I know this character isn't being updated anymore, but I found that the AI doesn't recover properly with FSpecial, leading to easy KOs if you knock her off the stage by enough distance. I have tweaked the code locally in my downloaded folder and the recovery is fixed now. Replace ai_update with this the new code just presses the special button and avoids cancelling the recovery.

While experimenting with the "Custom WS Alts Buddy" by VMan_2002, I discovered that the current colors for Lilac's yellows in the color script is incorrect. This causes it's recoloring to not work.

The current range is:
set_color_profile_slot_range(2, 2, 14, 20);

But it should actually be:
set_color_profile_slot_range(2, 2, 49, 35);

Just changing this in the color script fixed it for me. Idk if you still care about maintaining Lilac, just thought I'd let you know.

Any updates in the works?

What I will say is only about this page. Canonically, Sash Lilac is not her full name anymore It has been confirmed by the creator of Freedom Planet that Sash the Hedgehog and Lilac the Dragon are different characters. They were once considered one and the same, but not anymore.

I love Freedom planet so this is a blessing~ I'd love to see Milla and Carol one day!

I suggest to make her sprites as size as sonic and make all her sprites and potrait looks more belong to roa (add black outline to her sprites, better potrait for css and result screen, etc.). Its's still nice somehow. Thx btw.

Orcane has seen her before.

I don't think her uspecial should lead her into a special fall

Awesome work, I'm so glad to see that this is a thing. Only thing I'd suggest is making her UStrong a multi-hit, like in her game, and having it rise just a bit higher. All in all, a ton of fun!

Needs a kirby copy function

Should've been FP2 Lilac

Any chance of her getting a unique win music? Because this is fantastic work.

@Kragg_64 It now works as it does in the actual game. Tbh I wasn't expecting that feature to be missed

what happened last update. why can we not bounce of the ground? This character is still fun but something is missing

@Zwataketa
1 - You do have a point

2 - The reason why it cancels into cyclone is simply because it's her double jump. On the ground it does her normal jump. And I really enjoy the dash->cyclone transition for some reason :P

3 - Honestly I haven't played Freedom Planet in a while and forgot how it worked, thought it bounced on every wall. But the accidentally killing yourself was sort of intended as an added risk
You can pretty much recover from anywhere using that dash (while having super armor, mind you) so I thought there should at least be some risk of using it.
Also you can always stop the dash by pressing special again, which leads you to pratfall. I should probably write that somewhere...

I'm thinking of making it continue horizontally when hitting the floor as it works in the game, and maybe do a walljump instead of bouncing when hitting a wall if you're holding the jump button.

A few ideas on how to improve Side-B:
-Lilac can't go directly up or down with dragon boost in Freedom Planet, so why can she here?, might be better for her to only do sides and diagonals. Just something to consider.
-instead of doing a cyclone when jumping from a Dragon Boost, how about make her do a jump that creates a spark, like in FP2? This also plays into the next idea:
-instead of bouncing off the walls wildly with Dragon Boost, why not make it so collision with a wall makes her automatically jump and create the shockwave? Collision with ceilings or the ground can still make her bounce though. (mostly bringing this up because 1. this is roughly how it works in Freedom Planet and 2. it's a little too easy to accidentally kill yourself with the bounce, even with the ability to "brake" with a jump)

OH SHOOT MY BAD THEN SORRY

@Thiricola The hair is drawn separate from the character and those dont show up in playtesting.
(Now if it's also not working inside a match, then something went very wrong)

also found out her double jump forgets about her longer strands of hair

:(

@Thiricola Fixed!

the walking, dashing, and running animations vaporize her uhhhh longer strands of hair, kinda off putting and being nitpicky but it's a bit weird seeing that

I have fundamental issues with double jump having a hitbox.

@Lolice Thank you so much! I'll try to fix the dash when I have time.
About the sprites however, unless someone else does a better job, they're pretty much staying that way. Sprites aren't my thing

You've done well. The Tim Tams Currency Exchange Program will consider your inclusion.

Even though those are some CRUSTY sprites...
This is a nearly PERFECT adaptation of Lilac.
My only problem is that the dragon dash defaults right for some reason and not the one you're facing. You can aim it, but it's so disorienting if you're used to how it works in freedom planet.

@hankthetank
Mostly two reasons:
1 - Since no character actually says anything during a game I thought adding voicelines for cyclone or other things would end up feeling odd.
2 - Procrastination
I still want to change fspecial's sound and add a voice for the taunt (which I could have done by now but oh well)

why is there still no sounds from freedom planet

can you do the dog too please?

Thank GOD someone did it

I have to say this character feels great to play, keep up the good work!

@Vessalius Yep, that falls in the "Balancing" category that I haven't given much thought yet. Adding a cooldown right now!

although the rest of the kit is very enjoyable, i especially love her bair, current nspecial, and upstrong, feels really fluid and juggly

her down b seems kinda toxic. Knock your opponent off, heal for 15%, kill them, another 15%, big stage and you disengage, another 15%. Seems really win more and really frustrating

Oh man, was just about to do Lilac myself but you beat me to the punch. As the workshop feature has barley been out i didn't expect much but it's great so far. It's definlty kinda rough but it has about what I was thinking that lilac should work in the game.

think of that as a safety jump into a combo

Mayor of Smashville you can just jump out of side b but she must be on the grownd at the start of the move

good start

right now side b is kinda broken. it goes on for so long that itll take you offscreen, even if you hit the opponent.
