Title: xp system how to?
Post by: invayne on April 18, 2015, 03:28:36 PM
been trying to figure this out but how would one go about  setting up a xp system that works off a linear curve so that the values will rise per lvl  ...  any info on this would be cool

What part are you stuck on?

Its pretty straightforward to maintain an XP variable, add to it when something happens like you killed a monster, then check if its over X number. If its over X number, multiply X number to increase the next goal and set the current XP variable to zero.

that part right there is there any way to create a curve? cause multiplying seems to be  kinda hard say you need 200 xp for 1 lvl if you multiply that by 2  its 400 im looking to do something more of a curve so its not so that you dont just get  as an example 400, 800, 1600, ect  so it be like 400 maybe for 2nd lvl to  get to lvl 2 then 760 for next lvl something along those lines

I think you could but I haven't messed with it. You could create a Curve with real values in the X and Y, then use the Sample Curve action to grab the xp goal at whatever level.

testing the sample curve never used it before so hopping it will do the trick i set up the curve to go from min to max lvl so hoping it will give a value between that not exactly sure how its suppose to work if theres no way to give it a values but we will see thanks lane
