This will set the power damage to zero, but still allow the hazard to hit an enemy. We use this for the fire/ice weakness spells in empyrean_campaign (ids 203/204 in powers/categories/enemy.txt). To slow enemies, you'll need to add a post_effect like this:
The possible number of combinations of armor and weapons is too large for us to render them as one single spritesheet per configuration. So instead, we split the player's spritesheet up by body part: main (swords/wands), off (bows/shields), feet, legs, hands, chest, and head. These individual parts are then layered based on which direction the player is facing. The layering order for each direction is in flare-game/mods/fantasycore/engine/hero_layers.txt. For reference, the direction of "6" is the player facing the camera, and the directions increment as the player turns clockwise.
The script that generates our translation files grabs all of the lines that start with "text=" in our cutscene files. The developer names are part of that, so the script grabs them. Maybe that's a good thing for languages that don't use Latin characters at all?
Ah, I forgot to add the force field power as a melee-range ability for the necromancers. I'll fix that.
I think it's fine for War Cry to negate the knockback effect of the force field. The force field still does damage, and the lack of knockback actually makes it more dangerous. Getting knocked back reduces the effective rate at which you take damage by pushing you out of the hazard's range.
You can safely leave trait_elemental out, as it only affects powers that do damage.

I'm not a lawyer, but that sounds correct to me.
I'm not aware of any real guide for making Flare games, but here are some resources that may help:
Wow! There's so much detail in such a small scene.
Incredible work, Ateo88.

It looks like we hadn't updated the engine.pot and data.pot files in some time. That's why Paused and Continue were missing. It should be corrected now on the git repo (https://github.com/clintbellanger/flare-engine/commit/55d4b5a22be69349fa...).
