Topic: Game Programming / Problem with Battle Characters Display

Hi developers, my problem is the next: I want to do a RPG game, i have the characters, the menus, the story, the world-map but i have to do a battle system.
I know how to do a battle system but i don’t know how to display the enemies.
I was thinking to make a different keyframe in the timeline for each enemie but if i have 50 enemies i won’t do 50 keyframes because you will have to wait a lot in the preloader. Anyway, i was thinking in much more ways but they won’t work.

What i want is know how do you display your characters and know how give them actions. Thanks

Topic: Game Programming / [AS3] Virtual Pet Game

mmm but i think the players won’t cheat because the only thing this “realtime” mechanism will do is descrease the hungry and happiness of your Pet. Do you think is a good idea?

Topic: Game Programming / [AS3] Virtual Pet Game

Hello Kongregate! I want to do a virtual pet game, all good. But i want this game was like in realtime or something like that. In my mind i was planning do this:
create 3 vars: hours, minutes and seconds that will say, well obviously hours,minutes and seconds. Ok, the game will autosave before you leave and when you come back, the script will compare the hour you left and the hour you came. Already compared, the hungry of you pet will descrease. Example: You left the game at 10:30:51 with 0 Hungry, and you come back at 12:08:43 watching that your Pet’s hungry is.. 5. Now… is this a good way to do a “realtime” pet game or is there another way?

Sorry for my bad English and i hope this explanation is understandable.
