You can control all their movement with a variable canMove

#3
Yeah, you can!

#4
Just make health actor variable and reduce it when bullet hits enemy.

#6
With your favourite image editing system and with imagination. (it's your game!)

#8
This depends on how you build your game.

Well, are you controlling jumping with canJump? If yes, you can make the canJump become 2 or 3 when collision left and right side of the wall. Then just make the jump key effect in the jump direction when you hit it when you are in the wall.

Tell me if you need more help on something. :)

(thanks for the score!)

Well, you can make a variable "karate" and make coded explanation for each move:
if (karate == 1)
{
//hand hit
}
if (karate == 2)
{
//foot hit
}
etc
etc

Then just make the actor choose the "karate" value randomly. First it chooses one value, then in animation finnish -> another random value.
That's it! :D

Well, I made a rpg story generator code for Lilmuleman.
You can make that with a timer simulator variable which counts slowly upward.
Then just make the walking etc when the variable is in the correct value.
if (timevariable == 12)
{
//character walks in
}

Making RPG game is big question. What things you need to know about doing it?

Well for most of my games I need some guy talking right?
well When I put it so when you press space it switches the text.
How to I make it able to press it again for another text?
And how can I make guys outside of the view not attack ect.?

Variables are your friend. :lol: Make a variable TEXTSTATE. When you click the spacebar it cheks what's the TEXTSTATE and then changes the text to the wanted one. Also it makes TEXTSTATE += 1 so that next time the value will be different for different text.

You can divide your game in activation regions. That will not load the characters before the view is collided with their region. NOTE: You must have all loaded characters inside some region (even small) or they will not be loaded in the game.

Simplest way is to open paint and draw a stickman. Then save it as introvideo_001.jpg.
Then modify it so that his feet moves little. Save it as introvideo_002.jpg.
When you have a nice movie, just create an actor and set its animation to introvideo and choose multiple frames.
Then add event -> animation finish -> destroy actor.
And voilĂ , you're done.
