RPG Combat

[thorn spire]

does anyone have a good template or tutorial video for deepwoken/soulslike-esque rpg combat that isnt ultra flashy strongest battlegrounds slop? ive been working on a game that im rather proud of so far, but scripting is NOT my specialty at all. the map is overall very empty and id like to have some basic enemies to fight.

@thorn spire yeah scripting a whole rpg following youtube tutorials is not gonna work

id recommend just finding a team already working on an rpg

[thorn spire]

thing is ion got the funds for that

[inland cairn]

i mean like joining one

[thorn spire]

maybe ig

[inland cairn]

can i see the map

[thorn spire]

ye hollup

the maps honestly not close to finsihed but this is the basic idea of it

i jus like building huge stuff...

[inland cairn]

yeah looks cool

[thorn spire]

i want it to be mainly exploration based

but i still want just some sort of combat

i dont think id even add like several weapons or anything youd prolly just start with one sword and keep it the whole time

[rain fox]

enemies can be created with the use of Pathfindingservice;
you can check for certain player distance by calculating the magnitude (or distance) between a player and enemy

damage can be done with a simple .touched event

tutorials are often outdated and sometimes messy, id recommend starting fresh and coming up with custom features

[thorn spire]

do i just watch like a 70 hour playlist on everything scripting related at this point

[rain fox]

oh? so you arent a scripter? no offense but then that'd mean the tutorials would be useless aswell

[thorn spire]

yeah im not a scripter at all

ive managed to add a main menu to this and some npc dialogue but

thats basically it

[rain fox]

you could obviously hire scripters from #💵︱hiring but relying on tutorials is dumb and not worth it

[thorn spire]

if i could i would but ion got the funds

[rain fox]

you could attempt to hire people for future %'s of the game

though unlikely im sure youll find someone

granted they may not be experienced or professional but its a start.

or you could try learning scripting; luau in general is quite simple & when we account roblox's built-in services im sure you could learn decent scripting in under a month

[thorn spire]

gotta find a scripter who accepting 2 robux payments👀

[rain fox]

that could work too

TL:DR
tutorials are unreliable, ad-focused garbage.
hiring people for scripting is usually preferred.

swag money

[lunar sparrow]

[rain fox]
