[Zoroark173]

Hello everybody! Here is Zoroark173 with my first released program! I plan on making a multitude of programs, but I shall start you all of with a game that I have made! Note, this is the very first version of the game, so there are many features in it that might be missing that I will add over time!

Installation: To install any of my games, open your computer in game and type in:

pastebin get {pastebin id} {program name}

This will allow you to use pastebin to get any of my programs automagically uploaded to your computer!
Or you can do it the manual wat buy making the .text file in your computers file in your worlds save folder...

SwordQuest v1.1!
In the game SwordQuest, you travel across the land, fighting deadly monsters while trying to stay alive!

People with permssion so far: @NDFJay - in the NDF-OS

Make an else for when you type in 1, 2, or 3 because then if you type 4. It doesn't do anything. Make it restart then and give an error message.

[Zoroark173]

Version 1.1 is out! Read the changelog for info (Also, a secret Christmas Easter Egg :3 )

[remiX]

For when you get a random monster, these lines can be changed into two simple lines with a table:

var = math.random(1,6)
if var==1 then
  monster = "Goblin"
elseif var==2 then
  monster = "Giant Spider"
elseif var==3 then
  monster = "Dragon Hatchling"  
elseif var==4 then
  monster = "Possessed Santa Clause"
elseif var==5 then
  monster = "Zombie"
elseif var==6 then
  monster = "Skeleton"
end

to this:

t_monsters = {"Goblin", "Giant Spider", "Dragon Hatchling", "Possessed Santa Clause", "Zombie", "Skeleton"}
monster = t_monsters[math.random(1, #t_monsters)]

monster = t_monsters[math.random(1, #t_monsters)]

Thanks RemiX, but I like the way I have it, because it makes it super easy for someone to change it up, and implement their own monsters, without getting a bit confused, especially novice coders.

To add new monsters with remiX's solution it is actually easier to change it meaning less chance for issues arising from them missing to say change the 6 in math.random to add however many they added... to add a new monster to remiX's this is all you have to change

t_monsters = {"Goblin", "Giant Spider", "Dragon Hatchling", "Possessed Santa Clause", "Zombie", "Skeleton", "Some new mob" }

its that easy, there is nothing else to change because the math.random is dynamic to the size of the monsters table...

[remiX]

Yeah, all you have to do is add another string to the table of a new mob's name and it will work 100%. But don't let us force you, you can do it your way if you want

[Getalife]

Tables are always useful for situations like this

[Skullblade]

Bug:
when you exit you get the error"bios:133: Expected number"
