Post by: Mark of the Dragon on September 01, 2003, 10:50:07 AM: Alright, I've decided to make a HUGE method pack and battle template for the shack, and I want to cover everything needed for a Battle System.

What I've already decided will be in the pack are:

Limit Breaks
Getting Stats
All Attacks
Getting Items/Spells
Multiple Player/Enemy Support
Turn-Based Combat
*Possible* ATB Combat
Full Instructions
Victory Music Support

And yes, I will put in a template with these methods.

If anyone wants me to add some other things to this, post here, or email me at markofdragon@edgeemu.com and let me know.

And G, sorry about givin' you a hard time about the Battle System DevKit before the forum crashed.

Laughing Would be nice, though.
Oh, while your at it, get me a cola and make my BS for me, too. Laughing JK.

Suggestions:
As trigunasha said, make it to where the player actually hits the enemy. That shouldn't be too hard with the #PathFind() and #Push() commands.

Thats about it.

Give me a couple years to get it done.

Post by: Anonymous on October 02, 2003, 10:18:14 AM: Well, with A LOT of C++ knowledge and the right programs, it is possible to create a 3d battle system with the Toolkit in Plugin Form. I wouldn't try it, though.
