I'm not sure but I think it's cuz you have something triggered by if and then you have a then statement, but I don't know.

Also it's because of the error in another line, it's quite frustrating.

Also, the error I get is "could not determine the parameter of loop object at line 58", that could be one of the problems.

Oh. Some harsh school system you've got. Anyways, I think I've got the combos figured out so I'm working on that. Also what do you guys think of my hud? To show you've attacked with a certain key I will be adding 3 pictures one of the / key, one of the shift key and one of the ctrl key that will ghost on and off if pressed, they will all ghost on and off repeadtly if you have completed a combo.

Thanks.
I can't wait for some ingame screens of midtime.
Okay, so I'm implmenting lives into my game your character has five "flo flourishes" which bring back their spirit from the dead each time and once you use all five you get a game over if you die after that, here's the code I tried to use but it doesn't refill the health bar:

The variables:
lives = 5
playerhealth = 100
max_hp = 100
What it does is when you reach zero health the game doesn't exit, but the health bar doesn't go back, what do I have to do for it to go back?

If playerhealth = 0 then lives = lives - 1
If lives =>1 then end
If lives = lives -1 then playerhealth = max_hp

lives will never equal lives-1 that is sheer impossibility (think about it from a mathematical perspective, it's like saying x=x-1 or... in numbers 4=3)

Okay tried it, it worked...
for the most part, it didn't exit if it was less than one life, and also there is a problem with my health bar! Even if the health bar is empty you still have some health left, how can I fix it so that if my health bar is empty that means that the player has zero life, and same for magic?

That is what I have, it regenerates the healthbar but it keeps doing that not stopping after five deaths.

I now hae a quick menu that states your current status, I hope to add status effects tomorrow so you can be poisoned along with a more complex attacking system in which armor is taken into account and your sword type along with status effects. And my menu looks cool.

You do realize that that code says that if I have 5 health then my hp goes back to being full, right, I think you meant lives so I'll try that.

I've almost finished a more complex system of damage dealt by the player, soon I'll be workign on the damage taken by the player. Also, I'm finally going to add more enemies and NPCS, now there will be 10 dragons, 25 demons, and 1 headless mutant zombie boss. Also you will only be able to fight the boss if you take the quest, it will even be recorded in a menu what quests you have. Also I hope to add the ability to change characters.

Okay, I have discovered something. In the code Gothboy gave me with the player health(the newest one) it says one my menu that the player haz zero lives and that after he' killed once he has -1 lives. Perplexing eh? Then if I replace playerhealth with lives it just allows me to have negative health.
I'm getting pissed, why won't the code work?

That doesn't seem right to me, all your doing is assigning a number (for identifying purposes?) to four variables... the array isn't used? And if the array is used to determine what sword you're carring, you don't need two data slots (0 and 1 - defined by DIM SWords(1))
So... unless i'm confused about what you're doing, a better system might be...

So that stores the damage dealt by each sword in the array Swords()
and then we have something like...

And that will make the different swords deal different damage... it's not pretty but... what you're looking for? Or I confused?

Now that I have time to explain my problemo.
Using multiple weapons in My RPG Game: Variables and arrays along with equations
so my problem is:
First variables that are realted:

The Array

I don't have anything else right now also, in my menu I have something that says what sword your isng but it has the number as 0 because the sword array doesn't treat the swords as strings and I want it so I can have what weapon is equipped displayed, catch my drift peeps?
So how can I fix it so that every thingworks and the sword being used can be ideentified and so that I can have the sword be changed? This is a key essential to me as I can imitate the code for armor if I get stuff that works.
BTW, the error I have is at line 29, arraysupscript or out of bounds or somthin' like that, at line 29 is the equation that calculates damage.

atkdamage =strength
strength= 20
That the right order? atkdamage = 0 if you have that line first...
Identifying weapons?

and if the damage is called from the swords() array then, all you have to do is change which part of the array is used... like I had in the code sample I used

So what exactly do I do with you first piece of code, if it was for my damage equation?

Huh? The equasion is what attack equals (look back at doug's original action snippet) which is atkdamage plus the weapon divided by the enemy's armor. I had it pretty much posted. But it doesn't work.
