What could I possibly Do to make a Knock-Out System? I'm a very new Coder, so please bare with me. Or the Elysium one is good, your choice.

Don't repost the same topic just because you didn't receive a reply in less than an hour. You have to be patient and wait for someone to answer you.

Meh, well, since you posted, mind helping? And posts that aren't responded to in an hour are usually just left alone.

I'll try to but I'm not a very good coder -_-" anyway what do you mean by a knockout system?

When you reach a certain amount of HP your screen would go blank(black). Something like that.

Na. It's why he made the reference to Elysium the DragonBall game. It's pretty basic I could most probably do it, but I'm rusty haven't coded on BYOND in months upon months. So some BYOND savvy will come through the digital doors to help you so don't worry. Just give it a bit.

I've never played Elysium which is probably why I didn't really understand but yeah..

[EDIT]
I think I've played a DBz game that was a rip of Elysium so I might have an idea of what you were talking about....but anyway here's my attempt at making a training/knockout thingy.... -_-"
mob
    var //variables youll need
        Train = 0
        Health = 100
        Strength

mob
    verb
        Train()
            if(src.Train==0)//if they arent training
                if(src.Health >= 1)//make sure they have health
                    src. << "You begin to Train."//they start to train
                    src.Train=1
                    while(src.Health >= 1)//if their health is atleast 1 or greater
                        if(Train==1)
                            src.Strength += rand(1,2)//then their strength increases
                            src.Health -= rand(1,5)//but health decreases
                            src. << "You feel stronger."
                            sleep(50)//wait 5 seconds
                        else
                            return
                    if(src.Health <= 0)//if they have 0 or less health
                        src << "You blackout!"//then they blackout 
                        //and youll have you're screen black out here
                        src.Train = 0
                        return
                else
                    src. << "You don't have enough health to train!"
                    return
            if(src.Train==1)//if they are already training
                src. << "You stop resting."//they stop
                src.Train=0
                return

This is an attempt so I'm not really sure how well it will compare to more expert coders -_-" There are most likely better ways to do this
[EDIT(again...)]
sorry about constantly editing the code...I kept finding problems with it....should of tested it first =P

That would Probably Work, Now I just gotta make a Finish Off Verb to Kill them.
