Hmm, thinking about how best to make Goblins interact with each other


Can probably reuse the code for finding Chairs.

Will need to add a variable to store the Goblin, I could reuse the one for storing the current Chair, but that might cause issues since they have different variables.

I should add Chatting to the State Machine, along with a new Sub-State for different parts of the chatting actions.

Maybe add the Emotes to the system that lets them jump and spin (as used in the Support Statue Parade)

If a Goblin is Wandering or Idle, find another Goblin who is free, assign each other as interacting, approach them, face each other, then do a random Chatting action.

I noticed Lightning wasn't animating properly, like at all. It just instantly disappeared, so I've reworked it and gave it random duration!

Watch out!

Since I've added the Doctor NPC, I'm adding non-food based healing...do I have to figure out a new animation or just let the Goblins eat everything?

Edit: Fixed it! (gif 2)

Urgh I got the days wrong, Machamp is next Sunday

Oh well

Thanks to Razer for providing the laptops and peripherals!

I wish I had software for making this easier, it's all fine and dandy until I need to move sections of lines. Then I have to do it one by one X'D

Save file loading time improved!

First load is a fresh game, second is a previous save file being loaded.

I can probably get it down more, but this is without rearranging any code, just skipping over some unneeded bits.

Score! Was a total pain to catch, but I managed to get a couple Dynamax Suicune!
