and here is the rar of all the images and the script and the script.cmd but i have removed the sound beacause it was 10 mb so just delete the line of code that says , i am trying to make a game but i have to make the title screen first, any help would be much appreciated.


ps. this is just the beta: version1.0 will have 50 cards, and version 2.0 will have 100 cards, and that might be it, but if people like it i will continue to0 update it

how would i set attack and defence points to each image/card, could i use variables and could it be used to determine how many life points to subtract.

Dont Do That If I Could Help I Would But Im Not Home Im Using My Cell Phone So I Cant Help

No It Can Play A Lot More And You Could Store Attk And Def Points In A Table

here is an example of what the cards on the game will be like, the big one is the card when it is in your hand and the little one is the card when its on the field

is this table good enough for this type of game, the table is for this card, here is the table

Quote:

mystical elf = { 800, 2000, 4, "[spellcaster]" }
mystical elf[1] = "attack"
mystical elf[2] = "defence"
mystical elf[3] = "level"
mystical elf[4] = "type"

---

or should the table be like this

Quote:

---

mystical_elf = { 800, 2000, 4, "[spellcaster]" }
attack = mystical_elf[1]
defence = mystical_elf[2]
level = mystical_elf[3]
type = mystical_elf[4]

---

ps> how do i make it so when that card id selected that information is printed to the screen next to it:confused:

do i do this

Quote:

---

screen:print(100, 100, mystical_elf[1],green)
screen:print(100, 140, mystical_elf[2],green)
screen:print(100, 180, mystical_elf[3],green)
screen:print(100, 220, mystical_elf[4],green)

I wish i was at home to help. Hope fully the good gizmo can help sooner then i can. All i can say is everithing he said is correct.

lmtlmt you can see he is not onlyne right now by the red button on under his avatar. So try not to keep on double posting for no reason. Now go under member list and hunt down a lua coder and send them a Pm if they can help they will trust me.
