Wow! That was really good! I was impressed by the D&D simulator, it was =
very good!=20
In response to your questions:
Initiative:
Well, this is entirely optional. Traditional D&D uses turn based combat =
because of the dice rolling involved. But, since the dice are automatic, =
that doesn't nessicarily mean it has to be turn based. But I tend to =
think turn based is a better idea.=20
Should a character have multiple attacks per round?
If we're looking at D&D yes and no. Traditional D&D says that once a =
fighter reaches a certain level he gets 2 attacks every 3 rounds. And it =
keeps going up to an extent. A Mage on the other hand can't because, =
well, he's a mage!.
Weapons:
Sounds like a good idea. From my own experiances I like to be able to =
choose from a variety of weapons. If you want to get really specific, =
different weapons should do more or less damage to different monsters.=20
E.g.
A sword would work well on a Human or Elf but not on a Rock Golem for =
obvious reasons.
A mace will work well on a Lich, but not well on a more 'fleshy' =
creature.
Characters:
The separation of character sounds interesting. But, do you mean =
updated by the program (if so I think: yes) or by the user?
I'm not clear on what you mean about the floppy's. Do you simply mean =
copying character files on discs?
Just so oyu know: I have acces to a Players Handbook, Dungeon Master's =
Guide, and Monstrous Manual.=20
Another thing you should know is that I am not exactly great at =
programing. I still have a lot to learn. I do know the basics and I've =
got a billion and one ideas!
One of these ideas is possibly (if you want) to transform this into a =
full-fledged game. Have you ever played Might and Magic 5?
Something like that, Oh yeah! We could use the Morfit 3D engine, but I'm =
not sure how hard that is!
I'm working on a program right now (it's small) but I will be working on =
the D&D simulator.
By the way, I'm using my Dad's e-mail account, my name is actually =
Thomas.
Bye.....and thanks!
-Thomas
--PS. do you want any graphics? I have a picture of every D&D monster on =
my computer. And spells might be a good idea.
