Combat System Help

Post by Com4dor »

I know there has to be a tutorial around here somewhere that i am not finding. I need help with coding a combat system or at least help understanding it fully so that i know enough to code one.

Languages: PHP, or JavaScript/Ajax/JQuery.

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean just a generic combat system? There is one in the Hall's Browser MMO tut series found here: http://indie-resource.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=33

Yes, you would need to be more specific. A "combat system" could mean anything from real-time combat to a hybrid chess/RPG system. :cool:

I really do mean pretty much anything for an RPG. I do know he has it posted somewhere. I just don't remember where. Ive searched everything.

I can't remember the specific video, just look around on the lists.

On a side note, I really love combat systems and creating combat systems. If I could get a programming job doing nothing but creating combat rolls for games, I'd love it.

The main YouTube MMORPG tutorial covers a turn-based battle system. Early on it will delete mobs as they are killed, but that is remedied in a later video, so just stick with it :)

I had a post that detailed how to do a more self contained version of the first five or so video's of Hall's series, as a sort of combat system. Not sure if that's of use.
