It's a pretty simple script, and yet I don't think I've seen anyone do it before, lol... not too bad.

I assume it will, but I'll ask anyway,

Say you have 21 EXP, you need to get to 25 EXP to level up, the next fight gives you 9 EXP, does the EXP roll over so you'll end up being the next level with 5 EXP?

 

[game_guy]

Yup. Rollover experience still works :3.
Thanks for the comment!

Haha, I did the exact same thing a few years ago, but you did it 10 times better than I did.

Congrats, nice script.

The thing with this script, while well executed definately, is that I don't see a valid appliance... modifying the factors in the EXP curve can get you the exact same effect without loosing the data on how much EXP you ever collected. Some people might however prefer it, though, so yeah - as I said before, well executed :p
