really? umm then can you go to http://www.BYOND.com/docs/DMguide that should bring you up to speed to what i am doing. If that doesn't work then jsut go to Http://www.BYOND.com/ then go to the link on the left that says DM Guide. Then it brings you to the guide for using BYOND language. Please try it and see what i am talking about. I am not a spoiled brat, just a new programmer looking for some help. thanks. Slayer

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

:-Dok I want to learn a more common and powerful engine...please teach me I want to be a Game Programmer/Game Design when I get older.;P TJ Slayer

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

Well neither is this statement helping me\/ 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... no I know how to make an rpg i just need help with a few thiongs mainly an invotory thing, and being able to equip things to your guys 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

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

In single quotes! world //set one of our world's characteristics: turf = /turf/grass //its default turf is the grass turf. turf start icon = 'grass.dmi'//same icon_state = "floor"//this is the start you can put this any where and that is where //the person will start at ok there.....is that enough?
