General Questions

I have two questions 1) How would I go about adding npc's as ai controlled partners. I only want them to attack enemies and move as the stage progresses. and 2) Is it possible to add longer stages such as the first stage of streets of rage 2 where you turn corners and move at an angle? Feel free to summarize or let me know if its been answered on the site or described in the manual. Thanks for any and all help

I want the npc to spawn at the beginning of the stage when the player spawns how do I achieve this?

I want npc allies to only spawn if one player is playing but when I add 1pspawn they dont spawn when two players are active but they also don't spawn when there is just one

There's no such thing as 1spawn, that parameter is very old and was originally meant for adding more enemy spawns to deal with increasing numbers of players.

You will need a script that checks for multiple payers and only spawns the NPC if there are none. This is pretty simple to do and there are multiple examples around if you look for them.

I have a question about emulators. For some reason when I'm running one it kind of crashes, it shrinks down to size and I have to click on it to keep running the game.

This is annoying, especially when I get to a hard part. It's like it goes to sleep. I've tried going into system security and power settings (battery, plug in) but that doesn't work.

I've tried playing an mp3 as a screen saver. My PC stays awake but the emulator keeps crashing. Any suggestions?
