I trigger combat in the game. The characters wallop the baddies and get the goods. They receive X gold and Y experience. When I check the status screen, I see that the gold has indeed been added to the party but the experience has not. They are still back at their default experience. I check the variables quickly and see that the running tally of experience earned has been updated properly but something must be wrong with the scripts because the characters never receive the experience and can never advance in levels. Please let me know how to correct this. I've made a cursory look at the scripts but that's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Can someone please give me the correct scripts and what they should say so I can compare them to what I have already. I have also posted this issue in the RPG Maker 2 forum.
