I was hoping I would be able to push some concepts closer to completion, but for now I’m not entirely sure what new features we could try putting into the milestone. Maybe this coming week I’ll just have to pull out all the stops and go crazy with the concepts. Otherwise I’m just going to continue trying to implement the changes from my balance plan.
That being said, here are some features I think would be nice to see sometime soon:
- Movable parts in the editor: Being able to move parts would be really nice, I think a good cost, if any, would be around 2 or 5 per hex moved.
- Finish up the spawn system changes: I’m honestly not sure what is still undone, but I would prefer to implement the coming balance changes after it’s done as the processes depend heavily on the availability of compounds.
- disable engulfing for wall-type membranes: Should be relatively simple, will also need to change the tooltips to inform players they cannot engulf. Personally this change wont really be impactful until we revamp AI.
That being said, I am in support of placing AI into the milestone, the revamp is really needed for the game to be more exciting.
