Super Naruto: Clash of Ninja 4/Training Modes

1P Training

1P Training Mode in SCON4 loads both characters with full chakra and a couple of options available in the training mode menu (accessible by pressing START). These options are:

• 2P Action: Chooses the action the Training Mode Dummy will perform from the following: 2P Control (default), Approach and Throw, Substitution Jutsu, Tech Roll Recovery, Quick Stun Recovery, COMP Difficulty X (1-4), Record and Record Counter.
• Counter Hit: Allows for setting forced Counter Hits ON or OFF.
• HP Recovery: Allows for setting automatic HP Gauge refill ON or OFF.
• Chakra Recovery: Allows for setting automatic Chakra Gauge refill ON or OFF.
• Guard: Allows setting the Dummy's ability to block ON or OFF.
• Show Gauges: Determines if the Health Bars are present (ON) or hidden (OFF).
• Show Inputs: Determines if Input History is set to ON or OFF
• Strings: Shows the list of strings accessible to the selected character.
• Character Select: Sends players back to the Character Select Screen. Does not require confirmation.
• Quit: Sends players back to the Main Menu. Requires confirmation.

Debug Training

Through the research of dataminers for GNT4, the entire Debug Menu that the developers used for debugging the game was found left in the game files, just inaccessible via normal means. In SCON4, you are able to select "Debug Training" to initialize a version of training mode where you are able to access the Debug Menu and take a closer look at the inner workings of the game in real time such as hitboxes, priority flags, animation timings, character states and more.

Navigating Menus

Pressing the START button while in Debug Training will pull up the Debug menu instead of the regular Training Mode menu. From here, you can use the Control Stick to navigate the list of menus that appear on the screen, and press START on any of them to enter the sub-menu for that item; once there, moving the Control Stick Left or Right changes the value on-screen for that specific field.

The listed items are:

CONTINUE - returns back to the game.
SCREEN - opens up technical display settings.
GAME - opens up technical game and graphical settings.
MEMORY - non-functional
TASK - non-functional
GOBJ - non-functional

Pressing Z + START while highlighting CONTINUE will force quit the game and return to the Title Screen.

Flag categories

• AF: Action State flags
  • STAND - This action is in the default stance on this frame (No crush)

  • THROWOK - The character is in a throwable state
  • DEFOK - The character's attack will have Auto Guard (in conjunction with DEF flag)
• NF: Direction/Generic flags
  • AUTODIR - The "tracking" flag; during this move, the character will automatically pivot towards the opponent in an attempt to align their attack with them if they are off-axis. Specifics of "tracking" can be read more about here.

ACT

Shows PLAYER port character's current action state.

ATK

Shows information about the attack performed by the PLAYER port character (such as damage, angle, guard damage, etc.)

LIFE

Shows PLAYER port character's total (and current) health, guard bar, and meter.

HIT

Similar to ATK, but in regards to the attack's victim.

ATK2

Displays precise frame data i.e. startup/active/recovery frames, blockstun. A Gecko code is required to view the frame advantage as well.

• H = Number of True Startup frames (number of frames before the hitbox appears, important to note as pages on this wiki utilize FAF)
• J = Number of Active Frames (number of frames where a hitbox is active)
• K = Number of Recovery Frames (number of frames left after hitbox disappears before the character returns to neutral)
• PW = Damage

The following numbers were programmed by Eighting for Bloody Roar, and may not be accurate for GNT.

• PW( ) = Counterhit Damage
  • Gecko code turns this number into frame advantage
• NG = Light Guard blockstun (most blocking in GNT)
• (BG) = Heavy Guard blockstun (autoguard attacks in GNT use Heavy Guard)
• DM = Hitstun
• CT = Counterhit Hitstun
• [Last character] = Attribute
  • H = High
  • M = Middle
  • L = Low
