I am making an RPG called Dungeon Diver as some of you may know. The library I posted below was originally just something I was going to do for DD, but since I know a lot of people could benifit from it, I decided to release it as a library.
I would like some more ideas on stuff I could turn into preferrably a library, or maybe a demo, that I could use in Dungeon Diver for something that would obviously be in the game (Something that many good RPGs would probably have in them). Please, throw ideas at me. The library below is for special effects, I enjoy making special effects in BYOND games a lot.
Try to think of stuff that people wouldn't have to build much upon. On the library below, they just need to make their own icons and then use the proc to execute it. I thought about an AI handeling library, since DD will likely have pretty advanced AI, but I know nobody would ever use that because they'd be confused by the library and would end up either making all of their own stuff or making something crude because they didn't know how to add on to the library, which it would need to be added on by them (Like many "Handeling" libraries used by Deadron and Theodis.
Please post your thoughts, and I will take everything into consideration.

What are some features you plan on using in DD, and I'll try to pick out some good libraries from them. =D
|
It's not things I already am putting in it, i want ideas of things like advanced systems I could put in it as well as make a library out of.
Just think Dungeon Crawler RPG. Like the post below, that can be pretty much used in any RPG so it doesn't matter too much what systems in DD I have. |
Another thing I don't want to see a suggestion for is an inventory system library. I have already put that stuff in DD and it's not the most flexible thing on the planet so I don't want to remake it for library use. I also don't want to release my DD graphics in a lib :D

Something that can create shapes by giving angles. Think of it...triangular, pentagonular, special...rhombular shapes!
|
Ooh! Having control over multiple mobs! Imagine, switching from one to another and saving as the other...Then when you play again, you take control of something completely different, and save with that one...The whole thingy! I've been trying this, but I keep getting runtime error-ish stuff. x.x
|
DD will have just a singular person you can be... Are you talking about some sort of spell? I don't quite understand.
By the way, I just thought of something I will make. A simple library for encoding entire savefiles, since I will use it in Dungeon Diver. I will leave it at the lowest level of protection, though, so I leave that to the game owner instead of letting hackers realize how to do it. |
A graphical user interface library that provides text, graphics, and stuff on the client's screen. :P
|
Nevermind about the encryption idea. It's too easy and it's explained elsewhere.
Jon -- I would think about it, but like I said before, I've made it already and it's inflexible. Please, more ideas! |
Shen, please don't post more spam my blog.
Any ideas before I go to work, people??? |
