Magic Systems

Request 1
Learning magic by schools.

Magic in my game, is going to be learning by sections, Alteration, Destructions, Restoration. ECT.
What I am looking for is someone to Script out a sorta a School Roster look, that Addess an 2nd Class to you character. This class has its own lvl system, which IF the player changes in the middle will remember what lvl it was for each class. But would not interfear with the Players 1st class. It works just like any class, you can define what spells they learn via database. But would also like to add a little addon to it to. In the script you can define, how stats are lvled up whild you are in the school, like say for every lvl, if you are learning the fire spell, you will gain +4 str +7 Hp every lvl. But if you are learning the Water spell school. You gain +4 Int +7 Mp every lvl instead

Get my point?

Request 2
I want to change up how magics works a bit. When you SP/MP gets low, yor energy gets drained, and if you run out of Points you can die. All player are based on a % of points they have, when they get low, they can get weak and even be knocked out(Not dead) But if they use tomuch magic, it can even kill them. So could prevent them from usng spells they are not ready to use yet. But the more you uses a type of skill, more resistance you get from it, be able to cast more without it hurting you.


Be great is both this script where SDK compat, I am also using alot of Tricks battle addons, too SO it be great it they worked with them as well.

If I need to make anything more clear just let me know, have a habit of that, seeing I know how i want it and everyone else doesn't :D

New request.

Stats system redone, looking to have different Stats, Like Str, Con, Def, Dex ect
so Str will raise attack power, Def raise Pdef, Con raises HP ect.

Thanks for reading this.
 
Majority of stuff can be done with events, but scripts are so much better. I can do it with events i just dont want to.

Request number 2, i got the idea from this movie, where magic sucks the life from you making u older or something like that(was drunk when i watched it)
 
As of request 2, somewhere in this section I made a mod for someone requesting similarly: actor knocked out (or dead) when SP reached 0. Non-SDK unfortunately, and I am not interested to convert it ;) getting weaker with lower SP should not be much problem then.

I believe that the second condition, getting stronger by using skills regularly, has been already made by Trickster or SephirothSpawn (sorry guys, you both always compete in best scripts; I can't remember who made what). Ask him; if lucky, he should make an add-on for you.
 
For the first one, Why not let the school NPC's just hand out some skillbooks that learn a member of your party that magic? You then just have to turn off the switch giving him the power to hand them out.

your talking about The Covenant. They have a power and each time they use it it drains their life force, increasing their age. And when they get too old, they die.
 
Well because, this is the way I want to have my system work out, with the schools and such, it is the way I have it planned. That is why I am making the request to have it the way I want it. No offence but tired of redirecting myself from the path i choose.
