simple ABS with no script, just series of events?

[Jessef26]

Hello, I need to learn how to make a ABS system without using a script just a series of events. Does not matter if its VX or XP because i got both.
I would like to know how to:
1.spawn like 3 npc enemies and if 1 dies it respawns like a couple of seconds at a random tile
2.make them only do 1 damage and for the players weapons 1~2 damage
3.if they touch you, you die or when wearing armor which should be change permiters hp+1(samething it breaks and you hp stays to the perimiter of 1,this includes a shield for a certain armor)
4.spawn random chest per certain number of steps.
5.Throwing weapons(like lets say a spear you throw it it goes 7 tiles in the direction the players facing.)
6.random item in the chests including a npc that nullifies your attacking abilities(Including armors and weapons)
7.When the chest gives you armor, and it would know what type of armor your wearing i think its conditional Branch? but lets say a Steel armor which should add perimiter hp+1, Power Steel Armor add 1 more point to attack, Gold Armor that equips a shield icon sprite showed, Adds Perimiter Hp+1 and Special powers to weapons.

Basically I am going for a game like ummm "Super ghouls and ghosts"(it is a owned title by nintendo). If you played it you should kind of get what I am saying. If you could help me I would gladly appreciate it and Put you in credits for you help. If you want money sorry I broke. If you do have a script easily understandable to those with no knowledge of scripting like me, I would gladly use it and add you to the credits.

Edit: Found a event created ABS

First, I recommend you learn the basics variables and switches before even attempting this. Then become acquainted with setting variables to certain things, such as Hero X and Hero Y.

With that said, I won't cover all of the requests. Once you learn how to utilize variables set to X and Y locations, then all of that will be easy enough.

1.spawn like 3 npc enemies and if 1 dies it respawns like a couple of seconds at a random tile

First create the three enemies. Each should have two pages; one blank, and one with a visible sprite.
The Precondition on the blank page should be (if) Enemy 1 Dead = ON.
or (if) Enemy 2 Dead = ON, for the second enemy.
etc.

First Event (Parallel Process)
Conditional Branch if Enemy1 HP <=(less than or equal to) 0
Set Event Location: Enemy 1 (000, 000)
Control Switch: Enemy 1 Dead = ON
Conditional Branch if Enemy2 HP <=(less than or equal to) 0
Set Event Location: Enemy 2 (000, 000)
Control Switch: Enemy 2 Dead = ON
Conditional Branch if Enemy3 HP <=(less than or equal to) 0
Set Event Location: Enemy 3 (000, 000)
Control Switch: Enemy 3 Dead = ON

Second Event (Parallel Process)
Precondition Switch: (if) Enemy 1 Dead = ON
Control Variable: Respawn Tile X Random No. (1-xxx)
xxx = the width of your map
Control Variable: Respawn Tile Y Random No. (1-xxx)
xxx = the height of your map
Wait: 100 Frames
Set Event Location: Enemy 1 (Variable, Variable)
The variables are specified above
Control Switch: Enemy 1 Dead = OFF

edit: In fact, just put the above event commands within the first page of the enemy 1 Event.

Third Event
Basically a copy of the second event, with changes. It's in another event, because the second event uses a wait command, which would hault the respawn time of another enemy (in case two enemies happened to die at once)

4.spawn random chest per certain number of steps.

Set a variable to the operand Steps
Conditional Branch (if) Variable: Steps = 50
Control Switch Spawn Chest = ON
Your treasure chest event would contain multiple pages. The first would be blank, and the second would have the precondition (if) Spawn Chest = ON

Making a simple ABS; without a HUD, only minimal enemy AI, and without all of the fancy numbers... with events, isn't too difficult. But it does take a good understanding of variables, switches, and conditional branches.
