I switch to the smaugfuss and i like it better than rom, but i can't seem to figure out how to change the exp rewards from mobs or the penalty for fleeing combat.

as of now, in the academy, my test characters are getting 2-3xp per kill. and fleeing combat penalizes you by about 1,260xp each time.

was wandering how easy this is to change, i don't know code and i am modifying everything through the games internal build system.

any advice will be good, though i won't be able to get you code bits to show anything until 11:30pm cst tonight.

thanks

XP on the kills depends on the mobs stats (level, hp, etc).

Don't forget you get XP on each hit too.

The exp loss is not much, compared to how much the player should be gaining. You just have to make the mobs the correct level/stats so XP gains are normal.
