Army

[airdude2]

Is there a way to make it so when you create an account, you get to start out with more then one character, like you start out with four people, all level at the same time, but each attacks and you can move each of them around seprately, or together. Like a game when you select one you can move it and the rest follow you and when they die they die seprately. like a war game.

If there is a way to do this please tell me, :D Thanks: Airdude2

just to make sure, you mean a Legend of Zelda: 4 swords style game play? 

2nd… Isnt that what parties are for in MMORPG games? O.o

[creatorfromhell]

no thats not what parties are for.

  Also he means for example:
      Let's say you have 4 checkers with unlimited moves. You can control all of them, but they die seperatly. Kinda like NFL games and stuff like halo wars.

[airdude2]

yea,  what creator said, :D is there a way to make it so each player controlls a small army/group of people ?

[Ruins of Hell]

Yes there is, but there's no tutorials for it. We don't do requests.

Anyway, you'd probably look at how movement is processed to start, and check which character the player is moving. Then you'd have to allow the player to update the position of all his friends, if they're alive. You'd have to keep track of everyone's health, MP, all the stuff you normally keep track of.

If you are new or for the most part don't know how to program in VB6, I recommend you just let this idea go for now. It requires too many changes and unless you can pay someone a hefty amount to code it in for you, you're pretty much skrewed as I don't think anyone would fulfill that kind of request for free.
