this may sound stupid, but, why did he say hi to me?

Thanks Monk, but I was reading it was only really neccessary for Gold only. It takes 8000 gold to make one and I only got 5000 available. I don't really care about the Stock Market though (I'm not asking to borrow anything Monk :P) so, it'll probably take a while IF I get it together ;)

Joho, are you sure all Triggers still work with this new patch?

Wasabi, I think he said hi because he remembered the name 'Wasabi' all of a sudden when I was leaving :P Nothing special. He got a better memory for names then me, I suffer of a short-memory.

Well i could care less about the stockmarket
And Fladian i realized what all that Oracle stuff means, i think i no now.

Anywho Joho we got a multibourd, and howabout a self multibourd for items, abilities and Other Things. You could add the backpacks in there.

Skins, since i dont know where all the skins are im not makingn the list, and since theres no list too bad the game wont have skins.

I'll be leaving this project soon, for im growing tired of Warcraft III... Sorry but i made my choice.

I play on USWest oO

Taking a break for most of today for anything that is work related (everything takes work...I'm reffering to boring work :( I hate making Save/Load Triggers..lol its so boring..I have to go and check this or that..then gotta write it all down..then head back and fix everything..[I checked save part this morning..I think I got somethin wrong cuz it doesn't give me a code oO, will fix tho] also remember this is first time I have EVER dealt with variables oO I dun like um..)
Here...a sneak peak of the crap I have to deal with^^ just so u can't blame me for not wanting to work today :(

Quote:
For each (Integer A) from 1 to (Length of Passbeforeencrypt2), do (Actions)
Loop-Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Substring(Passbeforeencrypt2, (Integer A), (Integer A))) Not equal to -
Then - Actions
Set finalpassword = (finalpassword + (String ((9 - (Integer ((Substring (Passbeforeencrypt2, (Integer A), (Integer A))))))))
Else - Actions
Set finalpassword = (finalpassword + -)
Game - Display to (All Players) for 30.00 seconds the text: (finalpassword + is your password)

I'd put it in code wrap but it came in a VERY small box so I did Quote Wrap!

Meh its all right...either way I needed 1 for my rpg...I was just never actually willing to try and make one until now...But in the meantime can someone explain to me how u plan to learn skills so I can finish a trigger for that..I had an idea for one..just make a dummy item with a name that is related to learn the spell..then you can have it restore mana so it has 1 charge and when they use it a trigger recognizes it being used and gives the triggering players hero that spell..just an idea...
Or the old fashoned traditional way...Unit purchases an item, triggering unit learns X spell, delete purchased item...I like mine a lil better cuz then the item has a little more of a purpose^^

the way i think we should to it is ........

when a player shoses a class they get 2 free spells ........prechosen?..........then the rest them must find scrolls or buy them .........so why not make them items?
09-23-2004, 04:55 PM#927
Joho
well i can get the hero to learn the skill....but i cant level it up...im trying to make it using dialog but i dont know how... well here is the map anyway see wat u can with it..

Well guys im gone, but im sad to leave to let ya know. Use my skins and triggers, i dont care if u include me in da credits, but im leaving.

Cya....

Joking im not leaving!

About the spells, howabout we use the Inventory as your JOB things and have the SPELLS and ITEMS in the PERSONAL DIALOG.

I know whats wrong Joho...u gotta add to the trigger so it sets the learned ability to Level1 and as for lvling it up I have no idea how you'd want to do that...there are many ways (unit gains a level set ability to lvl 2, Dialog, ect. ect.)

Ok for the Main Menue i was thinking the buttons could be:
-Save
-Quit
-Attributes
-Abilities
-Information
-Portals
-Quests

Save:
For save ofcourse is where you save, Load wont be there because you have to type that in, but this should be because its original and easy.

Quit:
Rofl im a idiot and dont know what dat mean...doiii...Omg that means quit. Even know its un neaded its easy to make and dont take up space.

Attributes: This is the unspent Attributes, if you save them then you can go to this option and you will be able to use them.

Abilities: This is where you can upgrade your abilities. As Joho added this will be a way to upgrade.

Information: 3 Choices -Other Player Info: Gives info on other players heros.
-Game Info: Info on game.
-Your Hero Info: Info on your personal hero.

Portals: When you visit a city, you will be able to buy the Town Portals, then later in the game if ur on the other side you will be able to teleport there, One portal per Town Portal Item. Maximum of 4 and are expensive.

Quests: This opens up the quest mode:

Code:
Action: (game) force (player) UI Key: F12 or whatever the quest log is.
This is just so it feels more prefecianal.
