Battle Script for PHP RPG Game...

[flame_211]

Ok, i need an alorithm for determining how much damage a player will do, and how many times to attack in a row, also maybe have it caluclate exp, etc, any help with something like this would be greatly appreciated, and deffinately rewarded, you would probably given a role as an admin in my game if you did this. BTW my game is at http://alltom.com/flame i got most things running, but I am haveing difficulty figuring out how the hell to make a battle script >_< all i can do is make it determine exactly what amount they will do(not acurately tho) and then each player attacks the other player exactly once... Remeber:

Create a function that makes a ratio between the defeated and the defeater. So, say the defeated's max HP was 40 and the player's is 20, and his attack is 1 - 5 while the player's was 1 - 3. Now let's look at this:

Pseudocode:

ratHP = defeated.maxhp / player.maxhp
ratLBW = defeated.weaponlowerbound / player.weaponlowerbound
ratHBW = defeated.weaponhigherbound / player.weaponhigherbound

exp = 100 * (ratHP * ratLBW * ratHBW)

It may make for interesting play, ex. if the player is david in a david-goliath 'situation', he would get a TON more experience (Say 100 hp vs. 20, =5x100). Which would be a lot.

Your game doesn't work for me. It displays nothing.
Logging in does nothing, clicking help does nothing...

I tried both Mozilla 1.2 and (ugh) IE 6

It's actually not even a valid HTML file: it has no html tags, nothing
