So I've taken matters into my own hand. Ever since I noticed the TAP combo generator stopped working I've had plans to make a combo generator of my own but I need a little help with the combos. Basically I've got 5 CATs; simple, advanced, bone breaker, sword and finisher/special. I realize that what I might view as good moves for the machine might not be a bit difficult for others to animate. So what I'm asking for is a list of your favorite moves you would like to see implemented into the machine. All contributions are welcomed :D

I know this sounds stupid, but does ta combo generator generate a load of random moves? and then you can use them in combos?

It generates randomly but in the order that you pick and the boxes you tick

I don't see the problem in thinking of your own combos, a generator isn't that necessary.

I don't think it is either but I want to make one. It's also a way for me to expand my knowledge of action-script coding. All I'm asking for here is good moves

And it's too much of you to Google a list of fighting moves?

I would also like to make a combo generator.. I have been trying to get help with the coding for a while and never knew that you coded :O could you also help me at last get the base code for it. I would like to make a combo generator just as a practice to further my knowledge in AS 2.0 and also because you don't always have those same moves stored in your head or sometimes you can't remember that one move you want to do or maybe your just being lazy thats why a combo generator would be good. also some people like a challenge so upload your moves too and just have it in a more advance category. buuttt here are a set of moves.. " aerial attack, sweep, block, dodge, low-kick, high-kick, punch, jab, front kick, knee breaker, spinal smash, neck break, slap, body slam, throw, leg break, arm break, drop kick, spin kick, 360 spin kick, spartan kick, tackle, thrust(sword), pelvic thrust(lol), downward slash, upward slash, cut limb(ex. arm, leg, etc.), ball smash, elbow, uppercut." Thats all I can think of right now.

Wow are you trying to sound clever right now? If you're not going contribute anything positive then move on, don't poke the bear.

where my moves any help? I am sure if I come up with more moves I will be sure to post them :>

stop saying stuff like that cause the TAP combo generator was actually used ALOT when i was still around
but anyways how about different weapon combos other than just sword, how about bow and arrow combos and gun combos i dunno just throwing some ideas out there

OMG why did I not think of that! Damn that's not a bad idea actually, thanks Hydra.

If you guys want a starting point, here's a rudimentary combo generator I made not long ago. It's in AS3. You need a dynamic text box with instance name comboTxt on the stage.

//DESIRED COMBO LENGTH GOES HERE (minimum 2)

var i:int = 7;





//set your variables first

var startermoves:Array = new Array;

var middlemoves:Array = new Array;

var finishermoves:Array = new Array;



var randNum:int = new int;

var combo:String = "";





combo = "";

//SHOVE IN AS MANY MOVES AS YOU WANT HERE

startermoves = ["face punch! ", "spinning kick! ", "uppercut! ", "etc!"];

middlemoves = ["low punch, ", "punch flurry, ", "low kick, ", "axe kick, ", "etc, "];

finishermoves = ["face slam!!", "head smasher!!", "roundhouse kick!!", "special ability!!", "etc!!"];



i -= 2;

//reduce i by 2 to compensate for starting and finishing moves



//initial attack

trace("==starter move");

randNum = Math.floor(Math.random() * startermoves.length);

trace(startermoves[randNum]);

combo += startermoves[randNum]; 

//add the data for the randomly generated array position to the combo string



//middle combo chain according to "moves" variable

trace("==middle moves");

while(i > 0){

	randNum = Math.floor(Math.random() * middlemoves.length);

	trace(middlemoves[randNum]);

	combo += middlemoves[randNum];

	i--;

};

	

//finishing attack

trace("==finishing move");

randNum = Math.floor(Math.random() * finishermoves.length);

trace(finishermoves[randNum]);

combo += finishermoves[randNum];



//display combo

comboTxt.text = combo;

this is very bare bones. you can use this as a template and add to it if you want.



for the record i disapprove of using a combo generator seriously, though. if you want your animation to have proper flow you're best off using and developing your own creativity instead.

here are some moves: spin punch, spin elbow, smashing elbow, superman punch, uppercut, knee, rip head, rip arm, rip leg, rip bodie, flying knee, sweep kick, double kick, whoop tha whoop (i dont now how to write that one ) i hope this help you :D
