I'm currently working on a proect in rm2k. I need to know how to use the password function better. I want have a blue glow appear in the top, left, or right corner when your being attacted by an enemy allowing you to use the corosponding button before the attack hits you, and block it. I'm thinking that i can use the password function for this after setting it on a timer. I'm currenty working on graphics where your enemies move when they attackyou can see what side they are going to swing their sword from in addition to the blue aura. Basically I'm trying to put kendo into a first person turn based rpg. I plan to give the enemy a similar defense too. Instead of their life bar when you swing at them and they "block" you will drain their vitality. When It runs out you will then kill them in one hit. Special moves will be multiple sword swings and the like. Eventually I'll work out a way to make a lunge button but I just need to figure out how to do the basics first. I've already got my storyline, enemies, locations, and items about finished, so if someone could give me an answer I would really appreaciate it. I'm kind of at a stand still until I can correct my battle system.Tell me if you think this is a good idea.

Well... sorry I asked... I'm still going for it anyways. However After figuring out how to use rpg maker 2000 to do the function I askede it worked to choppy. I've gotten farther in my understanding of C++ and shortly I should be able to experiment in it. If anyone still has an opinion about my ideas I woul like to hear them.
