Water/Shallows border

[Archangel]

Is there a way to do this that is efficient?

Perhaps you could grant us with a slightly better explanation of what you want?

Sure, here's a picture of the four combos...


It's those 4 diagonal water shallows link is facing I made the diamond with.

I still don't understand. Are you saying you want a way to draw the border between shallow water and normal water through the middle of a combo? I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that would be way to complicated to justify it.

[Archangel]

well basically I want the combos to function as a water if link is on water and shallows if link is on shallows.

[Questwizard88]

So basically it needs to change combo types to shallows if Link is on a shallow water combo, and back to water if he's swimming in water? If so, can't you use two sets of combos for that, or maybe even secrets to switch them?

[Archangel]

The tile has a diagonal down the middle so the change would happen therr.

[Russ]

Well, I don't know much about scripting, but (I think) it would have to check for Link's X and Y position, which means it would be different for every screen, and you'd have to set every pixel boundary. Bottom line: It would be a pain in the rear, and not really worth it.

[Joe123]

Oh.
You mean you want to make half-combotypes.

You probably could, but I don't think I'd really wanna do it.

[Archangel]

On second thought, I'll just use shallows and call it good.
