Game Helper

Source Code: https://github.com/ella-TAS/gamehelper/

A helper originally created for Crossover Collab.

I started this helper when I joined Crossover Collab in order to learn coding for our mappers. Since then, it has become a huge project with lots of fun entities, crossover and others. I learned coding Celeste mods while making this helper, and it was a lot of fun. I hope you will have just as much fun playing or mapping with the now published entities.

For some documentation, see https://maddie480.ovh/celeste/custom-entity-catalog#game-helper You can read a description for each entity by hovering over the name.

Full showcase video coming soon!

EntityModifier entity selection Single mode (allEntities set to false): Choose the nearest entity (or the nearest of the set type). Place nodes to choose multiple single entities with the same settings!

allEntities mode: Modify all entities of the set type or the type of the nearest entity in the room.

newlyAddedEntities: Works only with “Only Type” set. The Modifier hooks Scene.Add and adds any entity that matches the type to the modifying list. If no flag is set, this also triggers a modification. Please turn this option off if you don't need it (likely).

You can find the entity types by enabling debug mode in the modifier and reading log.txt. Please turn off debug again afterwards. Setting an entity type is recommended since the modifier can sometimes pick a Trail Manager (blue madeline dash outline) instead.

How the EntityModifier is activated If “Only Once” is set, the modifier is removed after its first use.

If no flag is set or the flag is true, entities will be modified once during room load.

If a flag is set, entities will be modified every time the flag turns true.

If “Every Frame” is set, entities will be modified on every frame (if a flag is set: while the flag is true).

If “Do Newly Added Entities” is set, entities will be modified on addition of a new entity unless the flag is false.
