• Electric Ball object: Place ELECTRIC_BALL in the desired room.
• Impact points (optional): Add one or more ELECTRIC_BALL_IMPACT_POINT objects in the same room.
• OCB matching: Set Impact Point OCB to match the Electric Ball’s OCB so they link correctly.

ItemFlags Reference

• ItemFlags[0] – Switch-off distance (default 7 blocks). Powers down if Lara/targets are farther than this.
• ItemFlags[1] – Attack distance (default 3 blocks). Attacks Lara if she is within this range and line of sight is clear.
• ItemFlags[2] – Target type or ID. Idle (None), Lara (Target), or chosen impact point index.
• ItemFlags[3] – Attack cooldown timer (~70). Higher = longer delay between lightning cycles; lower = faster.
• ItemFlags[4] – Glow/visual intensity timer (~70). Controls how long sparks, smoke, and glow effects persist.
• ItemFlags[5] – Target entity index. Auto-set to Lara’s index or selected impact point.
• ItemFlags[6] – Damage ticks (default 20). Each tick applies 40 HP damage if Lara is exposed.

Setup Instructions

• Place ELECTRIC_BALL in the target room.
• (Optional) Add Impact Points with matching OCB values.
• Set ItemFlags[0] for switch-off distance.
• Set ItemFlags[1] for Lara attack distance.
• Lower ItemFlags[3] to reduce time between attacks.
• Lower ItemFlags[4] to shorten glow/smoke duration.
• Lower ItemFlags[6] to reduce sustained damage per cycle.
• Test in-game and adjust values until attack frequency and intensity feel balanced.

Example Configurations

Standard Ball

ItemFlags[0] = 7;   // switch-off distance
ItemFlags[1] = 3;   // attack distance
ItemFlags[3] = 70;  // cooldown
ItemFlags[4] = 70;  // glow decay
ItemFlags[6] = 20;  // damage ticks

Fast-Attack Ball

ItemFlags[0] = 7;   // switch-off distance
ItemFlags[1] = 3;   // attack distance
ItemFlags[3] = 40;  // shorter cooldown
ItemFlags[4] = 60;  // faster glow decay
ItemFlags[6] = 10;  // fewer damage ticks

Tips

• Reduce ItemFlags[3] to shorten cooldown between attacks.
• Reduce ItemFlags[6] for shorter bursts of damage.
• Use OCB linking to connect Electric Balls with Impact Points.
• Always test values in-game to balance difficulty.
