This tutorial dives a little deeper into the combat engine. First, fixing a bug in the damage effects for spells and talents. Then, I also add a logger that logs the attacks made by the player and the mob. It still needs a little work, but it does function as I had expected. Finally, I added in a bit more equipment that the player could buy from the merchant. You can find the link to the tutorial on my blog&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/cynthiamcmahon.ca\/blog\/monogame-tutorials\/eyes-of-the-dragon-monogame-tutorials\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/cynthiamcmahon.ca\/blog\/monogame-tutorials\/eyes-of-the-dragon-monogame-tutorials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Eyes of the Dragon<\/a> page, or you can use this <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1dwuxZYu2Ge5Xt6cfKXCtqqqw7BG_bFnp\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\">direct link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s Next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Up next will be another tutorial on the combat engine. Some ideas are brewing in my head that I want to implement. Also, I do need to balance items so that a long sword will actually damage a full set of chain mail, which it should. It might do limited damage against a full set of plate mail, though. I hope to have that tutorial up on Wednesday. However, it might not be until Saturday that I can get it on the blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I didn&#8217;t work on my project today. Instead, I worked on my lesson for tomorrow. Usually, my lessons are on Monday. However, with the holiday here today, I pushed the lesson to tomorrow. I do intend to work on Silver Prophet, though. I was just busy with the tutorial and the lesson, instead. It feels like an age has passed since I have worked on it. Instead, I was working on Lost Fate. That is at an impasse until I can get funding, hopefully through Kickstarter. I want to give myself time to plan out a campaign before venturing down that path. Possibly even hire somebody to write it for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not much to add today. I&#8217;m, of course, happy to have another tutorial up on the blog. Also, I made excellent progress on my lesson for tomorrow. My student will enjoy it. Finally, I did create a Linux Mint partition on my laptop so I can work on releasing packages for Debian distributions of Linux. So, please keep visiting the blog for the latest news on my tutorials and other goodness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good luck with your game programming adventures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cynthia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have just shared MonoGame RPG Tutorial 49 in my Eyes of the Dragon tutorial series on my Google Drive.
