Any possible way to replicate a Hitdef in a custom state?

imagine this, your character has been hit by a move that puts you in a custom state, this custom state should have:
- the same animation your previous state earlier; - done
- it should have the possibility to hit opponents, as close as the previous state normally would have; - character in custom state now hits opponents, but it's not close to the original hitdefs, want to replicate them as best as i can, but so far i have not knowledge on how to do this, is this possible?
- it should take away a tiny bit of life; - done

Interesting............but 98% of times when you are being put in P2's/P4's MUGEN custom state(s), your movetype becomes "H", and you know HitDef does not work when movetype=H......

Can you please put your MUGEN code here for me to study and test to see?

Perhaps you might try this :
- detect whether your MUGEN character is being put in P2's/P4's MUGEN custom state(s) or not, by using your MUGEN way (i.e. VarSet with GameTime in both Statedef -2 & Statedef -3)
- whenever there is such a MUGEN detection, try to make your MUGEN character invisible
- call a MUGEN Helper that makes use of your MUGEN character's PrevStateNo

I say this MUGEN way because I think a MUGEN Helper is the best thing to replicate its Root's state
