 ======Damage Logic======
 ----
-In RPG in a Box, any time one [[character]] attacks another [[character]], calculations are done to determine how much damage is applied to the [[character]] being attacked. If you'd like customize this logic for your game, you can do so by creating a [[script]] named "damage_logic" in your project. The name must be exact, including case. The script should return a numeric value, which will be used for the damage amount when one [[character]] attacks another. The **$attacker** and **$defender** variables  will be the attacking [[character]] and defending [[character]], respectively, so you can use these to check various [[stats_editor|stats]] or [[set_entity_property|properties]] of those characters. The **$weapon** variable will be the [[item]] [[codex]] of the attacking character's [[weapons|weapon]], or null if no [[weapons|weapon]] is equipped.

-Below is the Bauxite code for the default damage logic. You can take this and customize it as desired, or create your own logic from scratch! The only requirement is that the [[script]] returns a numeric value.
