Why do I post blogs anymore; no one reads them :V

As always, changing things up and making them less…. impossible.

You use step events… to administrate boss attacks…?

I'm trying not to post the more complex ones, heheh.

Also, there's nothing WRONG with timelines, they're just less flexible. For example, in the step event, you can easily do something like direction=point_direction(x,y,par_player.x,par_player.y)-90. I don't see that sort of thing happening in the timeline every step without taking grueling and tedious measures.

All I do is use a variable to tell what phase (attack/spell) they're on, and each one is controlled by a timer that increments every step, and a "subphase" tracker that represents the current style (moving, shooting bullets, choosing a position, etc). The downside? I keep everything in one script, though in other games I separate them.
