Simple turn-based combat system with range and movement

Contrib - Tim Ashley Jenkins 2017

This is a version of the ‘turnbattle’ contrib that includes a system for abstract movement and positioning in combat, including distinction between melee and ranged attacks. In this system, a fighter or object’s exact position is not recorded - only their relative distance to other actors in combat.

In this example, the distance between two objects in combat is expressed as an integer value: 0 for “engaged” objects that are right next to each other, 1 for “reach” which is for objects that are near each other but not directly adjacent, and 2 for “range” for objects that are far apart.

When combat starts, all fighters are at reach with each other and other objects, and at range from any exits. On a fighter’s turn, they can use the “approach” command to move closer to an object, or the “withdraw” command to move further away from an object, either of which takes an action in combat. In this example, fighters are given two actions per turn, allowing them to move and attack in the same round, or to attack twice or move twice.

When you move toward an object, you will also move toward anything else that’s close to your target - the same goes for moving away from a target, which will also move you away from anything close to your target. Moving toward one target may also move you away from anything you’re already close to, but withdrawing from a target will never inadvertently bring you closer to anything else.

In this example, there are two attack commands. ‘Attack’ can only hit targets that are ‘engaged’ (range 0) with you. ‘Shoot’ can hit any target on the field, but cannot be used if you are engaged with any other fighters. In addition, strikes made with the ‘attack’ command are more accurate than ‘shoot’ attacks. This is only to provide an example of how melee and ranged attacks can be made to work differently - you can, of course, modify this to fit your rules system.

When in combat, the ranges of objects are also accounted for - you can’t pick up an object unless you’re engaged with it, and can’t give an object to another fighter without being engaged with them either. Dropped objects are automatically assigned a range of ‘engaged’ with the fighter who dropped them. Additionally, giving or getting an object will take an action in combat. Dropping an object does not take an action, but can only be done on your turn.

When combat ends, all range values are erased and all restrictions on getting or getting objects are lifted - distances are no longer tracked and objects in the same room can be considered to be in the same space, as is the default behavior of Evennia and most MUDs.

This system allows for strategies in combat involving movement and positioning to be implemented in your battle system without the use of a ‘grid’ of coordinates, which can be difficult and clunky to navigate in text and disadvantageous to players who use screen readers. This loose, narrative method of tracking position is based around how the matter is handled in tabletop RPGs played without a grid - typically, a character’s exact position in a room isn’t important, only their relative distance to other actors.

You may wish to expand this system with a method of distinguishing allies from enemies (to prevent allied characters from blocking your ranged attacks) as well as some method by which melee-focused characters can prevent enemies from withdrawing or punish them from doing so, such as by granting “attacks of opportunity” or something similar. If you wish, you can also expand the breadth of values allowed for range - rather than just 0, 1, and 2, you can allow ranges to go up to much higher values, and give attacks and movements more varying values for distance for a more granular system. You may also want to implement a system for fleeing or changing rooms in combat by approaching exits, which are objects placed in the range field like any other.

To install and test, import this module’s TBRangeCharacter object into your game’s character.py module:

from evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_range import TBRangeCharacter

And change your game’s character typeclass to inherit from TBRangeCharacter instead of the default:

class Character(TBRangeCharacter):

Do the same thing in your game’s objects.py module for TBRangeObject:

from evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_range import TBRangeObject class Object(TBRangeObject):

Next, import this module into your default_cmdsets.py module:

from evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle import tb_range

And add the battle command set to your default command set:

# # any commands you add below will overload the default ones. # self.add(tb_range.BattleCmdSet())

This module is meant to be heavily expanded on, so you may want to copy it to your game’s ‘world’ folder and modify it there rather than importing it in your game and using it as-is.

class evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_range.RangedCombatRules

基类：evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_basic.BasicCombatRules

get_attack(attacker, defender, attack_type)

Returns a value for an attack roll.

参数

• attacker (obj) – Character doing the attacking

• defender (obj) – Character being attacked

• attack_type (str) – Type of attack (‘melee’ or ‘ranged’)

返回

attack_value (int) –

Attack roll value, compared against a defense value

to determine whether an attack hits or misses.

提示

By default, generates a random integer from 1 to 100 without using any properties from either the attacker or defender, and modifies the result based on whether it’s for a melee or ranged attack.

This can easily be expanded to return a value based on characters stats, equipment, and abilities. This is why the attacker and defender are passed to this function, even though nothing from either one are used in this example.

get_defense(attacker, defender, attack_type='melee')

Returns a value for defense, which an attack roll must equal or exceed in order for an attack to hit.

参数

• attacker (obj) – Character doing the attacking

• defender (obj) – Character being attacked

• attack_type (str) – Type of attack (‘melee’ or ‘ranged’)

返回

defense_value (int) –

Defense value, compared against an attack roll

to determine whether an attack hits or misses.

提示

By default, returns 50, not taking any properties of the defender or attacker into account.

As above, this can be expanded upon based on character stats and equipment.

get_range(obj1, obj2)

Gets the combat range between two objects.

参数

• obj1 (obj) – First object

• obj2 (obj) – Second object

返回

range (int or None) – Distance between two objects or None if not applicable

distance_inc(mover, target)

Function that increases distance in range field between mover and target.

参数

• mover (obj) – The object moving

• target (obj) – The object to be moved away from

distance_dec(mover, target)

Helper function that decreases distance in range field between mover and target.

参数

• mover (obj) – The object moving

• target (obj) – The object to be moved toward

approach(mover, target)

Manages a character’s whole approach, including changes in ranges to other characters.

参数

• mover (obj) – The object moving

• target (obj) – The object to be moved toward

提示

The mover will also automatically move toward any objects that are closer to the target than the mover is. The mover will also move away from anything they started out close to.

withdraw(mover, target)

Manages a character’s whole withdrawal, including changes in ranges to other characters.

参数

• mover (obj) – The object moving

• target (obj) – The object to be moved away from

提示

The mover will also automatically move away from objects that are close to the target of their withdrawl. The mover will never inadvertently move toward anything else while withdrawing - they can be considered to be moving to open space.

resolve_attack(attacker, defender, attack_value=None, defense_value=None, attack_type='melee')

Resolves an attack and outputs the result.

参数

• attacker (obj) – Character doing the attacking

• defender (obj) – Character being attacked

• attack_type (str) – Type of attack (melee or ranged)

提示

Even though the attack and defense values are calculated extremely simply, they are separated out into their own functions so that they are easier to expand upon.

combat_status_message(fighter)

Sends a message to a player with their current HP and distances to other fighters and objects. Called at turn start and by the ‘status’ command.

class evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_range.TBRangeTurnHandler(*args, **kwargs)

基类：evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_basic.TBBasicTurnHandler

This is the script that handles the progression of combat through turns. On creation (when a fight is started) it adds all combat-ready characters to its roster and then sorts them into a turn order. There can only be one fight going on in a single room at a time, so the script is assigned to a room as its object.

Fights persist until only one participant is left with any HP or all remaining participants choose to end the combat with the ‘disengage’ command.

rules = <evennia.contrib.game_systems.turnbattle.tb_range.RangedCombatRules object>

init_range(to_init)

Initializes range values for an object at the start of a fight.

参数

join_rangefield(to_init, anchor_obj=None, add_distance=0)

Adds a new object to the range field of a fight in progress.

参数

to_init (object) – Object to initialize range field for.

关键字参数

• anchor_obj (object) – Object to copy range values from, or None for a random object.

• add_distance (int) – Distance to put between to_init object and anchor object.

start_turn(character)

Readies a character for the start of their turn by replenishing their available actions and notifying them that their turn has come up.

参数

character (obj) – Character to be readied.

提示

In this example, characters are given two actions per turn. This allows characters to both move and attack in the same turn (or, alternately, move twice or attack twice).

join_fight(character)

Adds a new character to a fight already in progress.

参数

character (obj) – Character to be added to the fight.
