I need help to figure out how to extend this hyper effect

[Alexziq]

This is the DCvM hyper BG, and for the life of me I cant figure out how to get it to last longer. increasing the helper changestate superemovetime doesnt work. It works fine on a fighting hyper, but any hyper with a helper wont seem to work. What am I missing?

You do know that I am going to steal this code

[State 0, ]
type = RemoveExplod
trigger1 = time >= 10
ID = 110
ignorehitpause = 1

[State 0, ]
type = RemoveExplod
trigger1 = time >= 10
ID = 9999
ignorehitpause = 1

[State 80181, 7]

Trigger1 = Time = 20

im not sure if i understood what u want, but u already test mod this time values?

The BG stops b4 the hyper is finished. I want the hyper effect to stay on screen longer. For some reason without changing anything it will last through the entire move on one hyper, but it dies too quick on another.

[State 0, ]
type = RemoveExplod
trigger1 = time >= 10
ID = 110
ignorehitpause = 1

[State 0, ]
type = RemoveExplod
trigger1 = time >= 10
ID = 9999
ignorehitpause = 1

[State 80181, 7]
type = DestroySelf
Trigger1 = Time = 20

I think ive  tried to increase those values without any results, but I'll give it another try.

[Alexziq]

The code is very odd, every hyper on their characters use this same helper state for the hyper Background. There is no adjustment for the length of the background that I can find, it just seems like it fits itself to the lenght of the move automatically.

I wonder if its somehow attached to the command?

[Fallen_Angel]

You will need to change the trigger of the changestate

use something like these ifelse(root,stateno=state,desired,time>=xxx,time=20)

these means, that when the char its on certain statedef, the changetime  will be =xxx....in any other situation will be =20

Do you mean in the state that calls the helper, or the command? Looking at through Ghost Riders code I dont notice any variance in the change to helper state from hyper to hyper, it all looks like the same hyperbg helper code for every move.

Would I add it as a 2nd trigger since I need it to kick in on animelm =3?

Actually I could see this working if I had a little more clarification.

[Fallen_Angel]

the helper state controls the explod ...you have made the explod last undefinitely (removetime =-1)...so when the changestae or when the helper is destroyed, the explod should be deleted with the helper so expanding the state time, may fix that........or check in the negatives states, for a removeexplod,, that is deleting the explod

So look for a remove explode? It does seem the bg ends when the P1 animation does. Is there anything else that alters the state time? Checking in the negative stes Id want to look for the origional moves state?

[Fallen_Angel]

in the negatives states look for removexplod.

[Alexziq]

in the negatives states look for removexplod.

Now would that remove all explodes because I never had that problem with my old hyper BG which actually was an explode state. Would it even effect this since its a helper? The hyper actually has other helpers in it that dont do this.

[Alexziq]

Hmmmn I think I know what it is. Excursion helped me with a code that used to have the same anim state number 99999. I wonder if its feeding off that remove explode? Hmmmmn

I could swear I changed them all to 7777, but ya never know

[Alexziq]

Well none of these things work, can anyone spare an hour or so to take a look at this?

[Fallen_Angel]

Maybe I can check it...but I need the char
