If you haven''t read the thread of mine on the Game Programming board here at GameDev.net, I''m currently developing a Text-Based RPG using the QBasic programming language. I have coded it a bit but I''m thinking about scrapping that code and laying out the game first, then coding it. I think it would be better for me to completely lay out the entire game on paper, then code the game. I need to find a tutorial on coding Combat Systems. If you know where I can find one, please let me know. Master Conjurer
