ENEMY EDITOR

---

ENEMY EDITOR has many limitations.
It doesn't always work out the way you think it will.
See  possible questions and their answers.

You can place enemies freely.
For example, you can increase the number of zombies or place enemies where they do notappear.

However, there are restrictions.
If you increase the number of enemies or place enemies that are not supposed to appear inthe scenario, the following problems may occur.

-	PCSX2 may freeze and result in an error.
-	The enemy may not function properly.
-	Even if it functions normally in single play, when playing with an increased number of playersin online play, it may freeze or not function properly.
-	Adding or changing enemies may affect PCSX2 performance. For example, loading time will be longer when moving to a room. Also, the time lag may increase during online play. If the PC has low PCSX2 emulator capability, the frame rate may drop.

Therefore, if you change or increase the number of enemies, be sure to perform the followingtests.

For offline play, please confirm that it works correctly with you and two AIPC present.

For online play, please confirm that it works without any problems even if you and up to threeother players are in the same room.

	6-1.INITIAL tab
	In the INTIAL tab, you can specify the initial state of enemies such as zombies. Most enemies start with a value of 00. And there is no initial state meaning, but for zombies there are different initial states. For more information, see the video below. START UP TIMER  is a delay timer when enemies such as zombies start up. For example, if you want it to start after 10 seconds, enter the decimal number 10 as the value. ACTIVE RANGE  is a valid specification for some initializations. For example, you can specify if you want to start moving when you approach a zombie. DOOR ID  can be specified when the initial state is "Appear by knocking on the door". DOOR ID is the ID of the door of the room. It can be specified when zombies and "AXE MAN" come in by knocking on the door. See  CONNECTION ROOM if you want to know the appropriate DOOR ID value. Any value can be entered in the  input box. In this case, enter a hexadecimal number from 00 to FF and press the  UPDATE  key.

ITEM FUNCTION This zombie moves from room to room Check this box if the enemy is a Zombie or Hunter, Tyrant, Thanatos or AXEMAN and you want to move from room to room. Patrol a fixed route When the enemy moves from room to room, specify whether to move out of the room or stay in the room when the enemy loses sight of the player. For example, when Jim pretends to be dead, you can specify whether the zombies will leave the room or stay inside. If you check the box, zombies will go out. TRACKING PATTERN Specifies the enemy's tracking pattern when the enemy moves from room to room. This tracking pattern value can only specify the range of values determined by the scenario. For example, if pattern 3 does not exist, specifying 3, 4, 5, etc. will not work Time to move to next room Specifies the speed at which the enemy moves from room to room when the enemy moves from room to room. You can specify 30 steps from 0 to 30. 0 : The default and the enemy will move in about 15 seconds. 1:  The enemy moves in a very short time. This means that as soon as the player moves from room to room, it will follow them. 30 : Not tracked for a very long time.
	6-3.ABILITY tab
	These can modify enemy abilities. ITEM OFFSET FUNCTION HEALTH +51 Enemy health correction value. You can specify a range from 0 to 8. 0 is the minimum health. 7 is the maximum health. If set to 8, the enemy has infinite health and cannot be defeated. POWER +50 The enemy's attack correction value. It can be set from 0 to 7. 0 is the lowest value, enemy attack power is low. 7 is the maximum value, and the enemy's attack power is high. SPEED NORMAL +64 You can specify the normal speed of enemies such as zombies. The range that can be specified differs between FILE1 and FILE2. This is because zombies move differently. BOOST +65 You can specify the speed when enemies such as zombies accelerate and become faster.

Eight steps from 0 to 7 can be specified. 0 is the hardest to knock down and 7 is the easiest to knock down. TIME specifies the knockdown time. Eight steps from 0 to 7 can be specified. 0 is the shortest knockdown time, 7 is the longest knockdown time.

RANGE/REACTION REACTION +54 Indicates enemy reaction distance. A high value will detect the player from a distance and start tracking them. Low values make players harder to find. TRACKING +53 Indicates enemy tracking distance. If enemies spot the player, they will start chasing the player. The lower this value, the easier it is to escape from enemies. The higher this value, the harder it is to escape from enemies. ATTACK +56 The enemy's attack reaction range. If you get close to an enemy, they will attack you. The lower this value, the narrower the attack range. The higher this value, the wider the attack range. ATTACK Charcteristics +61 The setting information is unknown in detail. I think it's the personality of the enemy's attack. +62 +63 +52 +55 +57 BREAK RATE +74 The rate at which zombies will rest when chasing and losing sight of the player. 0 to 3 can be specified. 0 is short break time. 3 takes a long time to rest.

	Zombies, dogs, crows, etc. will reappear even if you defeat them. Outbreak enemies mostly respawn. You can specify 3 modes of respawn for each enemy. 0 This enemy corpse does not disappear, and the corpse is revived. If you specify this, the corpse will not disappear when you defeat the enemy. And the corpse does not respawn. For example, Elimination zombies have this designation. 1 This enemy disappears and reappears in a different location. Most normal enemies have this designation. When you kill an enemy, its corpse disappears and respawns in another location. Most normal enemies have this designation. 2 This enemy does not disappear or respawn with a corpse. Licker and Hunter Gamma have this designation. Even if they kill, the corpse will come back to life. The respawn time can be specified in 8 levels from 0 to 7. 0 will revive the enemy in the shortest time. 7 is the longest time the enemy will respawn. You can select the respawn location from the respawn coordinates defined in the scenario. See ENEMY RESPAWN EDITOR for respawn locations.
	6-5.SIZE tab
	his SIZE tab allows you to change the size of the enemy's body. For example, you can make zombies bigger or smaller. However, if you change the size, the enemy's attack will not hit or your attack will not hit the enemy.
	6-5.OTHER tab
	Other tab. You can specify unknown data as a function. I'm not sure what happens when you change the value. Try it yourself.. About the +77 Showdown Event This is an internal event number that occurs when you kill a Showdown boss. For example, the first boss of "Showdown3", "G-Mutant", has an internal event with a value of "1". If you change this number, even if you beat "G-Mutant" or win, the internal event will not occur, so you will not switch to the next stage.
