| The information below describes features introduced in Zelda Classic version 2.50.
|
The Enemy Editor lets you modify existing enemy types and create new ones. It is found under Quest/Enemies in the Menus.
- Name
- Give your enemy a name.
[edit] Tile/Graphics
- O. Tile, S. Tile, E. Tile and respective W/H fields
- Select the tiles your enemy uses. To make your enemy animate, make the frames into individual tiles in sequence. Select the first tile, then set the number of tiles in the W field.
[edit] Movement, Behavior
- HP
- How many hit points this enemy has. It should be noted that a weapon with a Power of 1 will remove two points per hit. This is because, in The Legend of Zelda, an enemy having 1 HP meant that it could be killed in one sword stab, or one boomerang hit. Enemies with 2 HP, conversely, were killed in one sword stab but merely stunned by boomerangs. This weapon damage system is not present in Zelda Classic, and the ratio of enemy HP to weapon Power is reluctantly maintained for historical reasons.
- Damage
- How many quarter-hearts Link loses if it touches him.
- W. Damage
- How much damage, in quarter-hearts, Link takes if this enemy's weapon hits him.
