want a basic RPG tutorial

can anyone find one that is not a video or send some basics?

It's very vague, could you be more specific, like what kind of RPG, what part you can and can't do etc.

Yea, so a 4 way scroller with a turn based battle system? What do you already know how to do?

Ok, so you mostly need a battle system and a scrolling engine?

For the battle system, when you enter battle you should get it to add all available attacks to a list, and their average damage to another list, then when the player selects one, read the name and damage, subtract the enemy's defence, multiply by strengths/weaknesses and finally deal the damage.
