    You're far better off posting this on a gaming site. If you have specific programming questions, then post those on the appropriate message board. If you need links to gaming development sites, just search the lounge ... there was a recently asked question about OpenGL that had several URls.

    ok well I have tried other websites but no one gives me an answer can one of you that replied to me try BYOND? The code looks like this here is some of my half-made game.... mob icon = 'people.dmi' //make it so all mobs will be created with the person icon bug //new prototype icon = 'bug.dmi' //override the parent's icon, which was 'person.dmi' monsters icon = 'monsters.dmi' var HP = 30 //define a new variable called HP, with a value of 30 wealth Login() icon_state = gender //when a player logs in, get them the right icon state for ..() //the gender of their key. Then call the parent! proc DeathCheck() if (HP <= 0) world << "Guest killed [src]" del(src) //delete whatever just died verb attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1)) //attack a mob within 1 tile of you usr << "You attack [M]!" //send this message to the usr oview() << "[usr] attacks [M]!" //send this message to everybody else var/damage = rand(1,10) //assign a random # to a new variable world << "[damage] damage!" //tell the damage to the world M:HP -= damage //take away the damage from M M:DeathCheck() //check for death with a proc say(msg as text) //what the usr says is passed into "msg" as text world << "[usr]: [msg]" //the world sees chatroom-like output :(( TJ Slayer

      Here's some help... http://www.paddedwall.org/help I'm excited that I've been able to help people like this twice today... It seems my work is never done. If you suck at programming, why don't you find something else to do with your time. I hear they're looking for more church-burning teenagers... ------- sig starts "I've heard some drivers saying, 'We're going too fast here...'.

        Emmmm ... I see several problems. You should probably consider using the Plain English Compiler[^] as discussed here recently. As for your "code snippet" ... again, programming questions are not allowed in the lounge.

            RPGs are huge. My advice would be to start with something smaller until you really know how to program. Then you can endeavor to take on a large project like an RPG.

                    Noone's going to learn a custom api/programming language just to help you with a question without being paid. As others have suggested if you need help, you're going to have to find a forum devoted to it's use.

                            You are using a proprietary scripting engine (BYOND) to do your 'game development' not a standardized programming language (e.g. C#, C++). You should be asking your question(s) on the website for your scripting engine, not here. Here's a link to a Microsoft page that might contain some information that's probably a heck of a lot more useful than your script kiddie engine; plus it will direct you down a path more geared towards real programming languages.

                                    You need to calm down and stop acting like a spoiled brat. It's about giving and taking. You just don't start demanding help from other people. Learn how to program first, then how to apply your knowledge to solve tricky problems such as RGPs. That's what the rest of us did, why can't you?

                                      yea cuz u guys aren't mean. I am not being a spoiled brat ok? I just wanted to know if someone could help me with my prob, no need to be jackass's ok? Dam....i just wanted help and i didn't ask you to learn it, u prolly already know it u just don't use it. and i thought maybe u have used it before since u are really good at c++. and BYOND is not a kiddie program, it's a game maker, u can make games with c++, it's just harder. c++=game programming BYOND=game maker theres a difference. I was just asking for you to go to the BYOND website and look at the DM guide to see what i am doing the n help me from there. X| Slayer
