[XP] Blizz-ABS

[ojp2010]

I was about to say that isn't right? lol I edited my post saw some errors.

[element]

Yeah, me == system failures from time to time...

Quick question, would it be possible to see what the eneamy wants to hit you and store it in a variable?
like :

$game_variables[id] = latest hit

I want to use this for the player to absorb some damage. Like a shield-skill.

Blizzard, our dear friend and the god we worship, would it be hard to include strafing (moving without turning) to BABS? Also, i'd like to get an answer to my previous question.

[ShadowPierce]

->That could easily be evented...

Someone please answer my question?

How do you want strafing?  I know one way you can do it is when you hit 'shift', then you always stay looking at the direction you were facing.  Or are you talking about adding extra keys that also strafe, along with turning left and right?

[ojp2010]

Is there anyway to make is so players can use skills or items directly off the hotkeys. Meaning players could press 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 and use any skill or item 'bound' to the key instead of the, example, pressing one then pressing 'R' to use the selected variable. More like a MMO style action bar.

[Wizered67]

There is a direct hotkeys option in the config.

[ojp2010]

In the configuration tool? I could only find options to turn it on or off. Could you point me in the right direction please?

[Wizered67]

Wait, I re-read your post and I'm slightly confused....
Do you want it so that when you hit hotkey 1 it will automatically use whatever skill the player assigned to it, or do you want it to automatically asign the skill to the hotkey?

If all you want is for you not to have to press the skill key and just press the hotkey button, then just turn direct hotkeys on.

[ojp2010]

When a player press '1' on the keyboard the skill is used, player presses '2' on the keyboard the skill set to '2' is used. So I think the first options you stated it what I am looking for.

Seriously, dude.

I want the strifng to be so that when a certain key is being pressed, along with a movement key, you move in that direction, but you don't turn.
So, say you're facing up, and you want to quickly dodge to the letf a few squares. Easy, but say, you have low health and the enemy is still up. It could make the diffrence in life and death if you turn, or if you can attack him as soon as you've dodged.

->Make an event where when you hold a button (conditional statement), your player's direction fix is turned on (set move route)...

Hope I helped!!!

Man, I keep getting ignored!

Hey blizzard:

Is it possible to have the defend system from zelda(zelda 1,a link to the past,etc)?

You basicly always defend unless you attack.

BTW: remember me from the RPG RPG revforums?

->IMO, though this is doable, it ultimately destroys Blizz-ABS' intention of letting players focus on using skill over strategy...

I just want to make a game that's like zelda.

Oh I didn't realize that is what the option was for, I must have been spacing. Thank you!

[Ryex]

did you read the manual? seriously the manual isn't that large and reading it even once will give you a clear picture of what Babs can do, even just reading the sections on configuration would prevent rather silly question like this.

->'Kay then, I'll think of something... But you'll most likely get help from one of the godlike scripters here anyway... If there's still nothing, I guess you'll just have to settle with me...

Be back in a few hours!!!
