Hi - after finally starting with Nesmaker and deciding to start with the official strategy guide's tutorial (PDF ) I kinda ran into two problems. Everything up to page 209 is running well - I am able to shoot the bullet and it gets destroyed when colliding with a solid object. But to shoot a monster and make it disappear or to destroy it - the guide tells me to use the common script " Handle Monster Hurt" and assign the script "doHandleHurtMonster.asm" - I did that but nothing happens.
When I look at the "doHandleHurtMonster.asm" script - it just has the 2nd line "DestroyObject". -> is that supposed to be just one line or is something missing?
Don't I have to somewhere tell Nesmaker when to use the script Handle Monster Hurt or refer to that script when the projectile hits the monster object?
Moreover - on page 216 I am supposed to define the "PickUp script" by assigning the "templatePickUpScript.asm" file. -> This gives me the error that the game.nes file can not be found.
The "templatePickUpScript.asm" differs from the picture in the guide and when I change it to match the lines in the guide it works - so somehow the additional lines are messing things up.
So - if someone can help me out how to destroy a monster (in this case the crab) I would be very grateful =)
By the way - to get help like in my case - is here the best place to ask or on facebook.com or discord?
