After taking out those... alien creatures, Boarfanger Man did what a hunter usually does when he defeats a monster.
Carve something out of the monsters.

Boarfanger Man only managed to saw off the fangs from one of the snakes when suddenly, the defeated monsters started vibrating vigorously, catching the hunter off-guard...

Obtained 2 Snake Fangs!

(click to show/hide)

Plastic-like cracking noises could be heard from the defeated snakes and slimes. After a quick pop, broken devices emerged from the hostile creatures, leaving piles of shattered metal on the ground. After recovering, the snakes and slimes fled the scene, seemingly confused.
Hil: That was a bit strange... Those things usually fight on relentlessly...

The king, now safe from threats, went on to congratulate the party.
King: Splendid job, travelers! I now understand that you all are more than capable of taking on the invaders. Please follow me. I need to show you around.

The party followed the king to a town near the port. There were armies of knights patroling the area, a few posted near a large bulletin board.
Knight 1: Welcome back, your majesty.
Knight 2: What has happened to the others, and who are those folks?
King: A pleasure to know my subjects are safe. I will send a medical unit to help the defeated soldiers. As for this group, they were sent to neutralize the threat.
Knight 1: Very well, sire.
Knight 2: Good timing! The scouts are coming with more information.

Just then, a troop of ninjas with black garbs come to the scene, carrying a large, rolled-up paper which they proceeded to unfold.
King: Travelers, meet the Tuberus military scouts. All this time, they have been collecting intel in secret to find weak points in Mechanus' forces.
Scout 1: Well met. Your majesty, we have finally found out the military formations of the Mechanus Armada!
Scout 2: It seems that their army is divided into 4 cardinal sectors, each one with specialised units.
Scout 3: If only we can decapitate the army...
King: Travelers, you displayed splenind abilities back at the port. I believe you have the potential to carry out this task. Scouts, please display the details on this board.

Pasting the large sheet, the scouts began to elaborate on the primary tasks to defeat Mechanus:
>The first cardinal sector is over at Tuberus Castle, where an army had taken over, forcing our king to be on the run. Defeat them and help us take back the Castle!
>Mechanus has claimed out largest and most abundant mine, the perpetually-frozen Glacio Cavern. The raw materials there can be deadly if they fall into the wrong hands!
>A major town has been taken over. Only a few escaped, while the rest had to live under harsh conditions at the hands of the sector. Crush them and end their tyrannical regime!
>Apparently a relatively-new sector, we saw Mechanus himself wandering a desert just away from the shore with a fraction of his army. A new base of operations is being built there. Handle the situation because it can be dangerous if left unchecked!

King: While you all are at it, our citizens are in dire need of assistance. Although we are doing out best, we would appreciate it greatly if you all can help the citizens out.

The king pointed to another part of the board, showing various requests posted by the populace of the land.
>Tuberus Health Bureau: Mechanus has set up a machine near an area with civilains. We concern for their wellbeing.
>Cpt. Eli: You think you got what it takes to take down the invasion? Come to the place I work in at these coordinates! ...
>Fracto Settlement: Our town is under attack! We call for a calvary to assist the falling army!
>General Store: The Mechanus army has blocked the delivery route for supplies. Please help for we need to provide for the refugees.

King: I herad that your transport has broken down too. We might look into that as well.

With 4 primary quests and 4 other missions on their hands, the party made their choice...

Alright guys. Time to get into the meat & bones of the game at last! In the bottom of the second spoiler, it's up to you all to decide which level you'd like to tackle first.
Your END and ENR have been restored. This will happen whenever you return to hub here.

A simple workaround would be do +1 when reading and writing the boss value. That way you can use 0 as "No boss assigned".

Can you please clarify this? As in, where exactly should I do this?

Alright, here is a simplified version of the scripting I extracted.

Code: [Select]

int whoisboss;

global int 60:bossprev;

script 702 OPEN
{
whoisboss = random(0, PlayerCount());
while(whoisboss == bossprev||!PlayerInGame(whoisboss)){whoisboss = random(0, PlayerCount());}
bossprev = whoisboss;
}

Alright, so with the global variables, I'm trying to devise a system where it would randomly choose a player. Then, the player data is saved into a variable, in which the value is carried over to the next map/round. This is to prevent the system from choosing the same player twice in a row.
However, the problem I am facing is that somehow, the system outright refuses to choose the first player to join the game, no matter how many rounds I played.

« on: August 31, 2017, 05:18:23 AM »

Anyone here happen to know how to make variables with values that carry over in spite of playing a different map/round? In case anyone brings it up, I tried using global/world variables, but when applied to player numbers, it can glitch out. I ask if anyone knows an effective alternative. Thanks in advance.

Camila: Squad, I will scout this area to make sure nobody is spying on us. Please call for help if you need it!

Hil: Good call.

With that, Camila investigated the area. Everything was seemingly quiet, as if the snakes and slimes were the only things present...

... until the party was approached by a stranger!
Hil: Guys! I think we recorded mysterious entity. Be wary of their intentions!

Hil: DATA GET!

Slime:
You know these pests. Always trying to chew on your toes! Anyway, they're quite easy; just note their body structure absorbs shock. Wonder how Mechanus has managed to scare them out of the wild, though...

A legless reptile that strikes fear in the hearts of many... I have nothing significant to say here. Just be careful of its venom, guys!

Hil: Focus on the battle! We'll deal with that later, but for now, we need to defend the King.

The party searched through the supplies during the flight earlier. Inside, they found some starter supplies.
Found 9 Gold Chunks, 5 Potion and 2 Antidotes.

(click to show/hide)

The knights looked on, progressively confused, as they heard the party explain themselves. That was when the King made a gesture to tell the knights to step aside as he approached the party.
King: Ah, yes. We are most delighted to recieve any assistance in this time of need. However, I am concerned of your safety as you are massively outnumbered by the Mechanus Armada.

Just then, a presence approached the party.
Hil: I have a bad feeling about this...

Out of the blue, the 2 knights passed out after feeling a stinging pain in their legs. Crawling over the defeated bodyguards, 2 Slimes and 2 Snakes approached the group.

BATTLE TIME!
Bass-Sama, Boarfanger Man, Ashie and Shepard vs. 1 Slime, 1 Snake [Battle A]
Simon & Finley, Wynn, Jusuke and Harold vs. 1 Slime, 1 Snake [Battle B]

Hil: Stay on your toes, folks! Show these simple creatures what you're made of! I'll try my best to feed you some info using the scanners on your headsets.

That's right! Whenever you encounter a new enemy type, they will be recorded by Mission Control. Be on the lookout for important information within his flavour text!
Monster Log:

Slime:
You know these pests. Always trying to chew on your toes! Anyway, they're quite easy; just note their body structure absorbs shock. Wonder how Mechanus has managed to scare them out of the wild, though...

Snake:
A legless reptile that strikes fear in the hearts of many... I have nothing significant to say here. Just be careful of its venom, guys!

As for the battle itself:
-You can perform a basic attack to deal out a weak non-elemental strike. This also recovers 1 point of ENR.
-You can use your skills.
-Items can give you an edge in battle, but equipment change cannot be done mid-battle without the proper skill.
-Defend your allies for that turn if necessary. You can guard one ally and take their blow, splitting the damage dealt. Keep in mind that this uses up a turn and depends on your INT, so if you are slower than all enemies on field, you basically wasted a move.
-When in a pinch or making a plan, switch out with other teammates, although it only works if allies are in the same general area and depends on INT. If multiple battles happen in the same area, you can also have party members on the field switch between battles!

Oh, yeah, I should also point out that the p stands for money.

Sorry for the delay, but the show must go on!

Boarfanger Man rummages through his pouch.
Found 200p and a Potion!

(click to show/hide)

With the team ready to leave, the group followed the General to some kind of airship landing area outside. There, they were greeted by a large cargo jet.
General Y: Folks, this is your mode of transportation to Tuberus. Inside, we have packaged some emergency supplies for your journey should you get in a pinch. Good luck on your journey, team!
Hil: Alright guys. Mechanus is many steps ahead of us, but this means we can knock him down a peg while he's on top of the world. With these headsets, I can see and hear your journey the whole way through. Anyway, see ya in the winners' circle!

The blue-clad fellow went back inside the base, preparing to play his part. The remaining party members boarded the cargo jet, which took of into the skies. The man piloting the ship looked at a mirror hung above the pilot's chamber, and sparked up a conversation with the party.
Pilot: Heyo people. How's the weather right now? Sit down and hang on to something. This thing isn't meant to carry people as it is these boxes.

A few hours dragged on, when a stray laser blast sped through besides one of the ship's side window. A loud explosion caused the cargo jet to tremble.
Pilot: Long-ranged attack! I should've listened to the General when he said using a non-combat ship to slip under Mechanus' radar was a bad idea! We're going down!
Cargo Jet Computer: ACTIVATING HOVER LAND.

As lasers barraged the cargo jet, it disappeared under the clouds as it gracefully descended to the ground. By a stroke of luck, the party ended up at a port area. They exited the cargo jet, now left smoking and in a state of disrepair.
Pilot: Would you look at that... We're gonna be stuck here until we get a repair crew to sort this out. Maybe you could look around, or stay here and talk. Whichever is fine by me.

While wandering the port, the party all heard static followed by a slightly-muffled voice coming through their headsets.
Hil: Hello. Do you read me? This is your boi, Mission Control. I timed your ride's GPS with your environment recodings. It seems that you're in Tuberus, so be on the lookout for Mechanus goons.
???: It came from over here, sir.
Hil: Watch out!

A pair of knights rushed in the party's general direction in battle-ready stances, followed by a king.
Hil: Oh my! That's the King of Tuberus himself! I wonder what he's doing out by the sea.
Knight 1: Stop right there, strangers!
Knight 2: How are we to know you are not in cahoots with that goblin?
Hil: This is your chance to tell the authorities about your situation. Let 'em know that you've been hired by another land to catch a fugitive; the goblin!

Alright, so here's the deal: You can still roleplay for previous cutscenes, but under two conditions:
-Please speficy which cutscene you are referring to through use of time frames and/or location.
-In the most recent cutscene, you can kinda interact with the game and slightly alter what I say next. However, that is not the case when you roleplay past cutscenes.

That aside, I also took the liberty to bold whatever is important in the current situation.
