Turkey and stuffing are brain food Lots of progress tonight. Animations are lacking, but battles are being fought

Figured out a way to streamline follower abilities, making the follower battle menu versatile and efficient. Player attacks, then, if the follower has greater than 0 HP, the follower attacks If follower is dead, it goes straight into the between and then to the enemy.

Enemies will now choose a target and attack (65% chance it's the player, unless the follower is down, in which case, it's 100% the player). Picked some of my favorite enemies from PM2 to fill in for experimenting with different enemy types (ground/air/untouchable)

I got the battle scene looping appropriately, but with these enemies, however experimental, I can now get into the nitty gritty with attack and defense and not worry about them trying to talk to me like the poor stand-in NPCs

When all enemies have attacked, a check is made to see if we have any enemies left. If we do, loop back to the player. If not, ta-da! Battle's over

Working on battles. A little different than last time, aesthetically, but still the same basic idea

@abizrihays4

Doing some designing of the main village, mostly so I can get some connections in and get the next part of the opening cutscenes roughed in.

@abizrihays5

Battle State Machine is working Player chooses what to do, enemies choose what to do, and they even have variable rates of attack/defend/flee. Next step will be to actually start dealing damage

Today's accomplishments include a rather smooth state machine, a functioning opening cutscene, and name input. It's not pretty, but there aren't any bugs
