Hello everyone,

I need a battle script for my future games. Currently, I'm using Yanfly's battle script for my story based games, but my future games will have a different battle style.

The characters will walk around, attack with swords, and throw objects or fireball/magic. The graphics and animation are easy to make, so is the sound.

I wish for a script that will "explain" how to create the AI movement , healthbar, and damage from the attacks. Most likely it has something to do with collision, following the player character in a certain range, and random movement.

Now there are scripts out there that do this (SAS - Sapphire Action System IV), but I wish to learn how and create my own. I have experience in programming and will understand if explained to me. Otherwise I will have to go and do a bunch of time consuming research.

Functions wanted:

• Healthbars (AI and player character)
• AI movement and damage.
• Melee and projectile attacking.
• Ability for other objects to take damage from attacks. (Like a lever being hit by a fireball to activate an event)

A good example is Zelda from NES. The Legend of Zelda NES
