For a while now, I have been wanting to make Custom Spell Animations (CSA) for my hack. But I am running into a problem: The current CSA system doesn’t seem to be designed for Staff spells. As I cannot find a command that registers a hit, without displaying the “No Damage” popup. And no spell animations in the repo are designed for staves.
Example spell used: Sakura {7743}
What I need is for the CSA to register a hit, while NOT displaying “No Damage”. I know that for normal CSA, the command to register a hit is 1A. Currently, without this command, the spell animation ends, but the battle stalls forever, softlocking the game.
Is there a command, or combination of commands that allows for this in Vanilla? And if not, is there a patch somewhere that fixes this issue?
I know @Huichelaar has dabbled in Custom Battle Animation commands before. But looking into the ASM, it seems he hasn’t tackled this issue yet.
If you also don’t know, please send this to anyone who might know how to fix the issue.
Thank you
