^ya, it was a big decison to go with the ring menu in battle. It workd well for the main menu, but I wasnt sure how well it would work in a battle. I wasnt even thinking of using it, and my scripter programmed it, put it in, and I played and i was like Whoa, that works really great. At first the ring wasnt around the actual player, but we decided to go with that and I think it works really well.Right now, im trying to find a way to to make it stand out above everything else when its up. Might just birghter the icons a little bit, or might do something more drastic like have the entire screen tint darker, while the ring menu stays bright. Im not sure yet. If anybody has aany ideas on this id be glad to hear them.
