Turn-Based Battle Engine

[MOOGLEFIGHTER]

Does anybody have/know an open source, or tutorial on making Turn-Based Battle Engines? That I can decompile and learn quick?

// Movement
if (_root.turn==1&&_root.travel<_root.maxsteps&&Key.isDown(83)) {
_y += paceSpeed;
_root.travel++

For the movement, when it says 83, which button is it refering to.
If I were to replace the arrow keys in place of that number, what would I put?

Here's what I have so far:

Controls: wasd

I plan on adding enemies + items that replenish your energy.

Use that to figure out key numbers.

It's something different, I'm going to start trying making my own weapons.
Click the blue guy for instructions.

Pretty cool, post more updates when you have 'em!

I don;t think simply walking should take energy, attacking and runing yes, but not walking, come on...

make a one player mode, I would suggest making the sword swing wider, maybe a charge/spin attack, like in LOZ link to the past but that's just me, maybe more than one enemy, but these are just my ideas

[cryzabey]

it's kewl and all but way to easy to beat

[MOOGLEFIGHTER]

You can't beat it, it's a 3 player game, so all you are doing is playing with yourself. XD

[Malignus]

Yes...it would be cool if you could parry as well (by holding down shift, perhaps).
