About Perfect Dodges

Adds a souls-like/RPG combat mechanic where if you dodge at the instant where you are supposed to take damage, you don't take that damage.

NOTE: THIS MOD IS A PROOF OF CONCEPT WITH IMPERFECT CONTROLS DUE TO LIMITED FEATURES/UNDERSTANDING OF HYTALE API. THE MOMENT ABILITY 2/3 OR CUSTOM INPUTS ARE SUPPORTED, THE MOD WILL BE ABLE TO ADAPT INSTANTLY AND SUPPORT FLAWLESS DODGE/DASHING

Setup:

Dash with Ability 2 ("useAbility2": true)

Ability 2 should be on an individual button (a button purely for dodging)

You can dash as long as you are holding any item in the game (please report if not)

Allows air dashes

More "experimental" than sprint walking, but feels infinitely better unless you encounter a bug or refuse to have a dedicated button for dodging

Dash with Sprint+Walk ("useAbility2": false)

Set Sprint and Walk to the same button

Cannot air dash

Configuration: ...\mods\Perfect_Dodges\dodge_config.json

"dodgeCooldownMs": minimum time between each dodge "iFrameDurationMs": the amount of time you are invincible during a dodge "dodgeVelocity": the horizontal velocity of your dash "verticalHop": the vertical velocity of your dash "staminaCost": the cost of a dash (hytale players have 10 stamina points total) "allowAirDash": whether or not you want to allow air dashing "useAbility2": true = tap ability 2 to dodge, false = sprint/walk key to dodge "sprintTapThresholdMs": the amount of time you have to hold your sprint key to not trigger a dash (0 is always dash) "onlyRoll": true = only use the roll animation for dodging "onlyTwirl": true = only use the twirl animation for dodging "onlyFlip": true = only use the flip animation for dodging Current Features:

Choose either ability2 or sprint/walk as your dodge button

Ability to air dash (can toggle on or off) when using ability to dodge

Config file to adjust values such as the durations of dodge cooldown and iFrame

/dodgemod to check current settings

Perfectly timing a dash on the moment of impact fully negates the damage received

Recieving a hit on the head transforms your dodge animation into a roll

Recieving a hit on the body transforms your dodge animation into a twirl

Recieving a hit on the legs transforms your dodge animation into a flip

Future Updates:

Make custom keybind available as soon as Hytale allows it

Add first person dash animations??

Add air dash animations??

Add an option to always dash towards where you are looking

Add an option to disable dash jumps

Add an option to adjust dash jump stamina cost

Make dash direction registration better

IM SO LOST ON HOW TO DO THIS :(((((((
