regardless, this will make for a great tool for servers!

Didn't thinked of that and with my spriting skill it could not look that nice. If I found time and don't forget about this I will do my best to implement that.
Just a problem about custom keys is that they are limited and can cause conflict with other mods but that a SRB2 issue and multiply custom keys will not be better.

Agree the way it was done is not the best especially now with 2.2.1 hooks. Will try.
