Final Fantasy Republic Battle System v1.0
The conclusion of a multiple month progress.
===========================================
http://forums.ffrepublic.com/battle.php?s=
===========================================

Welcome to the Final Fantasy Republic Forums. Today, May 18, 2002, the Final Fantasy Republic Forums Battle System v1.0 was completed. The Battle System will be constantly evolving before your eyes, more versions, more upgrades, and more features back to back to back to back. To get more information on the new battle system, read below:

Guide
###########################
An interactive guide will be available tomorrow morning (Sunday morning).

Requirements
###########################
In order to battle with other members, you must follow the guidelines:

- A FFR Forums member (Not banned)
- A Job Class is defined for your account
- You've equipped all item slots (Accessories are only optional)
- Your HP is not set at '0'
- You've choosen that you're available for battling (myRepublic > Edit Options)

Getting Started
###########################
To get started go to the Battle Management page (link above). Once there, click on "Add Battle" in the top-right corner. Then select your opponent and what terrain you'd like to use. After that, it'll be created.

Now.. After a battle is created, your opponent must accept the battle by selecting "Accept" for that battle in their Battle CP. When they select "Accept", you can Start the battle by clicking on "Start". Once that's done, but users can go in and click on "Battle!" and battle.

Note: Only the user who started the battle may "Start" the battle.
Note: If the opponent selects "Reject" rather then "Accept", the battle will be closed. Therefore, they don't want to battle right now.

Credits
###########################
- The biggest thanks would go to Kaluriel from the Last Ray of Hope Forums (as well a member of FFR). Kaluriel supported our base code for our current version.
- Many thanks to neo of vB.org for helping me troubleshoot.
- A HUGE thanks to our beta testers, which were aerosol, Mewtwo, Nick, and Crater Seraph.
- Another big thanks to our members for being patient and riding out our many troubles here and there.

For The Record
###########################
There was a total of 3 files added to make the Battle System work. On top of that, 53 templates were made as well. If you include the Item Shops, Equip Management, and Sphere Grid (coming soon) there are a total of 89 templates and 6 files. There were also included a total of 8 new tables produced and managed in our Forums/Site database.

YAAAHHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! ACCEPT MY BATTLE REQUEST!!!! YAYAYAAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!! THANK YOU SO MUUUCH!!!!

EDIT: AFTERLAB!! BAAADD! I just found an error. I just tried to battle you.. I get a DB error.

Error = There seems to have been a slight problem with the Final Fantasy Republic Forums database.
Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.


EDIT Again: Sorry for sending so many battles. You probably got 4 emails. I was trying to get it to work by refreshing and trying again.

I had the same problem, but all of a sudden I could select you Element.

The thing seems to have a problem, it should update as soon as the other person attacks. I attacked, then waited. I typed in a message and it said I was already dead.

Hehe, check my stats AnkisethGallant, that's why I killed you so quickly. I could probably kill afterlab in hit too, I dunno why either...

Where are the stats?

I killed jly2klee in one shot. I think it's just random.
