Title: New items for players (at some point)
Post by: Venalan on September 01, 2017, 04:05:38 pm
So I'm in the middle of adding two new items which will evenutally be available to players.

The first is just making a bench already in PS a stand alone item.

The second is a quiver. This item will only function as a container in your inventory. You wont be able to hold or ware it or use it as a container during combat with ranged weapons. This would require additional server code to support its function during combat. So for now it will be a prop more than anythin else.

Nice, I thought that bench would be a good item years ago.  :thumbup:

I bet that quiver has more tris than some of the player character models.

Two problems, first, if you hold a container it messes up the inventory display so I don't want to make that something people will be exposed to if I can help it (you can see this if you hold a picnic basket). Second, I would love to make them equipable on the back but there are is attach points for the art to be displayed on characters backs, and I dont have access to be able to make one, and also the first bug would also come into play as well.

Me too, so I figured I would do it while working on this round of art stuff.

How about making it so that you can tie someone down to that bench  :devil:

There's the obvious workaround of doing 2 seperate items, one being nonequiable container and 2nd being equiable noncontainer right? Shouldn't be too hard to add item or two into database, but the 2nd issue might be a problem.

Good job anyways  O--)

True, if enough people really want to be able to hold a quiver in their hand as a prop only. We can add it.
