Title: Custom Players
Post by: Au1Calculus on September 02, 2015, 04:35:56 PM

I am in the process of creating my own players. I have been using the Hammersprite application to export my characters to XML, but currently it only exports them as enemies. Is there any other way to create custom players? I'm going to try to just export them as an enemy then try to change the XML file to be the same format as the player's XML, but i was wondering if anyone knew of an easier way.

Well, the only thing you can really do is change the graphics, not the behaviour.

But you SHOULD be able to use hammersprite, just for the png, I think.

How do I make my Player, playable? If I add him in the players folder will he be available?

Well, if you place the png where they "should" be in the game, then it will be replaced yes.
