Inventory System & Equipment

New Video 9/7/2024

Easy to use inventory system that utilizes item IDs to track items in games. Allows stacking of items of the same ID, dropping items in groups or singular or even storing them in containers.

Containers have separate inventories that are all tracked and saved.
All "useable" Items can be deposited onto the hot bar.

Easy to understand equipment system with clear attribute modifications that change how the player currently looks. Armor and weapon meshes accurately change with what is equipped, and influence the stats of the player. Weapon types dictate the animations of the player used during attacks.

World System (In Progress)

World has a functioning Day and Night cycle, which influence the behaviors of the NPCs within it. Day and Night utilizes the Sun Position Calculator for general calculations and regulating the sun's movement.

The NPC AI have daily routines that change throughout the week.

Quest System

Simple and modular quest system designed to allow gathering, locations, dialogue/interaction, and kill count quest. Quest driven by dialogue, and accepting or denying them via dialogue are possible, as is the system checking inventory or stats.
