Equipment

[ac-arcana]

Is there anything in Cogito to support equipping things like armor? If not now, is it a planned future feature?

Right now I do not see equipment implemented.
In the devloglogan tutorial, there is this part about equip (see the timestamp). But not sure whats phazorknights thoughts are about this.
I guess it could be handeled the same way as the sanitiy (visibility) component.
Delete the line when you dont want it.

-When- this would get implemented, I would suggest a few tabs for the inventory, like a tab for armor, ones for consumables, one for weapons, one for quest items that the player better not be able to drop or sell, or maybe let them, replay value ;)

Gives me the idea of boots with springs, that would enable bunnyhopping, for sure bhopping needs to be not enabled at first.

I see this as very game-specific design and am not planning on implementing this.

That being said, the inventory system and the overall way attributes are set up should enable developers to implement this without facing too many hurdles.
Stuff like making custom slots or inventories that work equipment slots that only accept a certain type of inventory item are possible. So are attributes that would get influenced by them.

Sounds, good. If there are slots that can only accept a certain type of item, then that's what I was hoping for. 👍
Just the inventory side of things, not the mechanics of it.
