When making a JRPG combat system, the hardest part is handling multiple party members. If you don’t have multiple party members. Then it shouldn’t be as hard, but still, time-consuming.
Anyway, the way I would go about it is using a state machine.
ENUM{
START,
SORT_ARRAY, ## if you want to choose the first player to move based on speed
PLAYER CHOOSE MOVE,
SET ENEMY MOVES,
ROUND_RESULTS,
END_BATTLE,
CONTINUE
}
var state = START
And under the process function use the 'match' keyword. ( you don’t have to put everything under the process function or in the state machine some chunks of code are better off under a separate function )
func_process(delta):
match state:
START:
##code here
state = SORT
SORT:
CONTINUE:
if not dead:
State = START ## creates an endless loop until someone dies and you go into the end state
elif dead:
State = END_BATTLE
This is just a quick example, you can do a lot with a state machine. Heartbeast has a great tutorial on youtube about them. Not sure if you already tried using one, but I hope that helps some!
