An update on the whole engine

Since the post got locked by accident for a full month, let me break down the status on the engine and what to expect.

The engine is being fully re-coded, the fatal error was about the new code being built on old code. Which created a lot of issues, I have no problems recording the whole thing as the previous code navigation was somewhat messy. The broadcast events were unorganized, the variables were over-used, and the list method was just too confusing.

-Exact Undertale Damage system
The previous system was based on how I thought the Undertale damage system worked, after doing deeper research, I realized most of my damage system had been coded incorrectly. So the new engine will feature very accurate formulas from Undertale.


New engine will now include:

-Multi monster system
You will now have the ability to add three monsters to the fight. Unfortunately, due to scratch limits, I cannot create the fancy dust effect for multi-monsters, this option will still be a thing only for one monster.
A new GUI method will be introduced, it's called enemy profiling. Each enemy profile can support up to three enemies (can be the same ones). To add enemies to this profile, you'll have to use the Enemy creator GUI.

Enemy Profiling will include:
Enemies (up to three), selected OST, and background.

Enemy Creator will include:
-All of the enemy base stats
-Enemies name
-Special editor (gives you more control over damage system)
-Enemy sprite selector

-Another feature that's under question


-Overworld editor (GUI)
Overworld editor will be a feature that allows you to create your very own overworld system with a special editor.
This editor will feature:
-Tile selection (all zones tiles will be included)
-Brush sizes
-Encounter points (with messages)
-Areas where enemies can occur with delay and rate
-Collision system
-Camera control
-Room node system, A to D, meaning you can have a room with 4 possible exits. The node system will be another GUI that will help you link rooms with one another.
-Background selector

-Another feature under question (with animation)


Multiplayer and CO-OP
CO-OP
You can play with someone on one keyboard, giving WASD and Arrow keys (can be reversed in settings) controls.

Multiplayer
You will have the ability to play with 3 people on cloud (all must be Scratchers rank). In settings, you can whitelist usernames that you want to play with.
I am unsure how this will work once all of you are in the overworld, but I'm already aware of how it will work during a battle.



That's about all, have fun.

Indeed, however, the new update claims that it will be a thing.
