Equipment / Clothing System Preview
Added 2022-11-22 00:55:38 +0000 UTCHi!
Here's the first preview of the new equipment and clothing system.
There's multiple improvements still to be made but I like the simplicity, the general flow and how it fits with the updated tetris inventory system.
You will be able to test this at the end of this month with Patreon Dev Build #2.
Let me know what you think so far :)

This system is looking very functional already. Another person asked about the equipping behavior when you already have an item in the target slot. Personally I would love for the inventory to automatically bring up a stat comparison of the two items and allow me to pick whether to equip the new item or keep the item I had equipped. Compare systems exist in other games, but personally they are usually too cumbersome to be frequently useful. But a way to streamline the comparison UI would be very nice,

2022-11-22 10:19:14 +0000 UTCI love ot so far too, but th Pistol Holster is a good point! How about making a holster an additional gear item, which - when equipped - reduces the draw time of the pistol (instead of putting the pistol in a pocket or something like that) :)

2022-11-22 09:25:11 +0000 UTCI love it. Looks really good. The rifle slinging to the back is a great touch. What about adding a pistol holster as well? That was the only thing that felt a bit weird when it was equipped.

2022-11-22 06:04:28 +0000 UTCThis looks very satisfying. I like being able to drag items to the paper doll and not just individual slots.

2022-11-22 04:27:37 +0000 UTCI love how this looks and the sound is great so far, very reminiscent to how The Long Dark does this with their own style. Can't wait to see this be improved with perhaps different equipment having different equipment sounds. For example maybe a gun rattling sound when equipping one or the torso having a zipper sound, just an idea.

2022-11-22 03:17:59 +0000 UTCI love the speed of equipping, it feels like it will be satisfying. I have been thinking about the way stalker adds a stunlock to clothing. Which is a nice sense of realism, but also impedes fluidity a bit

2022-11-22 02:21:27 +0000 UTCI love the sling on the gun in the preview so much. That stood out to me
