Scratch

I look forward to seeing what you can do. This will be interesting.

I have thought about re-doing my pokemon game, but I think that I will pass o this collab. Good luck though. 

I'm currently working on improving the battle system.
The only thing I've done so far is making the escape system work exactly like pokemon.

OK: It stamps the monster and changes the name and health variables to that certain monster. It does this by referring to the variable current_Mon.

...Master. Necro MASTER. Sheesh. BTW, I was 7 when I made up that name. And are you saying my song is bad?

No, your song is awesome. I could never do better than that.

Lol sry Necromaster. Your song is great, you are currently my number 1 pic for music composer. But it anyone happens to out do you, then I will have to pick them.

Arch, do you have the map maker up yet?

I have assignements due Wednesday so I will start it on Thursday.

Alternatively, you can code up your own accurate pokemon battle engine clone and I can consider you for this.

Might try this.

First battle system thing.
Added Evasion.
Removed stuff in Collab Monsters that's not part of pokemon (heartless angel, curse, monsters)
Added one pokemon, Bulbasaur.
Made escaping work how it does in pokemon.
Made stats work how they do in pokemon. (With the exception of EVs)
Added IVs, which create variation in stats between pokemon of the same species.
Some other stuff that I forgot about.

May I make a battle engine instead?

We spent A LOT of time with the current one. If you can look at the current on and say how to improve it I will let you do whatever you want if it would make it better.

I think he's talking about making a pokemon battle engine so he can be qualified to become a programmer in this collab.

Oh yeah that is acceptable, but it has to be a perfect/near perfect clone.

Uh.
That's not how it works at all.
We're trying to create an accurate pokemon clone, and we already are working on the battle system, and it'll be separate from the map.

I've decided to make my own Pokemon-like clone. Good day, gentleman.

EDIT: But you can still use my idea for a name, Pokemon Finale.

There are some good things about that project. The battle formula seems to be there and working but that project has pretty poor scalability. What I mean by that is that if you wanted to add 100 more moves and monsters, you would need way more scripts, but for collab monsters you just need to insert new values into lists. Also the way the maps are set up have the same problem, to much coding for each area when only insertion of new values should be required.

So other than scalability that project seems pretty good. I hope for this version to be similar to yours, only much bigger like a full game. I'll consider you for inclusion in this, the only problem is if you can't give too much time then you may not be able to help when needed.
