Projectiles & Articles

2 articles

Spawned objects carry their own hitboxes. Some moves put all of their damage here and none on the fighter, so this is where their numbers live. Frames count from the article appearing, not from the input.

Notes

◆HDR replaces the vanilla animation, which changes when the move ends.

HDR replaces the animation (58 -> 74 frames).Dash Attack
HDR replaces the animation (49 -> 42 frames).Up Air

‡Animation speed changes mid-move. Frames shown are real game frames, not animation frames.

Dash Attack, Forward Smash, Neutral Air, Back Air, Down Air, Neutral Special (Cancel), Neutral Special (Air, Cancel), Back Throw

※Some values are computed at runtime and cannot be read from the script.

Computed at runtime, not shown: damage.Up Special (Air, Jump)

✕HDR removes this move’s hitboxes.

CliffEscape

⇥The hit lasts as long as the object carrying it does. Its script never closes the hitbox, so the active frames end where the article’s life runs out.

Barreljet is on the field for up to 8 frames (param_barreljet.life), which is what ends the hit -- its script never does. Hitting something usually ends it sooner.Barreljet: Fly
Explosion is on the field for up to 10 frames (param_explosion.life), which is what ends the hit -- its script never does. Hitting something usually ends it sooner.Explosion: Fly

↛The move creates something this site has no table for — an item, or an article with no hitbox of its own. The name shown is the engine’s own, not a heading to go looking for.

Damage comes from item_peanuts — the engine's name for it, and there is no table for it here.Neutral Special (Shoot), Neutral Special (Air, Shoot)
Damage comes from item_banana — the engine's name for it, and there is no table for it here.Down Special, Down Special (Air)

•Other notes.

Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it with 9 frames of landing lag rather than the usual special-fall landing.Dash Attack
FAF here is the animation's length: the motion list sets no cancel frame for this action, so the true actionable frame may be earlier.AttackS4Charge, AttackHi4Charge, AttackLw4Charge, Neutral Special (Start), Neutral Special (Charge), Neutral Special (Danger), Neutral Special (Air, Start), Neutral Special (Air, Charge), Neutral Special (Air, Danger), Side Special (Start), Side Special (Air, Start), Side Special (Air, Jump), Up Special (Start), Up Special (Charge), Up Special (ChargeF), Up Special (ChargeB), Up Special (Air, Start), Up Special (Air, Charge), Up Special (Air, ChargeF), Up Special (Air, ChargeB), DownDamageU, DownDamageU3, DownDamageD, DownDamageD3, PassiveWall, PassiveWallJump, Pass, CliffJump1, CliffJump2
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it with 4 frames of landing lag rather than the usual special-fall landing. The code names the move rather than this animation, so the figure may belong to another of its segments.Neutral Special (Air, Start), Neutral Special (Air, Shoot), Neutral Special (Air, Blow), Neutral Special (Air, Cancel)
Held: the animation loops, so this ends on release or on a state change rather than on a fixed frame.Side Special (Stick), Side Special (Air, Fall), CatchWait, DamageFall, DownWaitU, DownWaitD, CliffWait
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it in Side Special (Landing), which recovers in 26 frames rather than the 36 this move would otherwise run.Side Special (Air, Jump)
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it in Side Special (KickLanding), which recovers in 18 frames rather than the 32 this move would otherwise run.Side Special (Air, Kick)
Land cancels: touching the ground during this move ends it in Side Special (Landing), which recovers in 26 frames and is the only way out of it.Side Special (Air, Fall)

FAF is HDR's runtime calculation rather than a param: the air dodge stalls for 28 frames and ends once the fighter has fallen 35 units, so it follows their gravity and fall speed.Air Dodge, Air Dodge (Directional)
