Combo System

[NightStalker]

Here's the combo system I've made, I am planning to improve this but right now it's only for 6 combos and nothing more. 6 three hit combos.

Q means Quick Attack and E means Heavy Attack

The system check the first pressed attack, and starts a timer, quick timer if quick attack used and heavy timer if heavy used, if the next attack is a valid combo and is pressed in the given time the next move of the combo is executed. Else it is just the first move of possible combos.

I had to keep count of E and Q when they are pressed. And a combo count to check if the moves are a part of the combo.

If the timer runs out, every counters are reset to 0.

The only thing I don't like about this system is, it is executed instantly, I wll have to find a way to interrupt the attackers if they are attacked first.

This system is not MUI, and is not intended to be.
