Heya all :)

I plan on making a more or less linear rpg that will record/tell the tale all the great and funny events/past glory lived by many friends and I during the initial release of aion. (Before we get old and forget all those awesome memories!)

I used to be an avid rm2k3 user but this time I think I will use rmxp.

However, I am having a hard time fumbling through all the scripts and resources trying to decide what I might need; so if it is ok I will try to explain the game plan (pun intended) and see what you veterans think. :)


:: I would like the battle system to resemble something like zelda so that the battles don't take you away from current screen.

:: I would like to emulate an open world

:: Using a mouse to click skills similar to an mmo; is this what the XAS mouse action system does?

:: a random number generator would be amazing.

:: an mmo exp bar would also be neat.

Thank you guys for listening. :)

PS: If rpg maker ACE would be better for what I am doing, feel free to let me know why, because I am not apposed to changing; I just want the game to be the best I can make it.

What you're looking for is an ABS (Action Battle System). Google RMXP ABS. As far as I'm aware, the two most prominent options are Blizz-ABS and XAS ABS. These scripts are generally very intensive to get working, but are quite appealing to players if executed correctly.

:: I would like to emulate an open world
No script or resource will pull this off for you: this is entirely influenced by design decisions. 'Open world' can mean different things to different people - it'd probably be better if you clarify exactly what you're trying to pull off.

:: a random number generator would be amazing.
There is already a pseudo-random number generator built in to Ruby - the "rand" function. This will return a random float value. For more information, read this.

:: an mmo exp bar would also be neat.
This would not be difficult to create, if I understand what you mean (an experience gauge that changes in real time near the bottom of the screen is what I imagined).

Ace is currently more supported by the community at large than XP, so if you end up having to seek personalised scripts you're less likely to find help, I believe. However, the functions you are looking for will likely run smoother on Ace, but should probably be fine on XP anyway.
it's like a metaphor or something i don't know
