New Shop System!

Postby Wildspark » Fri Dec 04, 2009 1:31 pm

We here at the Kingdoms Tower are very easily distracted, as some of you may have noticed. Butterflies, glitter, ponies, all these things are like candy to to our ADHD brains.

So it was that when I sat down this morning to install the latest Battle System fix I happened to walk my character into the Grocer's shop. "Wow," I thought "This is really ugly. I should fix this." So I did. Honestly, it was surprisingly easy. And so, ladies and gentlemen, I give you - the new Shop System!

The changes are really more aesthetic than anything else, and we're not totally finished working on it. Two of the features I'll be working on throughout the day are:
1. Dialogs for the shopkeepers (And associated quests)
2. A special kind of shop where you can sell things.

However, for all intents and purposes, the new shops are up and running and ready for use. I'll update this topic when the new features are installed.

Happy shopping!

Feature #2, "A special kind of shop where you can sell things" is now completed. Except we did away with the idea of seperate shops for selling things - it would have cluttered up Derasburg. Instead, you can now sell things to the normal shopkeepers - each of them will buy whatever kind of item they sell (So you can sell food and drink at the Grocer, weapons at the Steamsmith, armour at the Armourer and potions to the girl in the cave).

More shops will be popping up over time, that sell (And therefore buy) new items. So if you can't sell something just yet, then be patient - sooner or later a shop will pop-up that you can sell your stuff to.

Next up - dialogues for the shopkeepers!

Feature #1: "Dialogs for the shopkeepers (And associated quests)" is now done. Well, done-ish. The coding is all in place and you can actually talk to the shopkeepers - they just don't have anything to say right now.

I'll add actual dialogue and questlines tomorrow. For now, I'm just too tired.

Happy shopping!
