Well, I'd rather not have to specify several different files. It's convenient to have one to replace the basic npc. I wouldn't recommend using this in scripted sequences or anything specific. Just to replace the basic npc script for combat. I didn't eliminate the comments. I got rid of the ones cluttering up the lines with commands on them and then made a paragraph explaining what the chunk of code does. I'm taking a leaf out of Jesse Liberty's book (both figuratively and literally), in other words, you shouldn't write code that needs that many comments. It should be clear enough that with one explanation, you can understand what it does. By the way, I fixed some typos and other stuff and redid the comments like I said I would. So now version 0.5.1 of the model creature script is coming out. As soon as I finish up with this script, I'll start working on another one and maybe a scenario. -------------------- You have been arpeggiated! Posts: 23 | Registered: Tuesday, April 26 2005 07:00 |

Sweet! I finished the site and stuff. Although that was probably longer than 10 minutes, which was probably caused by this infernally slow computer. Not to worry, my birthday is in 10 days and my parents are fixing the uber-sweet super machine that we had for it! But, I'm going to Maui on the day and won't be back 'til 7 days later. The link to the site is: http://www.freewebs.com/the_arpeggiator or you can just click the WWW thing by my name. I'm going to eat breakfast now and use the bathroom, because I am hungry and a living being. So it might be more than 15 minutes before version 0.5.1 is released. Anyway, test it out. -------------------- You have been arpeggiated! Posts: 23 | Registered: Tuesday, April 26 2005 07:00 |

Look, I'm terribly sorry for not getting this out sooner, but...I was overwhelmed by finals and then it was summer and then I was on vacation and then I was at summer camp and then I got this crazy urge and...poof! Model Creature Script = Done Well, actually, I have to make a really cheesy website for you to download it from, first. So, you'll have to wait like 10 minutes, ok? Please forgive me, everyone. Meanwhile, you can read the final version of the long list of comments at the top of the document.

Okay, I'm back now. Sorry for the delay. I can't work now because I have a history paper to do, but I'll try to squeeze some time in during the rest of the week and I'll definetly finish the script this weekend! There's still testing, though. But that shouldn't take long. When I post again, I'll have finished the script, okay? -------------------- You have been arpeggiated!

Not that this would be any easier, but you could design a relatively complicated script to calculate the values for these skills depending on the character's level or some other factor. -------------------- You have been arpeggiated! Posts: 23 | Registered: Tuesday, April 26 2005 07:00 |

Okay, I've changed the script slightly, but I've also finished some more of the combat types script portions. First, the changes: -Sorry, but no more item weakness, because the need for a creature sight arises signifigantly in the higher combat types, which I hadn't realized before. (Since I hadn't finished them yet.) So now, Memory Cell 9 is creature sight (sorry to whoever suggested this). -Also, I've gotten rid of the boss combat type. Since it is the same as the ones before and I don't need to send a message to kill the creatures. -I also went back and checked a bunch of my code and separated the code into further portions and edited for the new changes, as well as slightly changed the flee conditions and commands to where it checks for the condition before attacking. I finished the Combat Types 4-10, so I'd say I'm coming along pretty well. I've been working a lot on my scenario, so I haven't had too much time to finish the script. Though, I should, since basically every creature in my scenario uses it. I may not be able to access my computer for several days, however. So that will definetly impede progress. Other than that, I'd say I'm about 50% done. -------------------- You have been arpeggiated! Posts: 23 | Registered: Tuesday, April 26 2005 07:00 |

btw, to change it so the party can only read it once, use an SDF. just write it out so that the party only finds the tome if the SDF is not equal to 1. Then, at the end, set SDF (whatever) to 1. here's the code: if(SDF(1,6) == 0) // or whatever your SDF is { code... set_sdf(1,6,1); // right before the end break; } else // be sure to include this so that it is // outside of all those nested ifs and whatnot break; // ends the state and does nothing -------------------- You have been arpeggiated!

Really, Spiderweb has the best RPGs ever. Though they may be limited by crappy 2-d stuff, it's the most similar to classic D&D. This is what I think they were going for. I simply haven't seen any RPG that could compare as far as depth goes with any of Spiderweb's Avernum or Exile games. They're all mundane click, fight, get gold. No special encounters to speak of. If someone really wanted to make an excellent RPG, they should make one in the style of Avernum/Nethergate, but in 3D and sudo-real time (things act without you having to act). They'd have to work out a better system for special encounters, because a text box that tells you what you can already see is dumb. Maybe make a breif cutscene that you can direct in the editor(if there was one).

Okay, tonight I didn't finish that Item Weakness part yet, but I did set up the inflict status ailment code to be added into it. I finished the Combat Type Check (long list of IF statements about combat type and what state to go to when they are equal to certain things). I also had to change the code for the first 3 combat type statements slightly to accomodate for the state changes. And I added the fourth combat type statement. Just so you know, I'll report my progress every night. I'm also not working as fast or as much as I could during weekdays, because I have homework and I'm trying to finish "Chronicle" (my scenario entry, to the contest) before June 1st. But usually, I only have to divide up my time between Chroncle and the script on saturday (plus social activities), but I can get a lot more done at night, since I can sleep in the next day. (edit) BTW, regardless of the time shown above the post, it's actually 10:57 PM here.

Okay, that's not a bad idea. By default, the damage for this item class will be double(But if you want to modify the script, you can change this). I'll also add a long list of commented code to afflict the creature with negative status effects as well, from which they can prune and add the ones they want, if they want to modify the script code, that is. Okay, I'll get to work on that combat script portion (I've only finished code for the first three types). (edit) Also, if the value for this memory cell is over 1000, it will be the number of the item that can instantly kill the creature. You could also change this code to something to that effect or whatever, but okay.

Okay. I finished that states dealy for the creature mobility check. I also worked out a better way for mobility type 7. So I'm good. (Disregard my post before.) I also got rid of the creature sight memory cell and replaced it with a level storage cell. This should make annoying stuff like making scripts for creature levels a lot easier. I didn't realize there was a ninth memory cell, as well, does anyone have any suggestions as to what to put in it? Please post your ideas! -------------------- You have been arpeggiated!
