Keen 5: Game is completed when entering a level

Post by Bubbbatom »

Hey there,

Wondering if it's possible to have the game end when entering a specific level (in this case level 13) from the world map?

Thanks

what exactly do you have in mind? do you want to have the game end

a) when touching something on the world map, or...
b) after the player finishes a certain level?

...plus, by ending the game you mean running a game over or triggering the win sequence?

So when entering a level entrance I'd like the win sequence to be triggered. I'm not sure how difficult it would be or if it's even possible to patch this in but it's what I'm after.
Thanks

Well, I also had Keen 5 requests and as Levellass said to me, she has limited free time and (my) patches are tricky, but possible to make, so she doesn't know when she will be done. So you guess when she will make yours. Just saying.

Thankfully this was made easy while looking for the Shikadi V-card patch. This should do what you want, the level trigger is the $0D in the first line:

Code: Select all

#Automatically win game when entering level 13:
%patch $D2E6 $0F920545RL
%patch $FE65 $55 $8B $EC $56 $8B $76 $06 $83 $3E $6F68W  $0D $75 $06 $C7 $06
             $6F70W $000FW   $EB $0C $B8 $000CW  $50 $9A $196E09EFRL     $83
             $C4 $02 $5E $5D $CB

Thanks Levellass! Suburbs has been on hold long enough so I've decided to omit the boss battle and clean up the mod hopefully in preparation for an upcoming release!

Oh wonderful stuff. I have some map tweaks that minimize the music memory errors and a patch that works to make said error unobtrusive. (The big problem is that music loads last, needing twice the song space free. I can circumvent this in Keen 4 but not Keen 5, and I tried.) Everything just went to mush here.

(Minor note/off-topic patch: What about my Keen 5 diagonal shoot and shootable switch patch? Really, just asking. I'm out anyway.)

I can't wait for Suburb mod anyway.
