kool, theres an easy way to fix that porno! im suprised you didnt think of that, its called "atac sped" or something, not totally sure, i have never used it before, i think it has something to do with how fast the atack, :D all you gotta do is make his atack speed 2 and make every 2.5 seconds spawn 1 peasant in region 001 then when units enters region 001 order unit to move to region 002 then when unit enters region 002 remove unit, EASY AS PIE! (quoting fins from commandos 2 :p) so thats a pretty easy way, i have a mpa that shows EXATCLY how to do that, of you need any help, its actually called "shooting range" pretty idiototic, but it works,

how come my :p faces dont work! :p:p:p:p:p

ok ya kaldaris thats fine, but let me just ask genki one thing about that.

Genki, in battle if you chose from the dialoge for example something from kaldaris mage, you would click black magic on the first dialogue, then a second would show up on which magic you wanted to perform, now, if this is possible, it would be alot easier, (sorta), how would the character, choose which one too attack? the only idea i have for this is slots. Im not sure if we could do this, but in each battle place, we have what i call 3 or 4 slots. When theres an encounter the monsters go to random slots but can never exceed 3 or 4 or whatever the mximum number of slots is. So what i am asking you is, is it possible if after we chose the black magic in dialogue 1, then fire in dialogue 2, then if he chose like slot 1, could we get it so fire would effeft the monster in slot one? like a attack everyone in this region, since there will be only 1 enemy in each slot (region).

Now the problem with this is, can you read button clicks two times in a row, could the A.I store it that he is using fire, and which slot to attack?

The other way to do it, is just put them as abilities like spells in the real game. But i am thinking it may limit the game, depending on how many spells we have for everyone? I rather do the slot idea, but not sure if its possible to store in the A,I a fire attack and then click another dialogue button. And if we did do them as hero abilties, can you do once they cast 1 spell and use it, move back to original position and stop?

The other way to do it, i just thought of would be to use triggers to add and remove. If they clicked the fire dialogue button have a trigger add that to her abilities, and once she is done using it, remove it. Just with trigger, im pretty sure theres an add spell, remove spell from hero trigger.

Whichever way would be the best and most possible. Your choice

what do you think of this for an opening scene

in the year 723 B.C. 7 spheres of power were unleashed apon the world each with there own powers 4 controling the elements, one controling life, one controling death and then a final sphere
with parts of all the other spheres melded into it. Then the 7 spheres were dispersed to tribe leaders of the island chain Sipaki over time the leaders got corupt and there spheres transformed
them into monsters this happend to all the sphere holders but one and that one had a son (name of main badguy) who wanted all the power for himself horribly.

Fade to the name of map

I am on Luch break!! so you better appreciate!! this

Well about teh party leader - you can just assign one - like jim bob and tim are playing they wanna be a band - jim is choosen to be leader - well get tim and bob to right-click on jim and they will follow him - then if they wanna disband - they just dont follow him anymore!! see what i am saying - i know what you are trying to do - but it may not really be nessacery - now if you want one leader and the team follows but isnt actually on the screen -( liek on Final Fantasy) - teleport the team members to a littel square somewhere while ONLY the leader moves and then have a region they can step on to disband!! - if you do this like this you will need to make player group varibles!!

ok and about teh fighting together - simple - make player groups!!! when teh leader incounters teh MONSTERS - ACTION - pick every player in (Player group - Team 1) and teleport to whereever teh fight is!! when player disbands do player remove from player group!!

sorry about all the teh's i cant seem to type the right my finger are stupid!!

Hope this help's some!!! I''ll be in touch!! go to get back to work now!! laters!!

p.s. finalfantasy nut that story kinda sound like the LORD OF TEH RINGS !! just thought i say that - no worries!! :)

Dont know how to make quotes so im just gonna paste genki here was the question i needed to ask so i could start:

no i dont want him to make them, i need him to tell me which is possible, if we have to do it as an hero ability, or if we can make it a dialogue to read which spell, and which slot to attack, the same with everything else, because all things even normal attack will have to be a double dialogue, but how will it read attack slot one, how does it know we clicked attack, after we click slot one, is there a use previous command button or anything?

K, since there are hidden characters, we need to make a message now whenever you are about to buy an optional character warning them there are hidden characters, and you can only have 1 and you may not sell your hero once you buy him.
