And a "check money" command, too. That's something that should have been made a long time ago...

Psst, Uncommon. The following will check for an amount money:

YEah, but I think we really need a plain command to check the money...

As for the compiler inside custom, that would be awesome, but HSpeak is coded in Euphoria, and Custom is coded in QBasic. Of course, there always HPeak version 1 coded in QBasic, but that's anti-progress, and there would no doubt be not even near enough memory for that. Did I mention that version is also apparently way slower?
So much for the speed increase.

The global text strings: Exactly HOW will you change them? You can't pass strings to functions. I've tried using constants for each character, but that is extremely lengthy, hard, and slow.

Thatll do it? Blah blah? Of course I am not serious! I know what you mean!

Ok, I was late to this one, but I found something that really bugs me, and it sometimes makes me mess up.

-The extra hits function under dammage settings in attack editor in OHRRPGCE editor (wolfwood, and even paternoster) both say, well, Extra hits... Doesnt that mean how many hits besides the first (hence the word EXTRA?) I dont know why that bugs me as much as it does, but it is a minor thing that should be easy to change. What happens is it makes me at first think that the attack gets one extra hit because it starts at one. I think it should start at 0, or the name changed to just plain HITS... -----

Sorry if this already came up before I posted it. I must have skipped all the pages up to here since page 8ish, or so. Big grin

i thought that option only hits once if it was set to one and won't do an extra hit until it's set to two...

Well, that is what I meant to say. It says extra hits though, and that means more past the first hit. A minor problem that could esily be fixed, if Mr. Paige remembers to; or if he reads this, and then remembers to.

I think it's a good minor error fix, since hits is indeed more accurate. That or James could just .... well actually swapping the variable down one value position would screw up a lot of games. So... hits or bust Ha ha ha!

A script that remembers music by number, can recall music by number, and a script that plays the map's default music.

That would fix Pitch Black so well...

Shadowiii, you can improvise by using autonumber scripts.

Uncommon · Posted: Sat Nov 01, 2003 2:45 pm Post subject:

Leroy, you could always change it in "Global Text Strings"...

Minnek · Posted: Sat Nov 01, 2003 2:59 pm Post subject:

He's speaking of the one in the Edit Attacks section, not the stat on the heros. Perhaps we should have mentioned it like that earlier...oh well, no matter. Big grin

Aeth - Yeah, thanks. But I'd still like the command, for simplicity's sake.

Two more things.

1. Have an attack be able to be "Attack Enemy in Position # __". This would greatly help in the making of Battle "movies."

2. Have the option of spell-catagories that are empty not show up in the battle menu (similar to "magic" in FF6). I'm sick of playing newish games that don't have many spells implimented but have 6 different slots and 3 of them DONT HAVE ANY SPELLS IN THEM EVER. Plus it would remove battle clutter.

by the way shadow, you can use a textbox to restore the music...

I'm reviving this thread because I feel it has some importance overall, plus I have something I want to see:

A brush tool. Not just a single pixel "pencil" tool, but a brush tool where you can set the width in pixels, etc. Perhaps choose whether the brush is square or round. This would greatly speed up pixelating large enemies.
