rite.
how would i make a sort of top-down shooty kind of thing.
what i need to know is:


how do i do the gun shooting?
how would i program A.I. (like movement and attack patterns)?


also, can mouselook be done? (this would be useful but not essential)

[BUT]

I'm thinking about making an RPG in AGS BUT I dont know how to do random battles (by which I mean, when you're walking around you get randomly attacked by enemies, like Final Fantasy style).

I personally think this is... OK.
Its for 'Vampire Saga' a humourous game set in ye olde days with a half-vampire.
This is the main character's home.



BTW, is it OK if I add to this post with more things related to my game for criticism, like, sometime later or something?

wen some1 is doing night and day in their game, do they use different bgs for night time and daytime?

I've got the music.vox file and a music file in it and I've set the room to play music 1 on load but when I start up the game, the music wont play?
what's up with that?
btw, the music is in .wav format.

I know this sounds stupid but what FREE program is good for doing music for your game?
Please provide links, thanx.

The first mission is near completion. I will create a demo including the first mission and training, just a couple of scripting stuff and rooms need to be freshen'd up beforehand so expect it round the end of the week.

is there a way to have a sort of conditional command thing like 'if score is...' and if so, how?
