Highlights
New Autolink Angle
- Added SpecialAngle.AUTOLINK_STRONG, a new autolink angle option that offers improved autolink behavior in many cases. This angle uses a combination of your momentum and the opponent’s relative position. Currently, this has only been implemented on the character template - check out its up aerial for implementation details and recommended statting.
New Hitbox Stat
- Added optional knockbackCapDelay hitbox stat, which delays a knockbackCap’s application by a given number of frames (meaning it won’t have any effect if you don’t have one set). The typical use case for this is on attacks that use autolink angles. An example can be found on the template character’s up aerial. Note that the autolink angle and knockbackCap are turned off before the last hit of the attack so it can hit as normal.
