FixedUpdate

The FixedUpdate of BattleControl contains logic relating to updating the choicevine, cursor and the color of the actor's sprites visually. It also updates turncooldown's decreases. It does nothing however in a terminal flow.

choicevine updates

This section only applies if choicevine exists which is after StartBattle called CreateVine.

• If currentaction is BaseAction (the main vine action menu):
  • All children of basevine (which are all the actual vines object) has their scale set to a lerp from the existing one to (2.5, 2.5, 2.5) with a factor of 0.15
  • UpdateRotation is called which updates the y angle of the choicevine given the current option. The new y angle is a LerpAngle from the existing one to -(360 / vineoption * option) - 24.0 * (1.0 - the horizontal viewport position of the choicevine)
• Otherwise:
  • UpdateRotation is called which updates the y angle of the choicevine given the current lastoption. The new y angle is a LerpAngle from the existing one to -(360 / vineoption * lastoption) - 24.0 * (1.0 - the horizontal viewport position of the choicevine)
  • All children of basevine (which are all the actual vines object) has their scale set to a lerp from the existing one to (2.5, 1.5, 2.5) with a factor of 0.15 unless the vine index matches lastoption in which case, it's the same, but the y scale is 2.5 (2.0 if currentaction is SelectPlayer)
• If we are in an uncontrolled flow, the choicevine position is set to offscreen at (0.0, 999.0, 0.0)

cursor updates

This section only applies if cursor exists which is after StartBattle called CreateCursor.

The cursor is only rendered on screen if we are in a controlled flow while currentaction isn't BaseAction (the main vine action menu) and itemarea is SingleAlly or SingleEnemy. Otherwise, its position is set to offscreen at (0.0, 100.0, 0.0) When it needs to be rendered, the cursor position setting logic depends on currentaction.

SelectEnemy

The position is set to a lerp from the existing one to the actor's battleentity position + an offset vector with a factor of 0.2 unless the cursor y position is above 20.0 where the factor is 1.0 (instant) instead. The actor is avaliabletargets[option] if currentchoice is among the following (it's enemydata[option] otherwise):

• Attack
• Skill
• Strategy
• Item

As for the offset vector, it's Vector3.up if the actor's position is Underground. If it's not, it's the actor's cursoroffset + Vector3.up * the actor's battleentity.height.

SelectPlayer

The position is set to a lerp from the existing one to playerdata[option].battleentity position + playerdata[option].cursoroffset with a factor of 0.2 unless the cursor y position is above 20.0 where the factor is 1.0 (instant) instead

turncooldown

If the field is above 0.0, it is decremented by 1.0.

Actor's visual updates

UpdateEntities is called only if halfload is true which means most of StartBattle is done as it guarantees all actors are fully loaded.
