A few questions
« on: November 02, 2008, 04:11:50 am »
Are there any plan's for these?

Character specific skills -


--Running-- (run augmented either by endurance or speed through a skill when below X weight)

I think this should be added considering some characters should simply be able to outrun others no? I also think there should be two different speed's above walk instead of one (jogging and run)

Weight should greatly impact run but not as much for a fast hiking speed or jog


--Travel--

Well as many of us know training helps when traveling while weighted down, lets face it... If you do not know how to pack you will not be able to travel as easily... Also you will need experience traveling with a heavy pack for your body to get used to it correct?

This would be independent from current weight penalties (and realistically there is enough to warrant similar skill's for armor worn while traveling...)


Animation change during X condition

Are there any plan's for your character to become winded and slow down before his/her endurance gives out? And what about the possibility that becoming drunk would make you unable to run (or jog or whatever) for a while as well as making you stagger or fight worse (or depending maybe even preform better)

Really who's to say dwarves do not fight and mine better drunk?

Now i know that height and weight also come in to the factor, A dwarven ball of muscle is not going to beat a agile elf like race in a foot race... But he most likely will with both of them carrying a large pack of ore (or wearing chainmail)



Anyway on a side note - racial advantage in travel is really no different than other racial differences in planeshift.
