Resident Evil 2: DISCUSSION THREAD

[Askthepizzaguy]

If you sent a question to Askthepizzaguy's inbox, it should have been answered by now. If you have not gotten an answer, swat me on the head and please re-send it.

Gladiator will take lots of work too, creativity in the writing side and also the fights will be interesting. If it weren't for Stildawn's tool he made me I would've probably caved under the pressure.

Hosting, although lots of work, is still very enjoyable though, IMO.

Hmph. Some of this stuff COULD be automated. There's a lot of tasks that could be easily repeatable by a computer 50 times.

Each automated function, however simple, could save me 30 minutes of work. I'll definitely ask about specific functions having a repeat tool.

This is all you need:

if (NotTown && SeesZack)
        dies;

Seriously let me know ATPG, I can pretty much code anything lol, even with hundreds of variables (though I'd rather not lol). It might be a bit late now to make a completely automated system which I could have at the beginning, but I can certainly make you some spot tools to tackle certain things quickly.

[Stildawn]

Sorry forgot my actual question.

If you have the time ATPG, could you make a table of contents list in your OP, linking to all your posts on rules, tutorials etc. They are hard to find in the massive thread lol.

Yup, it's time for something like this to happen, definitely.

One thing I am not particularly good at is organizing the large volume of things I juggle.

I need some time to think this over, and see which pieces can be fully automated.

Basically, all I want is tools to repeat certain tasks over and over. Battles are a bit too complicated to automate.

[El Barto]

Pizzaman, do the sun and moon affect visibility?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Not a lot of sunlight going to happen this game. It's 815 pm, and most of you will be dead before sunrise.

Nothings too complicated to automate lol. But yep let me know what you need.

Update:

Current Strength of the Zombie Horde:

• 36 Alpha Zombies
• El Gigante

Note: This information will be deliberately vague; sometimes not particularly accurate or precise.

[Double A]

You should've said 6^2 to screw with the people who don't know their exponentials.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I promise you, the screwing with people will commence very shortly.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Speaking of which, all of you in groups larger than two should be pooping yourselves right now, since there was no El Gigante attack.

He's still on the move, and he wants to crush your bones. You might have 15 minutes left to live.

This will be your only warning.

[Captain Blackadder]

I understand it is really late but I would like to sign up as a reserve. Haven't checked here in ages.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I understand it is really late but I would like to sign up as a reserve. Haven't checked here in ages.

Absolutely. Been wondering where you were, dude.

[Captain Blackadder]

Absolutely. Been wondering where you were, dude.

Also I hope that whoever is playing as Oswald Hamilton keeps up my fine tradition of living. Lol that is if he is in the game.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Please read all the rules and mechanics carefully, some things are different.

Also, you may be called to active duty sooner than you think. I know everyone got their orders in this time, but that was with a replacement person.

I can easily lose a player, have done so a few times before the game even started.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I'm having a devil of a time tracking down information about alliances. Does anybody remember whether making one is a free action, and what the benefits of one are?

You can form an alliance at any time.

All involved PM me your consent to it. It's done.

Basically, you know where the other person is even if they choose to hide within your zone of control, unless they betray you, you fight together and automatically do not target the other person unless you specifically tell me to.

Grenades like flash and hand grenade do not affect this person.

If this person is non-human, you still do not target them when attacking non-humans.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Addendum to the Interactive Phase Tutorial:

Combat is possible during the Interactive Phases.

Unfortunately that means you would have to include MovementPhase-like battle instructions for your battle behavior to be any different this Interactive Phase than from the previous phase.

Otherwise I'll accept your Movement Phase battle instructions as being the same.

This is an oversight on my part- battles during the Interactive phase will be rarer, I'd assume, but that was an assumption on my part.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Thanks for your queries. This game is complicated enough where your questions help me define the rules if they haven't been written out ahead of time.

[Ironside]

Also I hope that whoever is playing as Oswald Hamilton keeps up my fine tradition of living. Lol that is if he is in the game.

There's a Frank and Billy. So there's probably an Oswald as well. I don't think our chars are in the game though, bit unfair if you remember the old names.

And we would totally need to keep our stat boosts and weapons.

True but I was thinking we could still be some awesome npc's

[El Barto]

This is all you need:

There is no Town in this game, my dear Texan friend.

Not a lot of sunlight going to happen this game. It's 815 pm, and most of you will be dead before sunrise.

You've not answered about moonlight.

[Zack]

There is no Town in this game, my dear Texan friend.

....Yes there is.

[Nick Royale]

Barto spewing himself zombie.

[Montmorency]

One of the two is guaranteed town - which is it?

Well, you're obviously not
