you need to download the usb wand support plugin or the fairy dust module. 


But seriously... What do you mean by magic?

[Thriller]

        What I mean is like spells to kill your enemys

You have to be more specific on how you want it to be like, otherwise you wont get much help, as we are not designing the game for you.

[Khris]

Could you be a _tiny bit_ more specific?
Are you looking for how to set up a spell cursor mode?
An additional verb?
Key combos?

What kind of game is it gonna be? Quest for Glory-like? Or round based rpg combat?

MORE INFO.

          I'm going to make a Adventure/RPG  lets say like Runescape if you ever heard of that.

oh, well then...

Code: ags

int i;

function rock_anyclick() {
  if (Rand(100)>99) {
     player.inventory[iOre.ID]++;
     i++;
     if (i>10000) {
        player.mining_ability++;
        i=0;
     }
}

But seriously, you're trying to get us to specify a huge game mechanic. Work out how you get magic ability and spell points, work out how many point and ability you need for each type of spell and then come back and ask again.

 One more thing I dont know what those codes are or what they do.
lol all I know what to do is adding dialogs, changing rooms, pick up items and stuff like that.

And do you really want to make RPG? It is really difficult and there are more problems than only that with your experience (I know what I´m talking about , I´m making RPG too ).  Do you want to player has to use inventory item ( =spell) or do you want to make new cursor, like cast spell ?

[Thriller]

   I want the player to use inventory items like on Runescape there is rune if you know what i'm talking about lol, and what's your RPG name?

It's very possible to make a full-fledged RPG with AGS, but you have to get your way around its inner workings and scripting first. This'll take you about a few months.
If you get stuck with something specific, don't hesitate to ask here, but this isn't scripting 101.

OK one more question do you know how to make magic animations work i have some neat ones i would like to use.

[Khris]

Sorry, but that's standard stuff neatly explained in the manual's tutorial.
Basically, import the frames in the Sprite manager, put the anim together in the View editor, then animate something using that view.

[Thriller]

ok thank you i think i figured it out lol I'm sorry

..., and what's your RPG name?

Project RPG! 
If you will have any other problem, feel free to ask me- I think I handled some major things like XP, armors or healing.
