Re: [Creature] Scorpion ! Almost Finished - Death Animation

The towers, spawners, and bosses don't have a death animation though? The corpse.xml is just the one frame, and the actor doesn't have a death animation in their .xml?

Right, but I don't think there's a problem with having both a corpse and a death animation.

the corpse will spawn at the end of a death animation.

On mine, the corpse spawns at the beginning of the animation, and also at the end. So it looks almost like theres two corpses. The way I have it now though, I like it better I think - it plays an animation and shows the corpse for 5 seconds, then it blinks out. A bit like in the older TMNT games eh? :D

I like the "corpse is here for a few seconds, then disappears" approach too.

Nice scorpion!

Thanks! Means a lot :D I'm having a blast pouring hours into making these things. I've got a few more almost polished, I hope to make a decent custom map soon to showcase some of these things. I'm particularly proud of one item that I can't wait to show off :D
