Uncontrolled flow¶
This is one of the flow of Update which happens when Update delegates most controls to an action coroutine.
This flow happens if action or inevent is true which means that an action coroutine or an EventDialogue took control of the battle flow. This means that Update relegated its control and it features a very reduced logic compared to a controlled flow. It is meant to be entered temporarily where control will eventually be given back to a controlled flow with the exception of terminal cases which ends or retries the battle.
The main feature of this flow is less UI being shown as they are mostly disabled.
Here are all the logic included in this flow.
RefreshEXP¶
If the oldexp value doesn't match the current expreward, RefreshEXP is called. This method manages the visual rendering of the currently cumulated EXP and the different orbs that composes it. expreward is the actual EXP cumulated so far while oldexp is the last value observed since the last RefreshEXP. It will also create expholder if it wasn't created already.
HP UI refresh¶
RefreshEnemyHP is called every 3 frames. It should be noted that in this flow, this will always results in the hpbar of the enemies to be disabled. This means this refresh is less useful here, but it's more useful in a controlled flow.
UpdateSwitchIcon¶
UpdateSwitchIcon is called. It should be noted that in this flow, this will always results in the switchicon to be disabled. This means this refresh is less useful here, but it's more useful in a controlled flow.
Blocking updates¶
This section happens only when all the following are fufilled:
enemyis true (we are in the player phase)ineventis false (no EventDialogue is in progress)- The message lock is released (covers cases like Tattle)
GetBlock is called here which updates blockcooldown and commandsuccess according to the current blocking state. Consult the GetBlock documentation to learn more about how the blocking system works.
This is the only logic that is exclusive to an uncontrolled flow.
