Item + restore health

[Wombat2112]

Hello friends of the Open Bor and Chrono Crash. Trying my best to word this correctly. If game player is damaged and enemy or crate Etc. drops items and for instance can drop a medical pack or perhaps food item that restores health. Perhaps a smaller item restores 1/2 half of health meter or [HP] and larger pack restores full [HP]. That just easiest scenario I can think about. Is there a good example what the code might appear like especially if you wanted to make variable more complex. Rather perhaps particular creation. Maybe one 1/4, even. Lastly maybe items reversed and has negative effects like poison and [HP] goes down percentage. Hopefully I am not asking to complicated per thread per inquiry. Perhaps categorically belonging in health restoration. I think experienced member could say?

Side note : This keyboard is partiality non functionality - promise to correct any error.

Most items in OpenBoR games give either health restore or score so you should be able to create what you want without complex script. Heroes and heroines usually have fixed max health so it's easy to figure out how much HP an item should restore to restore half or full health.
Unless, your heroes and heroines have variable max health such as with levelling system or at least with HP extension, then yes, you'd need script for item to restore exactly half or full health based on current max health.

So I can find out more about this in the manual?

to damage players like this, by a fixed amount, you just need to use a negative value, like i did:

name Poison_Potion
health -50
type item
gfxshadow 1
nolife 1

@O Ilusionista -can it appear anywhere? For instance platformer and item is in location requiring jumps to reach-that more complex in terms of screen placement

 

[Bloodbane]

Of course. You can place item in any place.

I guess sceen placement is how I should have worded it. Like if above ground I need to learn coordinate and position for each screen

sorry, I cannot understand what you want to do, maybe we have a language barrier here.
what you want to do, exactly? Can you give us more information please?

You should get a 2D game template and play around with placing items on platforms, preferably ones with different altitudes.
