You had some questions about my battle system. First, I will *not* allow the player to move back. Short Range weapons (Swords, knives, axes) must be used up close, while long range weapons (bows, spears, throwing knives) can be used up close or far away, depending on their range rating. I think I may allow players to equip one long range and one short range weapon. Like a Sword and a Bow.
The speed stat is doable...I think. Let me xplain this. At the beginning of the battle everyone's speed rating is used to determine the order in the following formula.
Speed+(Random Number Below 1)/10
And the highest number goes first, and then the next highest, ect.
I hope this clears up your questions.
