Hey, I like the style of your RPG, but heres a hint If you want to make soemthing GOOD, (this is for future develoupment), dont enabel the mouse at all. Mouse with games SUUUUCKS, no offense if you like World of Warcraft, but look, WoW has NOOOOTHHHIIINNNGGG on using a controller or disabling the mouse, the hotkeys are boring...


Anyway back to the subject lol, yeah if you wanna make a game good, use nice graphics, disable the mouse, and use nice audio (But it dosnt have to be next gen stuff, it can be pixeljunk for all I care ) As long as you have good gameplay.

I like your RPG Style thing, it's cool! + 1 point.

[Lexcondran]

lol im working on it but graphics come last since i suck with graphics lol people still think it was me that made those
extremely nice looking things in my art thing//you can tell what it mine and whats not XD
right now im working on figuring out how to get the speed to work=//
speed stat works only when the player has lower speed than enemy.
i was thinking about adding in stuff but really need to understand some elements first
Save/Load/Options pretty much//Region areas i cant figure out how to load them without messing up
Shops and stuff im really just trying to make a thing so everyone can make their own Rpg type thing

Hey Lex,
sry for asking such a n00bish question but... where did you set to go to the "Game Over" screen when 3 enemys get killed?
I wanted to fool around a bit with "random monster spawning" but testing stuff is hard if you are limited to 3 enemys only.

From what I saw it could actually be anywhere.

I'm actually surprised that you're not using the "Global Code"...
Again, I'm a noob hence I might not know certain limitations.
However, this is looking like a "maintenance nightmare" since you need to remember everything, otherwise, you won't find anything anymore after a while.

Please, do not consider this as criticsm... I actually like the "simplicity" but well thought design of your demo!
It looks like a perfect playground for beginners like me...

If you don't want to talk about it in this thread, I'm also okay with having a talk over IM.
Thanks,
Kynetic

[Lexcondran]

its suppose to only say game over if your die.
i was thinking of adding a //description to practically every line of coding to help people know.
its besides the fact that im working on the fighting style by making another game thats complex in the combat
thing such as push button to change attack style/1 button attacks/2 switch between Magic/Melee/Range
and 3 elements/ 9 spells to choose from in custom thing and the special sheild/heal thing lol [10 spells really]
im brainstorming the coding in a game then ill add it to the game removing that stupid thing i made for fighting.
it will make sense once i use hblades advice and remove mouse to make mouse less menus. i just need art and regions learning to make infinite regions easily/ touch the side of region and it moves view to next area .

[kynetic]

Thanks for your reply Lex.
I based my post on the fact that I ended up in the "Game Over"-screen every time the last fight was over.
I now realize that this was due to the fact that I always died at the same time as the last enemy.

After I implemented some "healing potions" and retested the whole thing it became obvious.
Well... sorry, my bad!

But at least my implementation for randomly spawned enemys is working.
Well, currently only with rats, but I guess it shouldn't be too hard to even randomize the spawned monster type.
And they do only spawn within the "maze"... took some time to figure out that they all got spawned relative to the position of my "timer"-actor.
And I thought my math skills went really bad...

The stuff you're planning sound very nice!
Keep at it!

I actually like the way you implemented the "Fighting-Style"... it has a lot of potential.
It needs some tweaking here and there, but you could actually implement different hit speed and reaction time, maybe even counter attacks.
It would feel kind of "realistic"...
If you are a fast fighter, why not taking advantage of it.
You hit the enemy twice while he is hitting you once... you might actually kill him, before he even scratches you...
These are the kind of things I think of when I see you implementation.
But, this is your game.

[Lexcondran]

lol unfortunately unlike you im not a genius XD
see i have ideas thats about it i have like no skills and only ideas on how to make a huge update to the thing like
a real time fighiting screen after you use the world area menu, also i suck with using regions cause i just dont know
it took me a long time to fix the att/def thing where it used to be that you healed the enemy if you had to much or to little
most everyone is an Artist//Scriptor//Musciscian im a superb idea dude thats my skill which is better yet not practical

[BlarghNRawr]

Not practical?
No games would exist without an "Idea dude".

[Lexcondran]

wow thanks yes...

[Lexcondran]

Upgraded Version 1.5
Combat has been redefined and upgraded
New monsters have been added
Press spacebar to attack
Click on the buttons in the middle to choose attack type.
Me=Melee red Sword
Ma=Magic blue Magic
Ra=Ranged yellow Arrow

[Lexcondran]

I updated it a bit more again
New rebalanced attributes
To start combat with monsters you must be touching them then click on them
And added new thing to have 3 save files to choose from so you can have 3 character saves
The save files are in the box and say Bob, Bob2, Bob3
im wishing to add things for the options menu and make a shop to buy stuff for inventory=Next

[Scorpion50o1]

how did you u do the 3 save slots? i wanna know for future games i might make.

[Lexcondran]

its basically just like making 1 save file
instead you just change the name of the group to save to
all globals are saved in a save group called Savefile.
then they are saved as a exterior group=bob, bob2, bob3
i have 3 save timers and 3 load timers
these timers are all n the player.
the player = at the timer destroys them while loading/saving the vars bob, bob2, bob3
they are in the variable/functions thing in the script editor menus=Savevars---Loadvars
=Click save 1,2,3 creates save timer on player
=Click load 1,2,3 creates load timer on player
[I was wanting to know how to get my inventory to work]
[i got the options menu with change char, change colors, change diff]
[i got it to where you can buy items and they have a maximum limit]
[but i cannot figure out how to equip/unequip the weapons or armor]

[Scorpion50o1]

for armor and stuff could you make variable EquipArmor1 and when = 0 its unequiped and = 1 its equiped but make diffrent variables for each part or equipment.

EquipArmor1=1 add 5 def or something around that you could do. and
EquipArmor1=0 add 0 def.

[Lexcondran]

So here is like Version 1.9 i added tons of new stuff to it= i mean it when i say alot
theres an options bar
and inventory and shops
4 new areas with a boss
dialogue/bombs/throwing knives/shurikens/swords/shields/wands/keys/potions/bows lol
Q to drop a bomb use mouse on it to drag it around
Z for shuriken, X for throwing knife
pink/blue walls are special lol its a thing
//I fixed alot of bugs or so with it
//Their are 2 color change options ofr menus.==Menu colors and Text colors its awesome
//due to bombwalls and Gray key doors there are No save zones where they make it so you dont get stuck in that area when you save/load
//the destruction of bossblocks and key doors is saved in a variable
[If you find any issues while playing the game tell me so that i can probably fix them]
Ps. Making all this stuff on my own was a huge pain in the arse and took me weeks and months cause i was lazy
Actually most of the recent updates were done this week when i actually got bored and spent my time on it lol
