Battle Tutorial Please? (Full Credit AND Detailed)

Hi again!

It's me!

The forum Ginger!

I would like to ask for a script please...

I will give a detailed discription, if anyone needs something else, then PLEASE ASK, and don't just leave!!! *Begs people not to leave*

It's basically a tutorial, like the FF ones, with all the other options blocked out...

Scripts I Use: (That may cause conflict)

SOUL RAGE + Soul Limit (By Blizzard)

LETTER BY LETTER MESSAGE WINDOW (By Slipknot)

DESCRIPTION:

You are on Tutorial Island and enter a battle... (Co-incidentally of course!)

You enter, and a text box appears...
It says this... (In the middle of the screen in a message window...)

"This is the battle menu for Exile..."

Then this...

"When you enter a fight, there are two options,
'fight' or 'escape'..."

Then this...

"Sometimes you may not escape from battles,
such battles are called 'Boss Battles'..."

Then this...

"The enemies you fight in 'Boss Battles' are called
'Bosses'..."

ETC... (Duh, haven't you learned yet? XD)

"This is a boss battle..."

"Try selecting 'Fight' from the menu by pressing 'C'..."

(User tries to escape, but only to find... It's greyed out! He must fight this battle... Grr...)

Then the annoying person comes back...

"Well done! Now, a new menu has appeared!"

"This is called the command window..."

"It has four options..."

"'Attack', 'Mana', 'Defend' and 'Item'..."

"'Attack' makes your character attack with the
weapon in hand..."

"Try attacking the opponent now!"

(Player realises in frustration that everything else is blocked out... So he must attack... But just before attack takes place, the gay person interrupts AGAIN!!! Nyargh!)

"The damage you do to the monster depends on what
weapon you have, and what level you are on..."

"Negative numbers are displayed in Red, and
positive numbers, like healing, are displayed
in green..."

(The player THEN does his attack...)

"See the damage? Damage subtracts from the monsters
health, and when a monsters health runs out, it dies..."

(Before the monster has it's turn...)

"Now it's the monsters turn to attack you... Brace yourself!"

(Monster attacks you...)

"The same applies to you..."

"When all of your health has gone, you are dead..."

"The second option is 'Mana'..."

"This allows characters to perform special attacks in
the heat of battle! But beware, Mana uses up MP, (Mana Points)..."

"Different Mana Skills require different ammounts of mana, and if you don't have enough, then you can't use that skill!"

"Go on! Try it now!"

(All the rest are greyed out, except for 'Mana' of course!)

(Player uses the only skill there, 'Strike'!)

(Typhin 'Strikes' the monster...)

"See how your 'Mana' bar went down?"

"The monster can use mana too you know..."

(Monster does MANA "Charge"...) <This charges for attack>

"Looks like this monster want to get even!"

"But maybe if we defend! We can block his attack!"

(You know the drill, everything is greyed out... Player is frustrated that he MUST use 'Defend'...)

"Great! Uh oh! Here it comes! Brace yourself!"

(Monster uses "Guardian Strike"...)

"Lucky your still alive!"

"Defence halves the damage for one turn of a potential
attack..."

"Even though we are still alive, we do need a bit
of healing..."

"I know! Let's use that potion we found earlier!"

(Just a co-incidence of course...)

(Everything is greyed out except for item...)

(Player gives up trying to do something different and uses the potion...)

"That's better..."

"Did you see that when that monster attacked you,
that your Soul Rage (SR) bar went up?"

"Well whenever you're attacked you gain SR..."

"SR cannot go higher than 100% though..."

"To use up your Soul Rage, go up to 'Mana'

(Player moves cursor up to 'Mana')

(When the cursor is on 'Mana' the annoying person talks AGAIN!!! Nyargh!!!)

"Then press right and 'C'..."

(The player enters the Soul Rage Menu...)

"This is the Soul Rage Menu..."

"All the equipment you're wearing contains special skills attached to them..."

"And these special skills require SR in the same way that 'Mana' requires MP..."

"Go on! Choose the weapon, "Blade Of Iradica" and select it's Soul Rage!"

(You perform it's Soul Rage and the Monster Dies...)

"You did it! You completed your first battle!"

(Victory message shows...)






THANKS!!!

Amos...

The forum ginger...
 
God, I feel so sorry for new people on sites like this... And it doesn't help when people like g-man just say "use a script command" wtf they are new! that probably means they don't know how to script!!

@Amos36- Firstly I need to know what battle system you are using. If you are using the default battle system, then the characters don't run to the enemy so i'm gonna assume that you will choose either ccoa's or minkoff's because frankly theirs are the best.

Get back to me.
 
Hmm... I am about to make battle tutorial too. Is there any chance to make a global battle tutorial (by using DBS of course)? I think it will be useful for players who haven't played RPG in their life (who knows?).

Maybe someone can change the way battle message appears so we can use Battle Events? It might be easier I think (although greying the menus won't possibly work using call scripts)...
