Prompts the article to despawn, but not immediately deleting it. Using this on a custom article only sets its destroyed variable to true, meaning the article might not be able to be destroyed.

Example, called from update.gml:

// This code attmpts to destroy the closest kragg rock to the player:
var near = instance_nearest(x, y, asset_get("rock_obj"));
article_destroy(near);


Sets character-related UI sprites and sounds, such as the victory theme or their HUD icon.

Uses the ▼ following indexes

Example, called from load.gml:

set_ui_element( UI_WIN_THEME, sound_get( "custom" ));

Returns the resulting amount of hitstun a player would get if they were hit with the specified stats. Note that hitstun is not hitstop; Hitstun is how long the player remains inactionable after being hit.

Example, called from article1_hit.gml:

// This simulates hitstun in an article as if it were a player, to be used elsewhere:
hitstun = get_hitstun_formula(damage, knockback_adj, 1.0, enemy_hitboxID.damage, enemy_hitboxID.kb_value, enemy_hitboxID.kb_scale);
