could someone please post links to libraries for combat, armor(if separate from combat library), and hire-able soldiers (if one even exists) also weapons(again, if separate from combat library) Thanks a ton to the people who help me, and a thanks to those who have helped me so far, especially to Pix(your shop library and guide on how to use it helped me a ton, btw i got the offline editor because it's so much more useful)

I would like a working combat library because pixie's doesn't work

a 'working' library is impossible, as everyone's game is different. You got to do some work to implement any library into your own game. The best libraries, just make it the easiest to implement into your game, but you got to do that implementation.

here's the location of them:

http://textadventures.co.uk/forum/samples

and here's some/most/all of Pixie's libraries/guides transferred over to github:

https://github.com/ThePix/quest

there's Pixie's Combat Library (3 main versions of it: v1.0, v2.0, v3.0), which I think combines his combat + equipment + magic libraries, Pixie's equipment/clothing library (2-3 versions of it), Pixie's dialogue/conversation library, Pixie's shopping library, Pixie's clock/date/time library, Pixie's level (stat/attribute/character creation/lvlup selection) library (2 versions of it), Pixie even made his source code (or at least some of it - not sure if full or part code - hadn't looked at it yet) for his uber amazing'deeper' game available too, and many many more... (Most libraries/code samples are Pixie's)

there's Pertex' Combat Library ( http://textadventures.co.uk/forum/samples/topic/2660/library-rpg-elements )

and there's my combat code based upon Pertex' combat library ( http://textadventures.co.uk/forum/quest/topic/3348/noobie-hks-help-me-thread#22483 and http://textadventures.co.uk/forum/quest/topic/3348/noobie-hks-help-me-thread#22486 )

there's Sora's Stackable (item) library

there's Chase's wearables (equipment) library

there's Jay's (Jaynabonne's) random map generation libraries, there's Jay's conversion libraries, there's Jay's uber advanced 'spondre' (jumbled form of "respond" --- conversion/dialogue) game and even its source code is also publically available too, and more libraries/code-samples that I'm foregetting

there's many more libraries too... just scour through the 3 pages of the link at the very top (the 'libraries and code samples' forum board)

I would like a working combat library because pixie's doesn't work

If there is a bug in it, tell me the details and I will try to fix it. Were you using the version from here?
