This is a really cool idea! I tried it out and found it to be really fun to customize. I've got a few ideas for future releases...

Feature Suggestions:

1. Have characters have a persistent set of skills
- As it is now, characters have a fixed set of skills that is re-defined every single time a battle starts.
- Trying to add a list of skills to a character definition (instead of using the addSkill() function) results in an error. Conversely, monsters don't have this problem, and you can add any number of skills you want inside the array of skills that it has.

2. Gaining new skills
- Characters should be able to have additional skills given to them upon leveling up or accessing an event (such as story progression).
- Should use the same addSkill() function that's used in skill_def.rpy, then add it to the persistent skill set (see suggestion #1 above)

3. Status effects
- Some of the code references this, but no actual status effects (poison, sleep, confusion, etc.) are defined anywhere.

default arrowhail = ActiveSkill("Arrow Hail", 10, 40, "bow", "all", img="arrowhail", back_row=True)

$ a.skills=[arrowhail, mindfreeze, thunderbolt]

Hello! I would like to use this code in a prototype that I am making for a narrative game. I don't know how to code. But I have a problem...

I wish I could make enemies can be preset rather than random. How can I define what enemy will be in a specific battle ... if at all?

• Added a way to use fixed sets of monsters instead of picking monsters at random
• Moved the skill definitions to battle_def, so now you can add a default set of skills for each character in char_def
• Changed the color of the monsters when they're dying
• Changed the duration of some pauses between attacks and actions
• Added "()" (empty parameter list) to all screen statements to make them load faster (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_optimization.html)
• Edited some of the sound files to make them shorter and less annoying
• Removed all "renpy.sound.stop()" statements (they weren't doing anything)

• Fixed a bug where a character would not die instantly when killed in the last monster's turn.
• Fixed a bug where cancelling the "Use Item" action would end the players turn after choosing another action.
• Added a "blank" transparent image for characters when they die, so the images will dissolve instead of disappearing instantly.
• Added monsters' HP in numbers under their health bar.
• Added a custom cursor.
• Replaced CharStats class with a generic character class to add more flexibility.
• Replaced the old function to randomize audios with PyTom's "Random Bag" function (https://patreon.renpy.org/python-tricks-2.html).
• Passive skills are now in a different attribute list: "p_skills".
• Changed the graphics and layout of the skill screen.
• Right-clicking works as a "Cancel" button on some screens now.
