[Open Assets] Fang Popgun Modifications 1.2

[clairebun]

This script is a standalone repackaging of the popgun tweaks present in BattleMod (V8.4).

Changes include:

• Fang can target enemy players in competitive gametypes
• Fang can fire popgun while running at any speed or on steep inclines
• Fang can fire popgun whilst in the air (Cannot use shield actives)
• Fang can jump while firing popgun on the ground
• Added larger cork sprites and a visible trail (color-coded in competitive gametypes)
• Cork travel speed reduced (60 -> 48)
• Cork no longer juggles players in their pain or flashing states

Some targeting and firing code has been borrowed or modified from TehRealSalt's simple character rebalancing mod.

AERIAL POPGUN SPRITES :eyes:

 

[Goldenhog]

You can still use the Whirlwind's active by pressing jump after hitting a spring or walking off of a ledge.

 

[Just Silus!]

Oh yeah, Aerial Popgun, I really love this.
I can't stop spamming it.

 

[MrSolipanto]

This mod is awesome! I would suggest maybe making a mod of Tails Swipe with the battle mod sprites.

 

[Simon_T]

Yoshi can use shield abilities by pressing Spin while holding Jump, so Fang also could do that

This is a long overdue update, but Zolton helped patch up a few issues with the current scripts.

Version 1.1
- Fixed Fang being able to turn while firing
- Changed character select description to more accurately reflect abilities
- Resolved a sprite conflict with OLDC Summer 2020 SP pack

 

[Simon_T]

Sometimes Fang tries to turn around when firing on ground while not moving

 

[PencilVoid]

This odd glitch occurs when playing in Strafe mode. It also occurs with the Intangible Camera mod loaded and activated.

 

[clairebun]

Angle issues were due to a lazy oversight on my part. Should be fixed now.

 

[Morphized]

Considering all the individual mods, eventually your suite of 2.2 mods could turn into a modular XMom or Classic, which I absolutely love. I think that large mods should be broken up into smaller ones which can be enabled selectively, as that helps with compatibility with certain characters and other mods.

i legitimately wish this was vanilla

I think something like this would be perfect for a Super form.

 

[Pyrakid Wolfo]

I think something like this would be perfect for a Super form.

Why should this be restricted to a Super form? Because super forms cant use shield abilities?
When you're super, you can defeat enemies by running into them, I wouldn't say having an aerial version of a grounded move is exactly too useful. I think being able to bounce farther and without being interrupted by spikes or enemies is a good enough reward.
Plus we dont know if Fang IS getting a super form. Considering it's not like just anyone can go super or anything.
