Error: Failed to fill the audio buffer with decoded OGG data

Does anyone know what this error means and how to fix it?

Is it possible to make the default explosion do more damage?

Just temporarily depending on if the hero has enough stamina to attack

Is there to make it so the attack command being pressed stops the hero from attacking? I've tried using on_command_pressed(), on_state_changed() and on_stage_changing() but nothing seems to be working for me.

Hi I was wondering if it would be possible to have an enemy with multiple sprites with one of the sprites being on a higher layer than the others

Is it possible to change the opacity of dynamic tiles? Or would it only be possible by having two sets of tiles with one being opaque and one being transparent?

Hi, I'm just curious about if there is an ETA on 1.6? I've been anticipating it for a while and was just curious

I'm trying to make it so the hero can get hurt while swimming, but whenever he is hurt he goes back to his not swimming animation. I tried making it so that when the state is changed to hurt and his animation was swimming he would instead use a swimming hurt animation but this didn't work.

How can you make a drawable while using the light manager? Basically what I want to do is have a dark room, and rather than lighting a torch making the room lit, it would make a circle of light surrounding the torch. How can I do this?

Is there a way to make the trail of dust that appears when using the run ability to appear when just walking normal?

Yeah, but the problem is the unfreeze() is in the on_command_released function, but when the key is released nothing happens and the hero stays frozen

I started the item, but I can't get the command released function to work so the hero stays frozen

This is function:on_using()

Code ( lua) Select Expand

function item:on_using()
local map = game:get_map()
local hero = game:get_hero()

local direction = hero:get_direction()




  if game:is_command_pressed("item_1") or game:is_command_pressed("item_2") then
  state = 1
      if blastlevel < 4 then
    timer = sol.timer.start(2000, function()
      blastlevel = blastlevel + 1
    return true
    end)
  end
  end



    if game:get_item_assigned(2) == "blast" and not game:is_command_pressed("item_2") and state == 1 then
      game:simulate_command_released("item_2")
    end

    if game:get_item_assigned(1) == "blast" and not game:is_command_pressed("item_1") and state == 1 then
      game:simulate_command_released("item_1")
    end


end


function game:on_command_released(command)
  if command == "item_1" or "item_2" then
    timer:stop()
    hero:unfreeze()
    item:fire_blast()
  end
end


Hi I wanted to try and make some kind of energy blast attack that gets stronger the longer you hold it. Is there a way in the item to check if the specific item key that the item is assigned to is being held down?

Is there a way to make it so usual npcs stop when they collide with another usual npc the way that they stop when they collide with a generalized npc? I'm trying to two npcs walk in a circle, but if one of the npcs is stopped the other one will just walk right through it.

Hi, I was trying to make a custom ice entity that can be used for sliding ice puzzles, but after the hero slides on one and stops he is able to walk for a bit before he is forced into the slide again. Is there a certain collision test that can be done or something?
