0000138: Locations where Icons might still be useful

Thu, 24 Oct 2024 00:46:56 +0000

This is NOT stuff that in my opinion needs to be in by EA release.

Maps Window

One icon to rule them all would work fine here, this is a good spot to carry the Icon trend too. A fun idea might be to make 3 map types that have nothing to do with how maps are drawn, just for the sake of what icon to use.

And the three Map Types are Outside, Inside, and World. This would identify maps quicker once a lot of them are made. But this is purely an aesthetic idea.

Action Sequence Elements List

List Element Items

To my knowledge these are pretty much text, could use the text icon here.

Animations Frame Elements

Buttons

Icons on Buttons would help them standout more as some of them currently fall victim to blending into the UI too much and hiding.

What if Tolin made us our own version of the fx icon in excel, and we replace the calculator icon in the characters window with it?

Possible opportunity is using the same icons in the map database that are in the map editor with their appropriate labels

Especially useful for fighting other characters, etc.

0000177: Android/iOS Release Platform

APK's are just ZIP's. IPA's on iOS are also just ZIP's.

Copy the "Content" folder inside a pre-built package. The reference DLL's need to be built in (e.g. RPGCore and RPGCore.Interfaces) -- loading assemblies is not "valid" for this. More complicated systems will need to be developed in the future for build servers to put everything together.

These platforms likely need to use TitleContainer to load data from itself.

These can be pre-shipped.

Consider using KniEngine (using Blazor) - https://darkgenesis.zenithmoon.com/monogame-on-the-web-No-really!.html

0000178: Strategy Game Logic

This have been brought up often internally and externally, I figure it's a good idea to have this in the Research Column.

0000180: Platformer Logic

(DLC)

This is logic needed to update/run the editor in such a way that it swaps the Y and Z coordinates when trying to map something out.

Steps:

Tile Mesh Builder will switch these out; Map will have a configuration to know whether or not to switch these out. Ramps will be placed/applied/visualized differently in the map editor. Levels will effectively be drawn in 2D and adjust how they draw the structures, etc. (Sideways vs Top Down) Some Segments will be hidden inside the Editor, etc. New Game/Project Configuration will let you customize what is shown/hidden.

0000133: Option to show and hide cels outlines in preview window

Wed, 20 Mar 2024 01:33:02 +0000

It would help to see the cels during list setup and placing. Adding a checkbox to display/hide the outline would help.

I also don't think the list is using 100% of the screen width right now to setup the cels for my 4 item list.
