A Journey through Consciousness - Facing Alpha Nemesis - Weekly Log #16 (no video) - 26.07 - 01.08.2023 (Weekly Updated)

26.07.2023

<> Wrote code for the map-targeting event, and extended it so that enemies' locations are also shown.

<> Streamed for 4 hours and worked around the algorithm that would show the minor enemies' ID on the map ground-targeting event designed for player to cast AoE abilities.

<> The algorthm worked partly due to numerous errors in the writing of some great events.

27 - 28.07.2023

<> Corrected multiple instances of wrong eventID values given to properties.

<> Some PBS main event had a few minor foes' ID written wrong, some of the characters would spawn wrong in 1 of the 14 preset groups, and group 2 enemy 6 wasn't marked as alive, resulting in them not being displayable. All of these and several other such errors were corrected.

<> Tested the event and the IDs spawn correctly.

<> Discovered a minor writing of a stat property for Peasant Male, corrected for each. Shortened the name of some of Peasant Males' and Peasant Females' property names (should do the same for the other characters as well).

<> Slightly changed base Resistance stats for the major foes (not minor ones, this was done a while ago). Adjusted them to fit major foes' profession, also added the "ATK" column to the Excel Spreadsheet.

<> Applied the stat changes to Se-j Yyayi-kaara Rözantróffa, not yet introduced in the game.

<> Started creating Se-j Yyayi-kaara Rözantróffa's skillset property values.

<> Also started adding Se-j Yyayi-kaara Rözantróffa's supportish abilities' features to minor foes' property database, since they may end up playing with her in the team. Not yet decided if these minor foes will encounter major foes, yet I know if they will, Se-j Yyayi-kaara Rözantróffa will be one of those, since I love the derp faces this hottie elf milf.

29.03.2023

<> Continued with Rözantróffa's skillset property creation.

<> Changed Rözantróffa's Death [Elemental Field] for allies (defeated timer reset) from "constantly" to "once during the End Phase".

<> Rözantróffa's Psychic [Elemental Field] for allies no longer grants Stealth (constantly) and +5% Psychic Resistance (constantly). Now Negative Effects have -12% application ssc on allies.

30 - 31.07.2023

<> Continued with Rözantróffa's skillset property creation.

<> Reduced duration of all Elixir of Quickening sizes to 1 round (from 2: Medium & Large), CD increased to 4 - there is an Elixir that reduces CDs for caster when drunk. Also slightly lowered the +% Evasion received (from 20% to 18% for Medium and 27% to 25% for Large).

<> Changed Elixir of Quickening's description to state that the Elixir grants 1 Movement Point during the Engage Phase, instead of 1 Movement Speed during the Engage Phase. It's the same thing, but speed needs to be improved BEFORE the Engage Phase so that benefit exists.

<> Changed Elixir of Storing: triggers its gains for caster at the end of duration instead of each time someone who drank it would use an ability (for code-writing easiness).

<> Elixir of Storing can have multiple size effects active of the same time, still 1 can be cast / round. Also reminded that max HP and max Mana cannot go beyond 999!

<> Updated Basic Potion's (Attack) description to state it is also an Attack, besides a Potion.

<> Added a 2 rounds CD for each Potion's size that is Crafted (independent CD, each size of a Potion has it, as well as a Throw CD).

01.08.2023

<> Continued with Rözantróffa's skillset property creation.

<> Increased "Life-Balance Concoction"'s Throw CD from 5 to 8 (since there are 4 sizes and it prevents being Defeated for this round: 4 sizes with 5 CD each meant it was pretty spammable. Also caster has access to Celerity, and won't be the only ally so).

<> Renamed Potion of Mana Recovery to Potion of Mana-Flow so as to better suit the name.

<> Specified that Potion of Bitter-Renewal's Crippled application duration is 1 round.

<> Created Immunities to each Element which were added to Peasant Male 1 at that moment. These were added in the player's property code for future use.

<> Minor keyword color corrections in abilities' description.

<> Changed Bottle Inferno's (Potion) effect to no longer grant +8 trigger damage per any of the 3 [Elemental Field]s affected. Effect didn't make sense since a tile can only be affected by maximum 2 [Elemental Field]s at a certain time. Effect was changed to +8 trigger damage if affected by ANY of the 3 (functionality wise effect stays the same).

<> Completed the addition of Rözantróffa's skillset properties. :3
