(1/2) > >>

genny5b:
ok, so this is what i have thought about over some of my time:
 I. Fruit in the trees
  sometimes when i play, i cant heal myself or i'm too far away from a food source (like a village, an ncp, etc.) so i thought maybe we (by "we" i mean Tobias) could creat a new one! maybe we could get seeds (i havnt thought of where you might get them from yet) and maybe plant them to make a certian kind of fruit tree and that we could hit it and make fruit (apples, oranges, pears, etc.) then we could eat it and regain some health :D (i'm still kinda a noob and ik it's not THAT good so plz, just put up with my noobyness :'D) what do ya think?

P.S. could there also be weather? (i'll hav another post for this if u wana know about it)


[Mod-Edit: Weather effects have been implemented. ]

Berry:
I would the weather part! we have night and day so storms and rain would complete it!  ^^

genny5b:
exaclty :D i was thinking in some other places it could snow 2 and when it's sunny those lizards with flowers would get a little stronger :D (but i should keep this for the other post, ... i almost might not since u just explained it.)

Sounds like a pretty good idea - the animation would be a bit weird if the apples are high up, but it's a good idea nonetheless.

The game does support some weather effects, but it'd be a rather major change to consider:
- When would the weather effects change?
- How often would they change?
- How large of an area would change?
- Also, while it's easy to just enable a weather effect, it'll look weird if it goes from a bright and sunny day to showers and storms. You'd need transient states (where the sky darkens), which can be rather complex to add.
- I'm sort of wary about subtle effects (such as the lizards getting stronger when it's sunny), as few if any players would ever realize that. They'd get confused why a monster is suddenly stronger, and probably not associate it with the weather or the time (unless accompanied with less subtle hints, such as the flower of the lizards closing during night - which amounts to quite a lot of re-animating though).


To be honest, when I played World of Warcraft (which has all those weather effects), I barely cared about them. Sure, they were cool the first time you saw them (sandstorms in Tanaris, rain in Ashenvale), but apart from the first time I saw them, I barely remember them. Because of that, I think it's an overkill for as long as I'm pretty much the only one contributing to the game world's graphic files (not including some monsters), and something to put off for later.

genny5b:
first of all, (this is non-game related) LUCKY u actually can play world of Warcraft D: and i didn't know there was also weather in it! :D
 second, (game related) i can kinda image how hard that would be, but sometimes the more hard work u put into it, the better it truly is! :D but tobias, good luck making this game more awesome, (i cant image how rly!) ^U^
