"rule" Tag⚓︎

.anm2 files

For every .anm2-file specified you need to create 4 .anm2-files, one for every bomb size: mini-bomb from Scatter Bombs, mini-bomb from Scatter Bombs with Mr. Mega, normal size bomb and Mr. Mega-size bomb For example, when you specify bomb.anm2, you actually require the files bomb0.anm2, bomb1.anm2, bomb2.anm2 and bomb3.anm2.

Rule precedence

The rules you include in this file will be listed after the default rules of the respective variant. Bomb costumes will be applied from the tags within these rules (i.e. body, front, etc.) The tag of the last applicable rule that has it will always be the one to be applied. Example: Having the Items Blood Bombs and Bomber Boy will cause placed bombs to look like Blood bombs, as both rules specify the tag body and the rule for Blood Bombs is listed below the rule for Bomber Boy.
