Topic: Still Alive!

Sorry guys, I got a sinus infection, followed by bronchitis, and have taken on the work of two additional people at work. This has all eaten into my Muties time. I'm happy to say, though, that I believe the code changes are finished!

Right now, I'm putting in the rest of the new power-ups and mutations, and I need to edit some items. Then all that should be left is to test the conversion process.

Remember as mentioned in other posts, if you want your initial SMACK distribution or species to be different than the new default, let me know before implementation.

My favorite new power-up is Kneecap Buster...an aimed attack that has a chance to completely immobilize the target.

Re: Still Alive!

I'm currently writing the "migration page". Existing players will be redirected to this page to transition their character to the new system before playing. This is pretty much the final piece in this big mess. I'll need to check a few items and scripts to make sure they're ready, and I'm toying with another adjustment to the loot system...but it's almost done!

This reminds me that I meant to ask what you guys thought about this idea:

Getting rid of inventory limits completely.

Basically, you cold hold any number of any item. Mutations/power-ups that add slots would just go away. You have no idea how much doing this would simplify the code.

Re: Still Alive!

More slots to hold more stuff is always a good thing.  Making the code easier for you to work on is just an added bonus!!

I think I've experienced this deja vu before...
