Battle System Updates

New Screenshots to show progress of my battle system

 
Notes: The sidebar is the CTB turn order list
Battlers in red are enemies, blue are actors, gold/yellow is the current battler
The list auto-updates while the player is browsing the command window
It also show images for each battler, right now for showcasing purposes, I just used images from the icon sheet.
 
 
When executing an action, the list only shows the current battler (to avoid some confusion on the list)

 
When a battler dies, it is removed from the list

Shared Storage Released!

I created a new script that allows you to create a shared storage file. The storages are accessible by any saves of your game, or even between games if you set it up to. You could also create multiple storages in just one file so you could make for example two drawer events that have completely different storages in it.

“This is something very new for Iraq, particularly in this area, and is of grave concern and does need to be addressed,” she said, according to Reuters.

When “the authorities” fail you, campus rapists go free

A really alarming thing to know.

Colleges look so serious and authoritative. They can fail you in life-altering waysColleges look so serious and authoritative. They can fail you in life-altering ways

Powerful story  about one female student’s attempt to get justice at a pair of upstate New York colleges, Hobart and William Smith, after being raped, from the front page of The New York Times:

Later, records show, a sexual-assault nurse offered this preliminary assessment: blunt force trauma within the last 24 hours indicating “intercourse with either multiple partners, multiple times or that the intercourse was very forceful.” The student said she could not recall the pool table encounter, but did remember being raped earlier in a fraternity-house bedroom.

The football player at the pool table had also been at the fraternity house — in both places with his pants down — but denied raping her, saying he was too tired after a football game to get an erection. Two other players, also accused of…
