type weapon :
record
name : string
kind : string
power : int
speed : int
end record

type player :
record
inventory : array 1 .. 10 of weapon
race,name : string
health, mana, level, experience : int
end record

%now let's declare 3 players
var player1, player2, player3 : player
%now you can input what ever u want to inventory like this :
player1.health:=100
player1.race:="Dumbass"
player1.name:="Homer Simpson"
player1.inventory (1).name := "dwarf battle sword"
player1.inventory (1).kind := "sword"
player1.inventory (1).power := 100
player1.inventory (1).speed := 200

player2.health:=100
player2.race:="Human"
player2.name:="Tony"
player2.inventory (1).name := "Viking AXE"
player2.inventory (1).kind := "AXE"
player2.inventory (1).power := 1000
player2.inventory (1).speed := 100
player2.inventory (2).name := "small AXE"
player2.inventory (2).kind := "AXE"
player2.inventory (2).power := 50
player2.inventory (2).speed := 400

player2.health:=100
player2.race:="elf"
player2.name:="some name"
player2.inventory (1).name := "dwarf hammer"
player2.inventory (1).kind := "hammer"
player2.inventory (1).power := 2000
player2.inventory (1).speed := 100

In the rpg that i'm making, I'm planning on creating a Workshop where you can combine two of your armor or two of your weapons together to create a better weapon. What would be the easiest way to check what equipment i have equipped and in my "inventory"?

that makes sense...except for the viking axe shouldn't it technically be inventory (2)? Also how would i go about doing it for 3 diff characters that use 3 diff weapons?? and also have it check for the weapons in the workshop procedure?

I'll work on that...now, another question with regards to this..The damage bonus of my weapons are determined by my formula: dmb=lvlrequired+(rmlv+lvl)/.25lvl Where RMLV is a random # between lvr and lvr+lvl So how could I make that work? This is what I got so far but it says that it is a mistake or assigned the wrong value. var rmlv : int randomize var lvl : int := 1 randint (rmlv, 1, 1 + lvl) type weapon : record name : string lvr : int dmb : int end record var inventory : array 1 .. 10 of weapon %now you can input what ever u want to inventory like this : inventory (1).name := "dwarf battle sword" inventory (1).lvr := 1 inventory (1).dmb := inventory (1).lvr + (rmlv + lvl) / .25 * lvl

you're getting that error because inventory (1).dmb is an int... but you have a real value (.25) in your equation if you make your equation this... inventory (1).dmb := inventory (1).lvr + round ((rmlv + lvl) / 0.25) * lvl it should work (by adding in the round you are turning what used to be a real value into an integer)

did that but its giving me this error: Assigned value is the wrong type for this part of my formula: inventory (1).dmb := inventory (1).lvr + round (rmlv + lvl) / (.25 * lvl)

Archi wrote: inventory (1).dmb := inventory (1).lvr + round (rmlv + lvl) / (.25 * lvl) that part, when you use the "/" sign, you get a real number, so use div, or have your round somewhere else.

Thanks, now i need to figure out how to really make the workshop work properly. I need someway to check which weapon/armor they have equipped and which they have in their inventory. And use a formula to make the new weapons damage bonus and also rename the current weapon/armor depending on which weapons/armor were combined...You guys have any suggestions?
