No, I think you can use Mod for that, but I'm not sure quite how.

I think it would help if you made a couple of projects before embarking on something like this.

Follow an ABS tutorial so you can get a better idea
Try some other tutorials.
A CBS is not something you can just whip up if you dont know things like displaying numerics on screen or Creating Real time ABS elements. I think you may be in too deep here

Its basic Events, X Y's, variables and conditional branches.

If you cant figure it out, then a full on CBS probably isnt for you man.

Try finding a HUD tutorial, it should help you get the concepts.

no i kno how to do it its just dat if like for hp how  do i have to make a conditional branch to show each number on the screen?  like if the hp is 800 then i would have to make a conditional branch for each number from 0-800 right?

Youre displaying a variable with a picture file right?
So You need a Conditional Branch to handle ones, tens, hundreds, thousands.
And you need to use a show picture command for all of these digits.


Having 800 different branches just proves to me that you dont "kno how to do it"

Hey,Karlc can you tell me how to make a ATB system for CBS?
Title: Re: cbs questions
Post by: karlc on July 12, 2008, 04:46:07 AM
creat a variable equal to the amount of pictures for me i do 50( wouldn't recomend it tho)! long atb bar!
and then you wait like .X amount of seconds before adding 1 to the variable. and then when the variable is equal to 50 then attack!
