    • New Statistics


      It's me again! 😉

      In this game I'm making, I was going to have some new stats in addition to the default stats, like sword skill, thievery, etc. These would be global variables which would be used in events. I want them displayed on the Statistics window when you play a game. How can I do this?

      P.S. Don't you think there should be more user skills than just Karma?

      you could perhaps create a stat screen of ur own nulling out the built in one, meaning;

      use a key up command--->assign stats to a button
      that triggers a dialog
      whcich displays the following

      "GOLD: &&GOLD;&&
      EXP: &&EXP;&&
      SWORDSKILL: &&SWRDSKL;&&

      etc. this would display your variables but would require some behind the scenes work with the scripting details, but essentially the stats screen is just a dialog that displays the ready made stats, meaning u can do it ur self but you'll have more legwork to do. Think on it.

      Acually, I got the idea from Cythera and Exile/Avernum. I'm not sure what skills I'm adding anyway yet.

      Thank a lot though, ill_a_nois! 🙂 (I like smilies!)

      Just post more, and your karma will revert to 0. It takes 25 posts from slap-time, so jus count back. 🙂
