Health Bars Reimagined 💥 No Pen...?!? 👍 Scratch Tutorial

[@boxxy7688]

I think it would be a cool idea to make a tutorial for unique enemy AI. I have made some games that require lots of AI (some more complex than others), my newest AI design is the most difficult. not for my own sake but I think it would be cool to see what kind of enemy AI you can develop, removing that robotic feel. such as they follow you until you're out of view/get stuck/get captured. Edit: if anyone is curious the hard AI I'm making is similar to the gargutron nextbot.

[@sequelz]

[@RenardioMFG]

This is a really creative way of adding health bars, really cool

[@SLeapy_Frogii]

For anyone who is struggling with the creation of the health bar costume, use this tip instead: change your brush size to 5 do what he said but outline the area with that pixel and fill it in, it makes the process simpler and easier to stay perfect :)

[@SLeapy_Frogii]

And for further perfection, to fix any border mistakes, the brush size for the border is 2

[@KaydenAP]

Griffpatch's inventions are always amazing

[@creepersaur]

"I wish we had drawing tools..." Griffpatch! The Scratch Addons extension has an onion-skin feature which allows you to see a ghost of the previous costume. (Used alot in animation). Very nice video, I was expecting a much harder or PEN used health bar.

[@gameking1169]

I use that feature for animating!

[@Dabicco]

The "Big" Sprite has literally solved all of my scratch issues! I use it in almost every game I make!

[@N8-Squared]

OH MY GOD! THATS GENIUS, I NEVER WOULD OF THOUGHT OF THAT. On top of it being easy to do with clones or separate sprites (if you don't know how to use clones) but if you were to do it with pen it would be super performant! I am actually gobsmacked, my jaw is on the floor. I'll be honest, when you started the RPG series, I got back into scratch and I started working on a big pen project that I am really proud of. It is defiantly my best game to date and if I end up finishing it I'll come back and let you know.

[@griffpatch]

I'd love that!

[@N8-Squared]

Why did I write that damn comment? So I had been working on that big game which was a picross game. I was trying to put a lot of effort into it where I added a level editor, a level code system, I was gonna add community made levels progressively after it was released, I added a level select screen where it loads all the levels and draws them with pen, etc. When near the end of development I realised... WHY AM I MAKING THIS IN SCRATCH!? so I not working on this scratch version anymore and I may potentially make a mobile version in unity instead. I have found that a lot of picross games are either made to make loads of money or just don't have features like level editors and stuff, and I want to put as much into one as I bloody well can. If that ever ends up happening I'll let you know how it goes. Also, I have only shown this game to friends who either don't use scratch or know what a "picross" or a "nonogram" is so I was wondering if you would like to take a look at it? I could send the .sb3 to you via like twitter dm's or email or something idk.

[@JMNplays584]

Thank you so much! I rally needed the simple health bar for the turn-based combat RPG im working on!

[@Speed-TV]

I think it would better to put a broadcast tick block inside a forever loop, and use the "when I receive tick" to do the positioning scripts. That way all the clones and the original sprite can go to their position and it won't lag behind when there are other loops in the project.

[@griffpatch]

Very good idea :D - And it's very much up to you how you want to go about this!

[@mirrorkirby123]

I used this tip. Thanks.

[@Diego_2-22]

Another thing that could be done is make a custom block that makes a sprite go to a certain position relative to another sprite, because with custom blocks you can disable screen refresh, which is the very tiny amount of time that otherwise passes between the running of each block.

[@F34RFACTORR]

I'm a little confused as to how this would work with a clone. Could you explain this to me?

[@Speed-TV]

@@Diego_2-22 I don't think that will work because a custom block inside a loop will still run like an animation, and I think it was griffpatch who discovered the fix to sprites "lagging behind" when going to another sprite using the tick system

Every time you continue to surprise me with new tricks i didnt think was possible! This is one of the most creative ideas on health bars. Great job 👍

[@That1Knife]

For me for some reason the original sprite would lag- when I would have my character move (I used this in an already partially complete game) the original sprite would lag behind, but not the clone. I fixed it just by making two clones, each with different costumes in the correct order, detecting which costume it was under the "When I start as clone" and put the script in an if-else statement. It also fixed the tiny line thing, but that might just be because of my size.

Guys, 13:36 You dont need to do all of that just for the bar to change color! Do set color to HEALTH/2 in a forever loop. That will do the same job just as good. Just make sure you copy this for the clones too.
