'''DWN-039 Napalm Man''' is one of the 8 Robot Masters from [[Mega Man 5]] that is featured in [[Mega Man Maker]] as of version [[1.0.0]]. Napalm Man uses his signature weapon, The [[Napalm Bomb]] in combat.


He was built by [[Dr. Wily]] to protect weapon factory during Mega Man 5 events. He later came back during the events of [[Mega Man IV]], but was once again beaten.
'''Dark Man 4''' is one of the fortress bosses in ''[[Mega Man 5]]'', originating from the final stage of Proto Man's Castle. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' in version [[1.8.0]].
 
In Mega Man 5, Dark Man 4 has the ability to disguise himself as other figures, which he does to disguise as [[Proto Man]] and kidnap [[Dr. Light]], setting up the events of the game.
 
== Behavior ==
 
=== Intro ===
Dark Man 4 has a unique cutscene-esque intro depending on an option in the editor.


==Behavior==
* If the option with Proto Man is selected, he will appear as Proto Man and whistle, before Proto Man's normal whistle plays and his disguise is dropped.
Napalm Man can choose one of two attacks at random, either firing two Napalm Bombs in the air which arc towards the player's position when they were fired, or firing three missiles horizontally. After each attack Napalm Man does a large jump towards the player, and will then repeat the pattern.
* If the option with [[Mega Man]] and [[Roll]] is selected, things will play out largely the same as the first option, except the disguise will be whatever character is currently being used.
* If the option with Dark Man 4 himself is selected, Dark Man 4 will remain undisguised and taunt the player before fighting.


Unlike in Mega Man 5, Napalm Man can no longer have his AI manipulated to use a specific attack. For example, if you were close to Napalm Man, he would only fire his two Napalm Bombs, if you were far away from Napalm Man, he would only fire the three missiles. In Mega Man Maker, this was unintentionally changed, causing Napalm Man to choose either the Napalm Bombs or missiles attack randomly, but the developers decided to keep the change, as it likely made Napalm Man's AI less exploitable and predictable.
=== Battle ===
Dark Man 4 has two attacks.


==Glitches==
The first has him stand in place and fire three shots at the player. This attack can be used consecutively.
*If Napalm Man lands on [[Mega Man 6]] [[Spring|Springs]] while in his "jump state", he will remain stuck in his "jump state", unable to move or fight back, until he lands on something resembling solid ground again.


==Trivia==
The second has him fire his shields off to both sides and jump at the player. After landing, the shields will return to his side.
*Napalm Man is part of a rumor that Mega Man 5 was never released in Vietnam, due to a war involving Napalm Bombs and his stage being based on Vietnam jungles.

* Dark Man 4 is the only of the Dark Men from Mega Man 5 to have an intro. However, this intro isn't present in Mega Man Maker.
