Third Training Holograms Setting
Third Training Holograms Setting
I get the feeling that with a little tinkering we could easily exand upon the training hologram spawning droid's script to add a more gradual step-ladder training for students.
Currently we have two difficulty settings: simpler and tougher. Simpler is perfect for younger student training, and tougher is perfect for an advanced student who is practicing their speed in combat, but I strongly feel we are missing a third setting in-between that is designed for lightsaber versus lightsaber combat, but with a more leasurely paced NPC, so that the (medium-level) student can focus their accuracy with blocking and evading, and improve upon their overall technique.
Could we have a third setting for this, with slower moving holographic opponents (NPCs)?

Re: Third Training Holograms Setting
That's probably do-able. When you read through the NPC settings in their ext_data files, you have these configurations:
Also, always remember, Knights and Masters can provide a much more versatile range of bots for your combat pleasure. Feel free to ask
These exist alongside a list of Force abilities and, of course, their HP. Now that one there has 80 HP and basic Lightsaber abilities, but not a lot else - for reference, that's the ext_data for initiate_single. Now compared to knight_single, which has 500 health:rank captain
reactions 2
aim 2
move 2
aggression 2
evasion 2
intelligence 2
So, yup, there's room to maneuver, particularly when you also add in Force abilities: neither of these two have anything beyond the basics. So we could always whip up some bots with intermediate ones. When I read padawan_single, I noticed that it's practically identical to knight_single - 500 health, 5s in all the rank settings, minimal Force abilities. Maybe we should edit that to a 250 HP, 4 stat bot? And do the same with it's contemporaries?rank captain

That sounds good. I would possibly even put their reaction setting down to 3 (average) for Padawans because we need time to react in order to make best use of our form practice.
First comes proper form, then comes speed in our practice.
I take it that the reaction setting is responsible for their apparently chaotic, and very fast paced attacks?

Re: Third Training Holograms Setting
That would be my guess. That and aggression.

Re: Third Training Holograms Setting
Such a thing is definitely possible and I believe this is a good suggestion. If any of you have other ideas about this subject, I look forward to read them!
