Decided to use the menu system for Archon spells & power. No better idea yet.
Individual spells will be assignable to open impulse slots for quick access.
Planning out the menus right now. Going to try and use darkplaces ability to configure game menus.
Will have the usual mouse wheel / fire control system operations.
Trying to decide if Archons will be in 1.0.5a or if they have to wait. Might be able to include one Archon form that can be assumed multiple times.
Archons will need a default attack. For melee I'm thinking some kind of energy scythe that goes slightly past axe range.
Maybe 1.5 * axe damage. Range attack might be a pulse energy bolt (i.e. reflecting laser like the hipnotic cannon) with damage slightly past nails.
All Archon operation will use up Archon power. Already thinking if an Archon falls below a certain threshold, they de-Archon back to their former morph state.
And the massive monster upgrade that has been on going is needing a code re-working. Not sure what release that will be in.
Likely I'll write it up with the 2 headed and 3 headed dog (Fluffy!) and backport to the other monsters in a later release.
Yes, some of you will notice a rise of mutants amongst monster kind. I dont think morphs will access those for some time.
Perhaps that will be a future unlockable content. This is all part of the single player reboot I'm building up to.
(Along the lines of what Abrams did for the Trek universe...) Going to see if I can talk Cthulhu into making an appearance or two
to make it a proper Lovecraftian horror epic.
