Great Multiboard RPG IDEA!

Hey i have been playing FFXI for a long time now, and i was thinking of making a type of multiboard that works into the system of FFXI, for those of you that don't know what i am talking about it will work like this.

Top row Current HP/ Max HP
Middle Row Cureent MP/ Max MP
Bottom Row Current TP (tactical points)/ Max TP

The TP is a thing used in most FF games, also known as overdrive. When you attack enough with a weapon, it will let you use a special move or ability or w/e. Each time you attack and hit it increases. I have gotten most the triggering started, i will also set it so each TP gain per attack will increase different amounts depending on what weapons you use. This will prevent a slow attacking unit to gain slow TP and a fast atttacking unit to gain fast TP. it will fix the unbalances.
EX. hand 2 hand weapons gain 4 TP an attack but attack faster. Mauls gain 10 TP per attack but attack slower.

Going to be a little difficult but i know how to do it. BEST PART IS IT IS ALL GOING TO BE IN GUI! BECAUSE I HATE JASS! i will post the map as soon as it is playable and is working.

Nice to see you all again.

lots of people such as Freakazoid hate or are too lazy to learn JASS, it is easy to understand for even those with knowledge of just the editor, such as me. i am very good with GUI.

yes i have played hero RPG, it really doesn't use the overdrive or TP system, it uses a system that tells you when your hero is ready to do an action, all the skills in it are MP based...

i am saying it is going to real-time just like in FFXI, but when you attack the target and hit him enough, you can select an item in your inventory, it will display the weapon skills you can do. Also i am going to make it so the Weapon skills you get change with different weapons (other items) you aquire and have in your inventory. as i said in my first post...


also i still need 5 people to say that they want me to post the map
