Item Descriptions (Patreon)

Hey everyone,

So I pushed out a quick update to the game. Obviously there is no new content that should just add item descriptions to the items in the game. I mentioned I wanted to push this out so I thought I would just push a mini update up. A the moment this is just for the windows 64 branch. The others will get the update in a week or two. Just takes a bit longer to build for the other platforms.

If you're waiting for new content you can skip this one; it's more of an aesthetic change.

As always the link for the update is

I’ve got the new template tool working and I’m currently integrating it into the engine. I’m still working on that master character. I also want to link this into my character spawning system. Which is a little more tricky than I wanted but that’s just because the two systems are sort of speaking a separate language.

The core issue is this template is multi-use, so it can be used in different AI bases. But currently the character spawn system only spawns one type of character. Anyway not a huge thing to fix but I’ll have to add a new property to spawn a specific character type.

I’m just in the process of passing off the new tool to the writer to start experimenting with. Once they start inputting dialogue I can use that template to test and actually get the integration working properly. It’s likely that there will be a few growing pains associated with getting this thing working and putting some test stuff together will be helpful.

Anyway I’m going to get back to work!
