  Hey there! _H3X_ back again! I just wanted to ask you guys a few questions that i need for making my story game. Yes, it is an RPG and i need a combat system, EXP and level up. I have thought awhile and i got a decent idea how to do it, but it is impractical. So i just wanted to ask you guys how. 

So, any tips appreciated. Thanks!     

First, you type 250 pages of scripting in MSWord...

What? 

Really?

Yes, if you like things complex (unfortunately).

The EXP system is pretty easy.

And this is for Combat.

Hope I helped! And if anything didn't make sense, just PM me the specifics and I can help out.

Thanks man! 

Man, I must have done it all wrong then haha!

Probably not x'D if you have a better one, you can share. I just grabbed the articles and went "there ya go."

BZ, show us the Delve scripting.

All of it.

Due to the limitation of the IF/THEN process in CYS, a script grows exponentially the more you want it to do. I'd share some of mine, except that they are way too bulky.

Roll a dice and see if you hit - easy.

Roll a dice, see if you hit, roll damage if true, apply damage, check for kill, route to appropriate results page - significantly more involved.

If you add variables like damage reduction, you need to put checks in to prevent someone gaining HPs from a lousy damage roll.

That's some fun stuff, right there!
