No free resources for kills. It needs to be just like the computer game. Otherwise it's not as fun, and it's not a true RTS.

actually it is going to be a TBS (turn based strat.), RTS won't work without ASM, and the prgm i need isn't made, and i don't know if they are making it or not...

Well my answers are always the same, download some of my titles and look at the code... Very Happy Monster Battle is great for a battle engine...

by turn based do you mean "limited" or "unlimited" turns. cause i made a basic game which was based on a limtied amount of turns before (mainly because i thought every game needed a high score list at the time)... if its what i think it is i could probably help, depending on how much calc homework i get

:wacko: :wacko: :wacko:
flash may seem smart, but i assure you he is not

Calc homework? You actually have a class on the calc? That's... weird.

i thought so too....
maybe he means calculus? just a guess....

both limited and unlimted would be fun, but right now i am working on memory issues (out of the 24k active ram, all would be used, I wounder if i could make it into a Marige (sp?) App, but in basic, then the game could be so much better, but right now it is cool)

I would love any help, i was going for a civalation 2 or 3(sp?, again) play style, i also had put up the idea of adding a RPG element( hey,A TBS and RPGelement game might be fun, you would have more control over what happens, like defending, or attacking, or way out there, Items???) but that was just an idea, but would require too much help (though i have a battle engine for that style almost done...) and people are not very willing to help anyone here so...

(sorry it took me so long, no internet time at home, and school blocks this website, it has the word game in it, hey that would be a good filter, just a thought...)

Hey, I'm willing to help, it just seems that most of this stuff is beyond my current abillity level and attenton span. Find something a self-proclaimed "BASIC sub-guru" can do, and I'll jump on it.

trust me it's not, send me your e-mail address... i will send you the files you will need...

i was thinking of adding a RPG style to it, each battle would be RPG style, with a civ 2/3 over view turn based, but ppl don't seem to like that idea...

Watchfordanomes@att.net (that would help a lot)

You already know my e-mail address. Everyone on this board and everyone who uses the JACstudios website knows my e-mail address, or at least can easily find it out.
26 Sep 2003 05:38:25 pm by JesusFreak
sorry i am so confused, i then already sent you some files...
26 Sep 2003 07:01:37 pm by Toksyuryel
Yes. You sent me some files and winzip refuses to open them. Remember?

Ok, please continue this conversation through PM's, I'll let this thread stay open for a while in case somebody want's to ask anything about that battle engine, but if it's going to be used as a substitute for PM's/Email, I'm going to close it.
