The biggest thing I can think of is continuous scrolling, rather than jumping from screen to screen.
I don't know, it'd be great, but then in other hand it'd be like a new game if there was no screens.. and screenlocks are really idyllic.
It would be a shame to get rid of them.
Anyways, I've thought about "continuous scrolling" much enough myself, and so far I think it's a good idea. Although it WILL change Dink a lot.
And here's a list of features I can rememorize in a couple of minutes, since I'm going to sleep soon: (Well, at least to read a book)
* Continuous scrolling
* More item/magic slots
* MP3 support
* IT support
* Allow larger maps, the thing someone mentioned earlier in this thread was real good.
* Better sp_follow brain (since in the current sp_follow followers get stuck in nearly everything and don't move diagonally)
* Make sp_nohard(); work. (not 100% sure if I wrote that correctly, it's a year since I last tested the command)
* Allow Mouse/keyboard at the same time
* Make command for mouse button 2 (or all the 3, although a few people have 3 mouse buttons today)
* Allow editing the levellup, like the amount of xp needed, maximum levels, all kinda stuff.
* Allow moving the number/health- bars on the status bar
* Allow "better looping" (don't really know the word here, since I don't know much about C)
* JPG/GIF/PCX/etc. support
* Multiplayer feature
* Fixes to the multible Dinkedit bugs, multi-screen feature etc. etc.
* Allow editing Dink's "nothing to do"- statements
* MUCH more global variables
* Allow editing the commands that take place when you press buttons like space, enter, ctrl, arrows, etc.
* Make a "command" or something, that allows player to write with the keyboard without having to "build" a contraption like used in SOB when answering to the riddles. (I use far too much "".. hrmph.. Mind me, I'm TIRED.)
* A better timer plz. (So no-one has to start a loop in the beginning of a dmod (like I do) that counts the time anymore.)
* Make a simple command to make dink not to die when his life reaches 0
* Allow to give Dink "more life" without the life bar going over the end of the status bar. (simply, allow making a life point thinner/smaller/have more lines.)
* If possible, make it possible to have other shapes of harnesses on items by editing the hardness than the quadrangle. (so that you don't have to edit the hardness of the screen anymore)
Hmm.. Yeah. I see myself I'm turning hard-to-understand, mindless, crazy, foolish and extremely tired.
Good night. I'll post all the great and- less great features I've ever had in mind as soon as I rememorize them. Well then. Sleep tight everybody. (everybody go to sleep, even if there was a day now in where you are.)
