    I need some help learning to set up a RPG based game (prototype)

    I have a map more or less set up with props and what not, it isnt supposed to be pretty or anything, just work.

    What would be the best tutorial be to learn this? (up to date)

    All I need is to make 2 characters follow the player like a squad, have enemy spawn in an area (die if you leave) and be able to attack and kill them, with squad killing the enemy too.

    what do I need to do?

    I want to learn and I have the time.

    You need to break down each of your goals ;)

    People will probably tell you this is quite ambitious based on your lack of exp. All I'll say is that each task you have outlined will have 30 to 500 steps contained within.

    That said, look into:
    • Unity's navigation and pathfinding
    • AI tutorials
    • Unity's mecanim, as well as other tutorials on animation in general
    • Tracking health and ways to apply damage to objects
    • How to instantiate objects (and more realistically for an RPG, how to pool and recycle objects)
    There's no set answer to "How to make an RPG" It's a combination of many intricate systems that you need to learn, and then learn how to apply to your project.

    Hope that helps!
