Okay this topic is for me to help organize what it is I am trying to do with the battle program for TSOD.
Goals:
Semi Realtime Battle System that pauses you decide to act.
Auto Action for opponets and allies that are set to auto. In other words, I want to make it so that the user can set all of their team members to auto and watch them make decisions. This way, the user can get ideas from watching the AI battle.
Summons
Item useage
Tag team atacks
Scripts and Dialog that execute during battle and change scenerios.
Closeups of characters and opponets when they do major attacks.
Victory Dance
I want it to be easy to use but strategic none the less

Concept: Using a while loop or using goto

I thinks it is much easier to use a while loop because it is more structured and seems to run faster for what I need to do. So c1-->

CODE

ec1whilec2

ec2 1 enimy and 1 ally is alive, execute program.

What about the progam itself: fight...psudeo!!!!!!

c1-->

CODE

ec1Fight(enimys As matrix, team As matirx, script As string)
{
...
while
end
...
}c2

ec2

enimys Name, HP, DP, Weapon, Attack, Defense, Accuracy...
[{Justin,99999,19999, Sword,100,255,61...},{Phenoix,34000,27000, NONE, 255,200,100...}]

team is pretty much the same...

script can be anything

Yep it's all about making the engine as flexible as possible, and divided into separate, smaller functions. Using this style it's very easy to debug and to add new features.

I wish you the best of luck in completing this ambitious project. I am glad to see you returned to this platform, I thought you migrated to the PSP.
