Combat Core & Juice

GameEvents plus a tiny SoundManager stub, so every later event and sound call compiles. The plumbing that keeps the rest of the course green.

The single method every hit routes through. Written with the 6-arg signature so both AI callers and the Hurtbox line up against it.

An Area3D that reads a hit dictionary and forwards it into take_damage. The name-swap gotcha, taught exactly as the project ships it.

The weapon Area3D that detects an overlap and deals damage once per target, with the double-hit de-dupe bug taught head-on.

A swing you can feel: enable the hitbox only during the active frames against a practice dummy, then return to Idle.

Damage reads the player's strength stat live, so better gear and level-ups hit harder. Wires combat to the Course 3 StatsComponent.

Swings spend stamina and it regenerates. The resource that gates how aggressive you can be.

Roll a crit off crit_chance, multiply by crit_damage, and flag it so crit visuals fire. Real damage variance.

Incoming damage is softened by the target's defense stat. The other half of the damage equation.

The dummy pops white on every hit and restores. The first visible feel upgrade on a working fight.

The single entry point for enemy hit logic before death takes over. The dummy becomes a real enemy that dies.

Buffer presses into a three-hit chain that resets on missed timing.

A heavier swing that multiplies base damage and chips more poise.

Hold to block, then time the parry window to negate hits entirely.

The stance pool that chips on light hits and breaks on heavy ones, opening a stagger window.

Freeze time and shake the screen to make every hit feel weighty. The combat finale.
