This is the simplest that proper RPGs get. But for your purposes you can do a random amount of damage with every hit instead of using formulas like in this project.
that is waaaay to complex for me. The hardest part to understand is the variable. I know how variables work but not really in this game. If you could explain or make a simpler version, id really appreciate it. I'm trying to make Paper Mario game(at least i was) and that would really help.
Well whats wrong with the code in it? The graphics are slapped together but that obviously isn't the point of this project. The codes from this engine were adapted from an RPG engine programmed in flash actionscript.
It doesn't really have anything I would consider to be a glitch. This engine was made to calculate damage, but not to "kill" characters with less than 1 hp.
Yes I know it isn't hard to understand. It just has lots of weapons and power ups and what not that it gets into detail over. Sorry for advertising, but see: (link to project) not the best but I think it is pretty good for only 3 hours work (plus one hour upgrading). Though I meant to keep it simple so others could follow my example.
The mario RPG forumla document isn't that hard to understand. It's just really long because it goes into detail about all the different weapons and spells in the game.
It is as complex as RPG battle formula gets. Remember that Mario RPG was developed by the makers of final fantasy. For an online game putting in such a elaborate battle formula isn't really necessary and I don't know of a lot of online RPGs that have such elaborate forumlas.
True. Though I do think Final Fantasy is an excellent example of a complex RPG, what about Super Mario RPG, the legend of the seven stars? (Oh wait, I just realized that is a bad example...the Super Mario RPG, not Final Fantasy)

Actually, in mario RPG there are only a few formulas for calculating damage (3 I think). FF7 has about 7 or so for all the different attack types.

This is meant to be only an example. All of the parts where the talk bubbles are are meant to be replaced with animations or costume changes.

What was annoying about the code for Super Mario RPG was that all the attacks had different formulas for dealing the damage.

Do the sprites really need to say "idle"? If they aren't doing anything, it is pretty obvious that they are idle.

It wouldn't take that long to make an RPG if you know what you are doing. I could probably make something in 4 days.

RPGs can be very very complex. Final Fantasy is an example of a very complex RPG, and Adventure Quest is an example of a much less complex RPG.
