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.

You posted your question into the wrong forum 2. You make it sound like you want us to make your game. 2. is probably not intended, but that's what it looks like to us... I can give you following advice though: Programming games on your own isn't that simple, in fact it's pretty advanced programming. Learn to master the language you're programming in and try some simple things first. Then build up slowly. good luck. No hurries, no worries.

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 -
yea real flipping funny. alright wise ass, what i ment by "I suck at programming," was that i need help not to be criticized by 30 year old guys who sit in their moms basement and play D&D ok? I just want some simple help with my game, not much to ask.:mad: TJ Slayer
I thought John was like - 50, or something.

I am, but I wanted to use an example that included his age so that he'd have a solid mathematical basis for understanding that I'm not 30, and 3x16 was the closes I could get without risking the possibility of losing him when I added 2 to 48. :) ------- sig starts "I've heard some drivers saying, 'We're going too fast here...'.

ok, I am sorry for acting like a whiney spoiled brat. First of all, now everyone can stop sending me hate messages on this thread. But I only wanted help with programming. Yes; I am not very good, but that gives you guys no right to make fun of me or the things I have said, nor how I type my words. For instance instead of "you" I type "u." Honestly, who the hell cares how I type, as long as the message get's out there to the world. Second I saw a message from someone who told me that he tried to make a RPG, but ended up with a small one; and that I shouldn't do an RPG. So since RPG's are to complex for me then what should I start doing? any ideas are welcome.(If they are a nice message not hate messages) But to let you know I did not intend to make it seem like i wanted you to make my game, just show me some examples maybe give me a sight about starting game engines that I could use I don't know. I am just a starting programmer who wants to make something of myself, and I started making games; thats what I love, so please could you lend me a hand and stop being so cruel.:(( Slayer

You just need to bone up and do the work required. There's not a real programmer here or anywhere else that didn't sweat there butt's off to get up to speed on the language and the structs of the language. You really need to find a quite place to read and work the examples. You'll be so glad you did and come to think of it... We will to.

I didn't see anyone sending you hate messages here. Most were trying to be helpful. When you start teaching a child about maths you start with counting to 10, you don't jump them straight to the texts on calculus or trignometry.

This is an international forum and most who participate probably don't have English as a first language. There are people out there who could potentially help, but if they don't understand that your abbreviation of "you" is "u" then they won't understand what you are writing. It is best to keep to standard word contractions if you want as many people to understand the message. It wouldn't matter that the message is "out there" if few can understand it.

I didn't say that. The reason my RPG was small was because I was using a ZX Spectrum (a home computer of the early 1980s with 48K memory). I said start with something simpler to begin with rather than jump in at the deep end. Of course, some people relish the idea of jumping in at the deep end, but for most of us it would scar us for life. If you can handle the deep end from the word go then by all means go for it. My suggestion was to start with simpler things and build up your knowledge. Each project can add something that you might find useful in an RPG. You can take notes as you go saying things like "This concept could work well for X feature". Then as you progress you might find something similar, but with some subtle differences and you could then put "That concept might be better for feature X. Need to compare concepts to see where each is useful". ColinMackay.net Scottish Developers are looking for speakers for user group sessions over the next few months. Do you want to kn
