| | Information on game controls are split into the following sections. |
|
| |
|
| ==Control Layouts== | | ==Movement== |
| ===Gamepad control layouts===
| | ''Instructions on how to move your Virtuaroid around.''<br> |
| ====Layout A: Rotation on right stick - Default button mapping====
| | [[Virtual-On Oratorio Tangram/Controls/Movement|{{big|Movement Control}}]] |
| This is the default pad control layout. You can map another turbo button to R3 to turbo rotate easily. However, rotation on right stick is not ideal. For some advanced techniques you want constant access to rotation while having access to everything else. As L1 and R1 are unmapped it’s recommended to map something on them, like turbo buttons or macros.

| | ----- |
| Default layout but the shoulder buttons are mapped to left & right rotation. One of the ideal mappings as all actions are available without switching finger positions. Map L3 or Back/Share button to Left Turbo to enable Both Turbo inputs (only used with one character).

| ====Layout B2: Rotation on L2/R2 - ‘Armored Core’ style==== | | ===Control setup & system=== |
| Same as above but swap Rotation and Weapon mappings.
| | ''Information on controller configurations & how controller inputs are written in this wiki.''<br> |
| Possible improvement by having weapon inputs on buttons instead of triggers (more sensitive).
| | [[Virtual-On Oratorio Tangram/Controls/Layouts|Control Layouts]]<br> |
| | | [[Virtual-On Oratorio Tangram/Notation#Player_inputs | Input Notation]] |
| ====Option C: Turbo on L1/R1, Rotation on Right Stick and/or Square & Circle====
| |
| More easy to push both turbo buttons at the same time if needed. Closer to Twinstick setting. For Specineff specific advanced techniques if layout B isn’t working for you.
| |
| | |
| ===Twin-Stick control layout===
| |
| The default layout from arcades. No room to switch around when using a Twin-Stick apart from swapping Turbo and Weapon buttons.
| |
| In console ports of the game the twinstick control layout can used on a gamepad with stick movement corresponding to the left and right analog sticks. But it’s difficult to use the analog sticks similar to the original 8-way arcade control, so most players stick to the pad configuration.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Movement Control==
| |
| Movement is the most central part of the game and its core mechanics are universal to all characters.<br>
| |
| ''Note: All movement speed on the horizontal plane is slowed down the closer you are to your opponent.'' | |
| | |
| ===Basic/VO-OM movement options===
| |
| Core movement options that were present since the first Virtual-On game, Operation Moongate.
| |
| | |
| ====Walking====
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| In a neutral state on the ground, move the d-pad or left stick in wanted direction.<br>
| |
| Move a stick in a direction with the other one is neutral. Or both sticks together.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| Your character will walk around in 8 available directions.
| |
| Walking is a truly ‘neutral’ state, in that you can perform any action out of it.
| |
| | |
| ====Ground Dash====
| |
| '''Input:''' press a '''''Turbo Button'' while holding a walking input in any direction.'''
| |
|
| |
| Your character will start a dash in the given direction, moving faster than walking. Dash directions have differing speeds and have different accompanying dash attacks.<br>
| |
| Generally forward dashes move the fastest while backwards directions are slow.
| |
| | |
| *'''Dashes can be directly cancelled into a Jump''', this is a common technique.
| |
| *Pressing a Turbo Button during a dash will cause a '''''dash cancel''''', ending the dash. ''Dash cancels'' have a short recovery formed by a sliding animation which can only be cancelled into a '''''Jump'''''.
| |
| | |
| ====Jump====
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| Jump button. Hold to increase height.<br>
| |
| '''4-6'''. Sticks apart from eachother: left stick to the left and right stick to the right.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| Character goes airborne and rapidly gains height. Holding the input will increase jump height.
| |
| *'''During the rising part of a jump your camera will automatically turn to face the opponent'''.
| |
| *'''All ground movement options can be cancelled into a jump'''.
| |
| | |
| ====Jump Cancel====
| |
| ''During the rising part of a jump..''<br>
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| Crouch button.<br>
| |
| '''6-2'''. Sticks towards eachother: left stick to the right and right stick to the left.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| Your character quickly falls back down to the ground. If performed quickly camera also rapidly rotates to face the opponent.
| |
| *'''Can be performed immediately after starting a jump''': this is the usual way to re-target your opponent in Virtual-On.
| |
| *If Jump into Jump Cancel is performed quickly the sequence is so fast that you never see your character leave the ground.
| |
| *Generally during a dash, performing a jump cancel is a faster way to go back into a neutral state than a Dash cancel.
| |
| | |
| ====Guard====
| |
| ''While in Close Combat range (Double Lock)..''<br>
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| Hold crouch button while in melee range, or held during landing.<br>
| |
| '''6-2'''. Sticks towards eachother while in melee range.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| Character guards while stationary, preventing them from hitting. Guard is readied instantly and has no recovery. Guarding ends upon release of crouch input or performing some other action.
| |
| *If crouch is held while falling from a jump you will immediately guard on touching the ground.
| |
| *The requirements of a hold input can be avoided by performing a quick jump cancel or quickstep.
| |
| | |
| ===VO-OT movement options===
| |
| Movement options introduced in the second Virtual-On game, Oratorio Tangram. Central to the flow of the game but clearly built upon the previous set.
| |
| | |
| ====Vertical Turn / Watari Dash====
| |
| ''During a Ground Dash or Air Dash..''<br>
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| Release directional input to neutral, then move in a new direction.<br>
| |
| Release directional inputs and move one or both sticks in wanted direction.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| Your current dash direction will change to the given direction.
| |
| | |
| *Allows you to perform attacks matching a different dash direction direction at will, regardless of how you were initially moving. For example you can be dashing to the side, then suddenly switch directions and perform an aggressive frontal attack.
| |
| *Gives you the ability to move in more complicated patterns without stopping the dash.
| |
| | |
| Switches between certain directions are not allowed, for example forward (8) to back (2). In these cases quickly input an intermediary direction like horizontal (6/4) before moving to the final one.
| |
| | |
| ====Air Dash====
| |
| '''Input:''' press a '''''Turbo Button'' while holding a direction during the rising part of a jump.'''
| |
| | |
| Begins a dash similar to the ground dash at your current height in the air.
| |
| | |
| *Accompanied by a set of air dash attacks that vary based on the direction.
| |
| *Vertical Turn / Watari Dash is still available.
| |
| *You can cancel the air dash by pushing a Turbo button again for an '''''air dash cancel'''''. Performing an ''air dash cancel'' puts you into a falling state. This is the only way to cancel an air dash and commonly used for aerial mobility.
| |
| | |
| ====Fast fall & Delayed fall====
| |
| ''When in the air in a falling state..''<br>
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| Input '''Crouch button''' for fast fall. Hold '''Jump button''' to delay your fall.<br>
| |
| Hold '''Crouch/JC (6-4)''' to fast fall. Hold '''Jump input (4-6)''' to delay your fall.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| '''Fast fall''' will make you fall to the ground quickly. It will continue until you release the input. Almost always used as it will both make you harder to hit during the fall.
| |
| | |
| '''Delayed fall''' has a maximum hold duration. You can still keep performing it repeatedly until you hit the ground. Delayed fall can used to mix up landing timing. If the opponent misjudges the situation they might miss their attack and give you an opening.<br>
| |
| Don’t get predictable using '''delayed fal'''l as you can be hit with more attacks than normal.
| |
| | |
| You can stop these actions at any point and mix between the two.
| |
| | |
| ====Quick Step====
| |
| ''Close Combat range only (Double Lock).''<br>
| |
| '''Input:''' Release a Turbo button and immediately input a movement direction.
| |
| | |
| A special movement option available in close range. You can quickstep in 8 directions. Your character will perform a large step motion relative to your opponent (rather than the camera).<br>
| |
| Left and right quicksteps make you rotate around your target.
| |
| | |
| *Can be cancelled into any other movement actions or Guard.
| |
| *A movement method that simultaneously evades and keeps track of your target.
| |
| *In some situations can be performed with the same input as a dash (easier): on landing
| |
| | |
| ====Double Jump====
| |
| ''During the rising part of a jump..''<br>
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| Jump button. Hold to increase height.<br>
| |
| '''4-6'''. Sticks apart from eachother: left stick to the left and right stick to the right.
| |
| |-
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| The same rules apply as to a normal jump.
| |
| | |
| *To gain maximum overall height, hold the first jump input until the last moment and do the same with your double jump.
| |
| *In contrast the speed of jumps decelerates as you hold the input. So to gain a burst of height as quickly as possible, double tap jump.
| |
| | |
| ===Rotation control===
| |
| The Virtual-On series has controls for turning your mech to the left and right on the horizontal plane. Some control over rotation is almost always accessible.<br>
| |
| Rotating via manual control is used to maintain vision & lock-on on your opponent, aim attacks or fine-tune your movement.
| |
| | |
| ====Standard rotation====
| |
| ''Available while Stationary, Walking, Dashing or Airborne.''<br>
| |
| {| style="width: 600px;"
| |
| |- style="vertical-align:top;text-align:left"
| |
| | style="width: 16%;"|
| |
| '''Input-Pad:'''<br>
| |
| '''Input-TS:'''
| |
| | style="width: 84%;"|
| |
| '''Default''': Move Right stick to the left or right. '''Custom''': Rotate Left & Rotate Right buttons.<br>
| |
| '''8-2''' to rotate to your left. '''2-8''' to rotate to your right. Combinations with diagonals also work.
| |
| |-
| |
| |} | |
| | |
| Rotate to the left or right.
| |
| | |
| ====Turbo rotation====
| |
| ''Available while Stationary, Airborne or performing a rotatable Special Attack.''
| |
| '''Input:''' Left or Right Rotation while holding a Turbo button
| |
| | |
| Rotate with increased speed.
| |
| | |
| *While in neutral or in the air, rotation speed slows down when the reticle is close to your opponent. During dash rotation the position of the opponent has no effect.
| |
| *Rotating during a ground dash changes your facing without affecting the current dash. Dash direction changes using Vertical Turn will match the current screen rotation.
| |
| *Rotating during an air dash changes your movement direction and makes it curve.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Wakeup options==
| |
| ''Actions you can perform after being knocked down.''<br>
| |
| After getting knocked down the player has a few ways of varying wakeup timing to get back into the fight. Despite these options the neutral (safe) wakeup option is almost always used.<br>
| |
| Inputs for wakeup options start counting once your VR stops completely in place after the knockdown.
| |
| | |
| ===Safe wakeup speedup - general option===
| |
| Input: mash movement and rotation inputs<br>
| |
| Effect: knockdown duration decreases drastically<br>
| |
| Player is invincible after wakeup, and nothing cancels this invincibility. Basically you get a free move after waking up and the enemy needs to respect this ability.
| |
| | |
| Gamepad input method: mash directional and rotation inputs.<br>
| |
| Twinstick: Jump input must be avoided, so for example spin the other stick and move the other one up and down, or rotate on the inner side.
| |
| | |
| ===Unsafe fast wakeup===
| |
| Input: attack or jump<br> | |
| Effect: interrupt knockdown in a single input
| |
| | |
| This should basically never be used as it is only a couple frames faster than safe wakeup. If the enemy is trying to set up delayed attacks & traps without pressuring your wakeup at all then it can sometimes catch them off guard. (ie. they’re probably Bal-Bados or Angelan)<br>
| |
| Otherwise you lose the abilities granted by momentary invincibilty. If the opponent notices that you use this you will start taking massive damage on wakeup.
