i think we''d have to check out the code to see what is going wrong...can you post some of the code?

Oh, I''m sorry, I did''t know blue-lightning''s little club was exclusive. I guess I should try and lern how to do this stuff else were, a place were people are allowed to be a NewB. I guess blue-lightning knew everything from the beginning.

My club? What club? You can join my RPG team if that''s what you mean.

I''m not saying that you should learn elsewhere. But for the record, I learned programming before the internet was big. So I was never much of a newbie online. When I joined gamedev I had already made a basic game. I still don''t know everything though. For example I only know a little 3d stuff.

Try to fix your spelling errors. It looks bad in a mud if you don''t.

Okay, McChui keep in mind when I''m posting that I AM NOT trying to tell you not to make a MUD. However, if I were you I would not make a MUD just because you can''t do graphics. These can get as much if not MORE complicated than a graphical game. For instance, have you ever thought about making the vocabulary and combining words together? I am only telling you this because I thought like you did once also, why not make a mud since I couldn''t do graphics? I thought (being a newbie) that I would make one large case switch statement for everything the player might input. It worked when I made the basics of the game, but it was impossible to do all the combinations for everything. If you want to make a MUD, by all means do it, but you really have to have your heart into it and take the time to make the computer "think". In Teach Yourself Game Programming in 21 days by Andre Lamoth (an old DOS book), I think the last chapter is dedicated to making a text adventure. His code is extremely long and complicated (from a newbie''s perspective) and the world is still very limited. Well, happy coding!

But now I have another problem. When I loop it I do this:

while(PChp >= 0)

So it wont stop if the beast''s hp drops below 0, i tryed to put a second loop with:

while(beasthp >= 0)

but the program freezes. Is there a way to say that if 2 statements arn''t true stop?

Thanks jtecin, I thought about what you said for a while and desided to just make this a smal progect, just to build up my programming skills, I have actually learded a lot from just making this small program. Thanks again.

Sure, just do

while (beasthp >= 0 && PChp>= 0)

McChuie!! i forget to tell but i´m also making a RPG fighting engine like the one from darkmage139(nice job!!) but it will a lot more powerfull( if works... ) and if want i can e-mail it for you soon that i finish it. ( i want put it online so everyone can download it but will take a time until i get a web space...)
