; GROUPS ; ; NOTE: You probably don't even want to bother with monster groups any more, though an understanding ; of them might be of some use. Most world designers prefer to use the Link Editor to graphically ; place monsters individually on the map(s). ; ;----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Monster Groups ; ; These define the particular groups of monsters encountered in automatic fight ; scenes. ; ; When an automatic fight scene starts, the nearest link points 'difficulty level' ; is used to find a monster group. Then monsters from that group are added to ; the fight scene, but randomly. The likelyhood of a monster being added increases ; with distance from the link point (this is so that monsters get tougher the ; father you go from town. ; ; You can duplicate monster ids in the list if you want there to be a chance of ; several of that kind of monster in the same fight. For example, the list: ; ; 1,1,1,2,2,3 ; ; Could have as many as three monster 1, two monster 2, and one monster 3, though it ; is more likely to have fewer. Close to the link point, there is likely to be only ; a single monster, and it will be most likely to be a type 1 monster. Farther from ; the link point you are more likely to get the entire list of monsters. ; ; The idea, by the way, is to group monsters which you think are more likely to ; hang around together. Like lots of water monsters in a group tied to a watery link. ; ; If the link point specifies a POSITIVE difficulty level, then the monster list will ; get EASIER the closer you are to the link (this is suitable for 'town' links). If ; the difficulty level is NEGATIVE, then the monster list will get HARDER as you get ; closer to the link. (suitable for some 'guarded' area). So, difficulty levels ; -3 and 3 both refer to monster group 3. ; ; By convention, we will let difficulty level '0' mean 'no particular monsters near ; this link. Suitable for some sort of healing pool area. ; ; arg 0 : ID# (1-4095) This is the 'monster difficulty level' argument in the link ; arg 1-9; up to 9 monster IDs ; ; id potential_monster_list ; ; NEW FEATURE: Group 0 entry sets flags for special effects ; ; 0, 1 <-- this means monster groups are NOT RANDOM and all members will appear ; ; 0 - special entry 0, 1 ; ; 1 - 99 land based ; Jellies 1, 1,1,1,4,10,10,10 2, 4,4,4,10 3, 5,5,5 4, 6,6,6,9 5, 8,8,8,9 ; 6, 53,53,53 7, 54,54,54 8, 55,55,55 9, 57,57,57 10, 58,58,58 11, 59,59,59 12, 60,60,60 13, 61,61,61,59,59 14, 62,62,62,63,63,64 15, 63,63,62,62 16, 64,64,64,5,5,5,5 17, 65,65,65,68 ; 18, 66,66,66,10,10,1 19, 67,67,67,53,53 20, 68,68,68 21, 69,69,69 22, 70,70,70 23, 100,100,100 24, 101,101,101 25, 106,106,106 26, 107,107,107 27, 108,108,108 28, 110,110,110 29, 111,111,111 30, 112,112,112 ; 31, 113,113,113 32, 114,114,114 33, 115,115,115 34, 116,116,116 35, 117,117,117 36, 118,118,118 37, 119,119,119 38, 120,120,120 39, 121,121,121 40, 122,122,122 41, 123,123,123 42, 124,124,124 43, 125,125,125 44, 126,126,126 45, 127,127,127 46, 128,128,128 47, 129,129,129 48, 130,130,130 49, 153,153,153 50, 154,154,154 51, 155,155,155 ; 52, 201,160,160,160 53, 202,154,154,154 ; ; 100-149 pools of water 100, 2,2,2,4,4 101, 50,50,50 102, 52,52,52,4,4 103, 56,56,56 104, 104,104,104 105, 150,150,120,120 106, 204 ; ; 150-199 completely underwater 150, 3,3,3 151, 4,4,4 152, 51,51,51 153, 105,105,105 154, 109,109,109 155, 151 156, 205 ; ; 200-249 Special elements or big bosses 200, 7,7,7 201, 203 202, 206 203, 207 204, 208 205, 209 206, 210 207, 211 255, 255 ; 10xx Hot Sandy Graveyard Monsters 1000, 7,7,7,7 1001, 9,9,9,9 1002, 10,10,10,10 1003, 53,53,53,70 1004, 57,57,57,57 1005, 61,61,61,61 1006, 65,65,65,65 1007, 70,70,70,101 1008, 101,101,101,121 1009, 117,117,117,117 1010, 121,121,121,101 1011, 154,154,154,154,154,154 1012, 162,162,162,162 1013, 164,164,162,162 1014, 167,167,167,164 1015, 168,168,168,168 1016, 168,167,167,164 1017, 169,167,167,167 1018, 169,169,167,70,70 1019, 7,7,57,57,117,117 1020, 168,121,121,53,53 1021, 61,61,65,65,10,10,70 1022, 53, 101, 167, 169 ; ; 11xx underwater groups 1100, 3,3,3,3 1101, 51,51,51,51 1102, 56,56,56,56 1103, 69,69,69,69 1104, 105,105,105,105 1105, 109,109,109,109 1106, 115,115,115,115 1107, 150,150,150,150 1108, 151,151,151,151 1109, 3,3,109,109 1110, 51,3,3,3,3 1111, 115,109,109 1112, 151,115,115,115 1113, 105,69,69,69 1114, 56,56,115 1115, 151,151,105,105 1116, 105,105,69,56 1117, 3,3,69,4,4 1118, 3,3,4,4,4,4 1119, 109,109,109,3,3,3 1120, 51,51,105,105 1121, 56,56,150,109 1122, 69,69,3 1123, 151,109,109 1124, 115,109,109 1125, 56 1126, 150 ; ; 12xx Sandy Beachy Monsters and Pirates ; 1200, 2,2,2,2 1201, 4,4,4,4 1202, 6,6,6,6 1203, 50,50,50,50 1204, 69,69,69,69 1205, 104,104,104,104 1206, 111,111,111,112 1207, 112,112,112,113 1208, 113,113,113,114 1209, 4,4,69,4,4 1210, 104,6,6,6 1211, 114,114,111 1212, 112,113,111,113 1213, 2,2,4,4,104,104 1214, 111,111,104,69 1215, 113,69,69 ; ; 13xx Animal Kingdom Monsters ; 1300, 59,59,59,59 1301, 60,60,60,60 1302, 64,64,64,64 1303, 65,65,65,65 1304, 67,67,67,67 1305, 106,106,106,106 1306, 116,116,116,116 1307, 118,118,118,118 1308, 120,120,120,120 1309, 122,122,122,122 1310, 123,123,123,123 1311, 127,127,127,127 1312, 128,128,128,128 1313, 157,157,157,157 1314, 159,159,159,159 1315, 165,165,165 1316, 166,166,166 1317, 170,170,170 1318, 171,171,171,171 1319, 128,60,60,60 1320, 122,122,123,123 1321, 165,166,170,170 1322, 118,116,116,116 1323, 67,67,106,106,106 1324, 159,159,65,65,65 1325, 59,59,127,127 1326, 122,122,122,128 ; ; 14xx goblins and ogres and trolls, oh my!
