Ok I've put quite a bit of posts on here, but I'm requesting something rare.  I need a abilities and traits script. This would be kinda cool b/c you can pick the abilities you want, and get a trait based on your race.

Could you elaborate a little? I'm betting that you could probably accomplish the effect you're looking for using existing scripts.

abilities in the sense of certain things that make a character different, for instance Lockpicking and stealth.  Traits in the sense of something that a character automatically has, whether good or bad, inherited through family.  It could be anything like Beserker or Regeneration/healing.  I want a script that will allow me to put all the abilities and traits that I've developed for this game, and put up to 10 abilities and automatically pick a trait based on race.

Can't this be done with some elaborate event system-ing?

My mind's a bit disorganized right now, but determining what trait you'll be can be from a random variable...Then a flag or another variable turns on saying what trait this certain hero is (In case you need to reference it again, if not, then hooray, we don't need this flag).

Uh...

Maybe something like...
Message Choice: Human, Elf, Orc, etc.

Choose: Human
Set variable [001] random 1-3
if [001] = 1 then
Add Skill etc.
Message: Your trait is stupidity. etc.
Else
if [001] = 2

And the process repeats. @_@ There's always optimized ways yeah, but this is off the top of my head...

This might be a bit too advanced, but hey, Eventing is much more user friendly than scripting at times. xD

What's osu!? It's a rhythm game. Thought I should have a signature with a working rank. ;P It's now clickable!
Still Aqua's biggest fan (Or am I?).
