Support alternate experience earnings due to status changes

#69

Set up the EXP rating system... Not everybody gets the same amount of EXP, a few random factors and a few fixed factors are taken to mind.

Some Enemy death stuff, like fading away

I cannot yet test this all, as there's still a lot of code to be written here....

No errors were reported in the process! I guess I did get a lot of warnings, hahaha!

And thus I'll run my compilation script!

NALA must be recompiled though

Such linking call stuff together

And Written the link code for NIL

I've Expanded the API with quick scale set ups (which I'll need to make the enemies die properly)

A bit of work!

Tons of "real life" stuff was in my way today

Yeah I did some work, even tough I had little time today

DOS Font operative, but won't be used in this game, still it's good to have ;)

Pixel replacer

I've enhanced TQMG with an animated picture loader the way BlitzMax and BlitzBasic feature it.... I simply need it for my by-project, but I guess I can also make NALA compatible with it... Not planned for the short term, though

It works now!

Perhaps it works now.... Let's see....

Wait a minute, I think I see it!

All the code I got renders what happens impossible, and yet it happens.... I think some extra lines of code are in order to find out what is really going on here....

And now to see why that bug pops up, as that is a pretty nasty one

Better!

take X

Is this better?

Too much

Test IX to make sure that part is well now, as the former is harder to do!

The latter was cosmetic and therefore easy to fix

And the coordinates of the status are bogus!

Status "Death" lights up regardless of the fact if that is accurate

Unneeded #accept clauses

Take VIII

Forgotten fot reference!

Idiot!

Take VII

Global issue

Take VI

Voided that

Dupe identifier, eh?

Take V

....

I should do that in my entire source

Take IV

Right!

NIL != C# and Lua != C# either

Take III

Just forgotten commas

Parse error

Take II

Okay, my previous tests were not valid, because I forgot the anyway generation.... I'm just stupid!

Let's test if that works!

Status changes displayed now when targeting

No more status changes

Take II

Let's go again!

I should've known

Take I

So let's at least test that!

None of this has been properly tested yet, though.... and all I can test for frankly now is making sure no errors pop up in compliation time

The full setup for status changes will come later, however this was needed to make sure death can be taken care of accordingly, which is technically also a status change.... Thanks to metatables I can death turn up automatically whenever HP gets to 0 and also automatically remove it when death HP go higher... This will get things a bit more on the move and prevent bugs.... At least, that's what I was hoping for....

I've set up some great meta scripts in order to do status changes....

It appears to be working here.... Good!

Some work done here!

CU L8ER!

Updated

Updated

Running

(At last)

AND NOW IT WORKS!

Take XXVII

So let's do it a bit slower so we can do it well...

I went a littlebit too fast here

Take XXVI

Oh, wait a minutes.... Let's try this!

Fix ignored.... as a matter of fact, this is even WORSE!

Issue spot

I'm gonna redo that to make sure this is really the case....

But I didn't see the points damage on screen

No more errors, but....

Take XXV

And thus I'm running my compilation script

I must recompile NALA for this

Extra methods to the RPG Points class

Take XXIV

Illegal function call

Take XXIII

Yeah, does that count as a fix?

Forgot to save, doh!

Take XXII

For real now?

Fix ignored!

Take XXI

I don't wanna talk about that!

Code typo

Take XX

Crash

Take XIX

Rounding issue

It APPEARS fixed

Take XVIII

But let's see what'll happen

I gtt it less and less

Take XVII will tell

Did I fix this?

???

Take XVI

Mistyping

Take XV

Self

Take XIV

This MUST work!

I always hate it when these happen

No good

and let's pray

Take XIII

I tried to void that

Lua has begun to see things that aren't there

Take XII

Whiner!

Take XI

Illegal function call

Take X

Illegal class usage

Take IX

The evil has been found, and killed.... I think

Take VIII

Let's see what will happen with this extra checkup line

But now it appears to have found a "nil" value for Executor.... How come?

All parse stage errors accounted for

Take VII

Wrong operator

Tale VI

Ah, NOW I get it!

Huh?

Take V

Accuracy error

Take IV

Many things

Yeah, it would save me time if I did those stupid things right from the start, eh?

Take III

Forgotten declaration

Take II

Declaration typo

Take I

Time to put it all to the test!

A debug line will tell me how much damage has been done, and how much a target het left

Which cannot yet be properly tested, though

Which is now done

And there's still work to be done here too

And hopefully it will go without any crap this time

Running

And here too

I did update this crap though

This has NOT yet been tested, so I ain't got a clue if this all works

Attack + Damage set up....

Accuracy check

Accuracy check support

I'll try to use the old code for this as much as possible... This makes sure the stat balancing is in order

Now that this works I can get onto the actual attacks and stuff...

All clear..... (for now)

Take XV

Case error in Hurt

Okay, I guess that's back on the move.... :-/

It appears to be caused due to a conflict with my backup tool :-/

It appears the repository that is tied to this DevLog has gone a bit haywire

Or Is that my imagination

Things really appear wrong here

Take XIV

Acceptance issue

Take XIII

And that should fix that stoooooooopid action

Established

Of course I forgot to make the Hurt messages visible

still pretty fast but acceptable now

Take XII

Slowed down the time gauge as this was really too fast

The last test was take XI and not IX, but sometimes when my computer lags (like now, due to the backup running in the background) things like key reversal sometimes happens (that or I made a mistake, but the former appears more likely, given the situation).

Works?

Take IX

Flicker stance effect

Take X

Illegal field

Take IX

Typo in code

Take VIII will have to answer this

I think I got this issue covered now, but I cannot be sure

Mesa Back!

BRB!

and purchase the bread I need

I'll first make a backup

And it won't be easy to get that one under control

I think I know why this happens

It keeps repeating itself and will never link through to the execution stage

Take VII

Did I fix that?

Kutverdommeselul!

Take VI

???

I take that as a "no"!

All parse stage errors appear to be accounted for, but does everything work now?
