About a week ago i added an EXP bar and Delay bar.

The EXP bar is pretty straight forward, Its a blue bar down the bottom that just shows you how much exp you've got.


The Delay bar is something quite new and different. Delay happens when you take time to make a move. The longer you take to make a move the bigger the delay. Particular skills (especially powerful ones) also add onto this delay.

The two bars on the left is the delay you've totaled. The person with the lowest delay always attacks until the opponents delay becomes lower. Often the player won't get more than 2 attacks before they swap turns.

The top bar shows how much time is remaining for your turn, and so you know how long your move has taken.

The orange bar on the right also shows how much time you have taken, or how much time is remaining. When it reaches the bottom you lose your turn.

Now no one will chat during the fight. Also you need to send me what the new skills xml looks like so I can put the delay thing in the character editor.

Ill add an option for friendly battles where time taken doesn't matter. This is for competition mostly.

Its the same. Skill delay has always been around, just not real delay.
