Updates

[Master]

A couple of ideas for you.


Weapon/Armour upgrades/Enhancements.

You can purchase an item to add an upgrade or ehancement to your weapons.

Weapon/Armour starts at +0
Each succesful upgrade can add +1 to this and increase the total damage caused.
Armour would increase total defence

Another option is the enhancement of the weapon, maybe gems that add fire/ice attacks to it, could also alter name, silver dagger of Fire if gem used for eg.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Update to inventory.

Maybe show a 2d version of your character with current armour and weapon equiped, Admittedly might take a lot of coding to add this.
Also the slots in inventory should be more obvious, maybe a 20x20 grid that once full can't hold any more items.
Gives you option to add inventory extensions as a premium item.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Class update

Killing members of other classes increases your hate level with that class.
And increases your love (Couldn't think of another term with your own class.
Could maybe have an effect on fights between classes, maybe increase your attack or defence, or lower it based on this factor.

I second the vote for the addition of an avatar image with items equipped. This wouldn't be as hard as you may think. It's basically just a layered jpeg. Each item would have an avatar jpeg image and a layer number assigned to it. When the item is equipped, it adds that jpeg to that layer. Max of one jpeg per layer prevents clipping of graphics.

We plan to add this ourselves, but if it might get added as an update then it'd save me a ton of time.

It would be a nice addon but we are not graphically orientated so I am unsure if we can do it like that. We could do a backpack type thing but anything else would require a graphics designer to assist us.

You could use html for it, by having the character as the background image, and the 'overlay' as the cell image. thats all it would take in its basic form

If our 3d artist gave you some basic avatar and item images, you might be willing to add in the scripted functionality?
If so, I can ask her if she would be willing to to release the rights on some of her work. We already have a few hundred avatar/item images set to use with our game once we add this. So, if you only need the graphics, we might be able to offer a few high quality 3d layer-able png images. (If she agrees to it)

Yes, that would be great!
