Note for HUD: dont use layer = 1000 or whatever for HUD, may cause it to flicker, use layer = MOB_LAYER+5 // Or whatever you would like Basic HUD code: obj/Who Don't forget to call it in Client/New as follows.. client Well, hope that explains some basic stuff.

There is nothing wrong with using a library if it does what you need it to do, just make sure that your game adds something more than a collection of libraries. Examining well written libraries is a great way to learn how to code.
My rule of thumb for quickly judging if a library is worth learning from: If they can't describe it with proper English, they're too lazy to write properly in DM. |

an rpg, im influenced my several things.
1.the old ultimas (god i love those games.. i have like all of them :P) 2. UO 3. My stories 4. The book "At Winter's End" several other things.. i liked the level of interactivity in the Ultima series, my stories tend to focus on interpersonal relationships, economic/militairy/political/racial conflicts and drives. (racial conflict as in more then 2 species in a conflict.. both allying and waring with one another.) |
