G12 Fade away

• Gothic engine has most likely unfinished built-in feature which fades away dead Npcs and removes their bodies

• this feature uses API function C_Npc_IsSummoned to recognize which creatures (I expect mostly summoned) can be faded away

• you can however use oCNpc_StartFadeAway(self); on any Npc that you want to fade away. (for example from ZS_Dead state, or from whenever you want 😄)

  

⚠️ Warning ⚠️ do not use with hero game will crash if you call it with player.

Init function: G12_FadeAway_Init();

API file

You can use these extra functions to work with fade away feature:

//fadeAwayTimeF is Ikarus float miliseconds mkf(8000) - 8 seconds
void oCNpc_StartFadeAway(var int slfInstance); //Npc will fade away (default engine time 5s)
void oCNpc_StartFadeAway_Ext(var int slfInstance, var int fadeAwayTimeF); //Npc will fade away, but you can specify time by yourself
int oCNpc_IsFadingAway(var int slfInstance); //returns true if Npc is fading away
