You must be insane to write a full program like this in batch haha. I made a simple game once and it was just headache after headache. Anyway, sorry I can't help, just wanted to say it seems like it has potential and I'm really looking forward to the final version. Smile

Code:
@echo off setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION REM String, with words separated by spaces set pokemons=Caterpie Oddish Rattata Cubone set index=0 for %%A in (%pokemons%) do ( set pokemon[%index%] = %%A set /a index += 1 ) set pokemon set /a r=%random% %%!index! +1 set /a rnd=%r%-1 cls echo You are walking on tall grass echo Something is inside the grass echo A wild !pokemon[%rnd%]! has appeared pause

But I'm getting a blank space. Any ideas?

This is my output:

Code:
You are walking on tall grass Something is inside the grass A wild has appeared Press any key to continue . . .

A few FUCKING IMPORTANT things to be mentioned here.

1. FOR %%A in (%string%) ... won't work at all. Look up FOR /?, that kind of usage works only with files (instead of %string%). If you want to get the content of %string% separated by spaces you need something like this:

Code:
set s=Test Word Space

for /f "tokens=1-3" %%a in ('echo %s%') do (
    echo %%a
    echo %%b
    echo %%c
)

The above code would output:

Code:
Test
Word
Space

2. there are NO arrays in Batch. You can make your own pseudo-tables by assigning variables like %array[index]%, but that wouldn't be an array element, just a variable with "array[index]" for an identifier.

Why? In Batch it's just so easy to write a program like this.

Oh well it was worth a try. As you can see, I'm trying to achieve this:

!pokemon[%rnd%]!

So a random wild pokemon pops up.

But I guess I'll stop it right there, and perhaps change it to a situation-based game. Because I'd need pokemon as objects so they can have hp, attack and stuff. Maybe in C# or so.

Thanks a lot for your help. Never knew Batch, so it was a good opportunity for learning.

I'm having too much fun to let it go. Biggrin

Biggrin

Making it a bit mediocre now since I am unable handle the complexity in Batch myself.
Opening post updated with full code till now.

Still having trouble with Batch however.

After I choose an attack, it just closes on me.

Code:
:wildpokemon
echo A wild %wildpkmn% has appeared
echo.
echo %wildpkmn%: %wildpkmn%
set wildpkmn-lvl=2
set wildpkmn-hp=20
set wildpkmn-att=2
set wildpkmn-def=2
set wildpkmn-spd=2
set wildpkmn-spatt=2
set wildpkmn-spdef=2
echo.
echo %name%: Go %starter% I choose you!
echo %starter%: %starter%
pause

:wildpokemon-battle
cls
echo \---------------------------------------------------\
echo  \                 %wildpkmn% (Lvl %wildpkmn-lvl%)                \
echo   \---------------------------------------------------\
echo.
echo HP: %wildpkmn-hp%
echo.
echo.
echo \---------------------------------------------------\
echo  \                 %starter% (Lvl %starter-lvl%)                \
echo   \---------------------------------------------------\
echo.
echo HP: %starter-hp%
echo.
echo.
echo What do you want to do?
echo.
echo Enter option number to pick an option (1,2)
echo 1) Tackle Attack
echo 2) Bite
echo 3) [Run]

set /p wildpkmn-atk=
pause

set /a critical=%random% %%!1 +1

if '%wildpkmn-atk%' == '1' set impact-wildpkmn=((2*%wildpkmn-att%)/2)*(%critical%+1)
if '%wildpkmn-atk%' == '2' set impact-wildpkmn=((3*%wildpkmn-att%)/2)*(%critical%+1)

cls
echo \---------------------------------------------------\
echo  \                 %wildpkmn% (Lvl %wildpkmn-lvl%)                \
echo   \---------------------------------------------------\
echo.
echo HP: %wildpkmn-hp%

set wildpkmn-hp=%wildpkmn-hp%-(%impact-wildpkmn%-%wildpkmn-def%)

if '%critical%' == '0' echo %wildpkmn% lost %impact-wildpkmn% HP
if '%critical%' == '1' (
	echo Critical Hit!
	echo %wildpkmn% lost %impact-wildpkmn% HP
)

echo HP: %wildpkmn-hp%
echo.
if %wildpkmn-hp% <=0 goto wild-1-victory

I also want the wildpkmn-hp to be:

Code:
set wildpkmn-hp=%wildpkmn-lvl%*10

But I'm getting a Missing operator error.

So a random wild pokemon pops up.

These are your lines of code to define RND:

Code:
set /a r=%random% %%!index! +1
set /a rnd=%r%-1

Would you mind letting me know what you were trying/hoping to achieve with this? 'cause I just can't get what you wanted to get here.

It's not a problem to pop up a random Pokemon, when they're all already indicized.

Your buggy code:

Code:
set wildpkmn-hp=%wildpkmn-lvl%*10

Your better-be-new code:

Code:
set /a wildpkmn-hp=%wildpkmn-lvl%*10

To identify why it just "closes on you", open up a shell instance and invoke your script from over there. It should not close, so that you can read the error message and identify the problem.

Wow Coder-San, it seems like you put a heck-load of amount of work and time into this, I'll plan on playing it later on and see what I think! :Grin:
