Hello, I created a custom formula for the basic skill Attack.

I created a table in Excel to simulate different possible cases : http://www.mediafire.com/download/apn0v37fuow9gqe/D%C3%A9g%C3%A2ts.xlsx

You can change the level in top left, attacker values in top and defender values in left.

I created a Monster Test with 1 in defense and 1 in agility.

My actors are level 1, they have approximately 30 in attack and 20 in agility. According to the table, they should do between 2 and 10 damages but they do 0 damage. I don't know why. Can you help me, please ?
