Always hit by rollout #92

Hi, I'm able to beat the bot consistently with Jigglypuff by jumping above the stage (the bot doesn't come after me), charging rollout, and hitting the bot until he gets ko'd.

Thanks for the bug report! Glad you got everything up and running.

Rollout is such a weird move... I don't think there's an elegant want to handle it. Probably will just have to be an ugly exception to the rules. Jiggs is not completely inactionable during rollout (she can change directions) in a way that is unlike every other attack.

That smash DI is awesome though, right? :)

cdubthecoolcat commented 7 years ago

I was thinking the bot could just grab puff out of rollout? I haven't looked much into the code so I don't really know how it works.

altf4 commented 7 years ago

That... might actually be possible. My only concern is that Jiggs might be able to turn around in time before the grab comes out. Kinda depends on how the math works out. Not sure yet.

Why not just have a clause for defense to shine her?

altf4 commented 6 years ago

Does shine outreach rollout?

Even if it does... the spacing is hard. SmashBot is better at timing than it is spacing. Something with more range like grab, or fsmash would be WAY easier. And you can pivot into it too, so that's easy to do out of a dash dance.

Honestly, it's not hard to do, I just haven't spent much time on this lately.
