[RESOLVED] Difficulty Script Please?

[Karo Rushe]

Is there a way to make a Script that makes one decide the Difficulty level?
As in Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare, etc.?

And one that doesn't have like a Hundred useless lines...

[Blizzard]

I WAS going to say Seph's script before I read the 3rd sentence. What do you want to become harder in your game? Taking more damage, getting less EXP/Gold, etc...?

Taking More Damage, Less EXP/Gold, Monsters with Bigger Def and Lower Stats. =D

Manipulating the damage would be enough to make it look like enemies are stronger. By how many % do you want the enemy damage to increase and by how many % do you want the actor damage to decrease?
If you want everything, this would require more indepth editing of your scripts.

ENemies Increases By 30% Actors Decreases by 20%

stats are like so; ["Name",  HP, SP, STATS, EXP/GOLD, ITEM,***]

"Name" = Name of difficulty
These are set in %s so in rookie u can see the HP of the monsters are at 50%
STATS = agility, strength, etc. (by percent)
EXP/GOLD = the expierience or gold amount from monsters percentage
ITEM = Item gain percentage
and the last one im not sure... Well I might have these out of order then :/

[Karo Rushe]

Can I ask who made this Script?

[Blizzard]

It was made by KGC.
My script wouldn't have taken half of those lines. =/ Want me still to make it or are you gonna use KGC's? I think Damage, Gold and Exp would be the only ones that make some real sense. Sure, Item drop is fine, too, but I usually get annoyed if every little aspect of a game gets harder if you're playing a harder mode. =/ It might be a matter of taste though.

I Would like it to be made by Blizzard. I think your idea on Damage, Gold and Exp are more Reasonable.
Now that I think about it, I might get annoyed with a Boss That has a lot of Defence and suddenly The Harder it is, and it gains more Defence, the more annoying it becomes.

[Blizzard]

Alright, Damage, Gold and Exp. If I find the time, I can even do it today and post it already tomorrow.

[Karo Rushe]

Thanks.

If there's a way to also call a Scrupt to activate a different switch for each difficulty?

[Blizzard]

I was going put that in anyway.

[Karo Rushe]

I like that, that way, I can add different things in Each difficulty Level.

[Trenzer]

I've been looking for a script like this for awhile now, can't wait for Blizzard's version though.

I guess I wasn't the only one then.

[Trenzer]

Guess not

[italianstal1ion]

another one of my submitted scripts foiled by blizzard...

its a good thing though

[Blizzard]

Ok, I added it in v4.5b of Tons of Add-ons, since it was under 200 lines. =P

[Karo Rushe]

  Now that was Fast.

Thanx Blizzard.

Solved? Add [RESOLVED] to topic title

Yesterday when I came home I thought "Hm, I have to learn now... Meh, I'll make the script in 1~1.5 hours and then I'll learn. ^^"
