Im trying to totally eliminate the last swing in lukes combo, but so far its not working to well. Anyone have any ideas?

okay. in combos everything the jedi does with a sabre in his hand is part of the combo. Each action he does is a "state".
If you want to edit the attacks look in the combo for

State("ATTACK1")

Now, at the end of state it will say the something like the below.

Transition("ATTACK2");
{
If()
{
TimeStart(5, "Frames");
TimeEnd(12, "Frames");
Posture("Stand");
Button("Fire", "Press");
}
}

That tells the combo to go to ATTACK2.

You get it? So if you wanted the luke combo to not do his 3rd attack get rid of Transition("ATTACK3"); line.

Ok, Ill try that.

Ok, that worked, yay! Thanks, but there is a gap between combos now. Its like this:

attack 1a, attack 1b, SPACE OF ABOUT 1 SEC., attack 1a, etc.

Is there any way I can make the transition from the end of 1b to idle faster or something?

Yah that space is annoying. Try this-
In ATACK2 add that transition line (ill post it below) and have it transition to attack 1 (so its like one big loop of attacks)

Transition("ATTACK1")
{
If()
{
TimeStart(7, "Frames");
TimeEnd(17, "Frames");
Posture("Stand");
Button("Fire", "Press");
}
}

that should work
