Hmm... I wasn't quite sure which exacty Category to put this thread in, but, Preview seemed good enough.
Anyway, I've been fiddling around with something for a bit, and I'm actually very pleased with what I've come up with. I have a new potion system!
The way it works, is, you have 'Small', 'Medium', 'Large', and 'Massive' potions, in the categories of 'Healing Elixirs', 'Strength Potions', 'Defense Potions', and 'Magic Potions'. Basically, the bigger the size, the more health/strength/defense/magic the potion gives you. That's just the basics, though.
I've taken the whole Stackables system that everyone's been using for a while now to a whole 'nother level! Instead of having each type of potion stack up in your inventory in different slots for different types of potions, I've used millions and millions of choice() and if statements to create a Potion Bag.
Basically, you 'use' the bag, you get the option of using a health elixir, or strength potion and so on. Then, after making your selection of which type of potion you want, you then get to choose the size of the potion you want. I actually think the whole thing is pretty cool, and am surprised it hasn't been done before. (At least I don't think it's been done before...)
I stole the graphic used for the bag in Erwin's Survival (I'm assuming it's free to use?) and used it for the potion bag, in case anyone was wondering.
Now, I have a question for you all, my fellow loyal worshippers of the Carcass of our Lord, The Dead Dragon: Should I release this to the Dink Network? I wasn't quite sure whether to simply keep it for personal use, and 'release' it in a D-Mod one day, or to release it as a pack now, so anyone can use it. Would you all like to see something like this uploaded? I, personally, believe it would be to the benefit of the Network, because these days, almost any file is a good file.
So, opinions?
Also, what do you think of the whole system?
