The wearable equipment system was finally wrapped up and made fully functional this week! It took quite a bit of work, and a little bit of fiddling with some old testing code, but it shouldn’t break anymore.

I haven’t tested it in Networking however, so once I start messing with RPCs (to minimize network load) It’ll probably do something wacky like equipping all character’s armor to the client character and not the network ones.

However! This is a big step which paves the way for creation of additional armorsets and weaponry, as well as differing character models!

Mythical Monday resumes next week, and I’ve got some ideas rolling around. We’ll see what comes of it!

Did the base models for a lot of armor pieces this week! There’s still a few minor technical issues I need to sort out, mainly regarding the different pieces meshing together, but I feel like with a proper structure I can figure it out no problem.

As for equipment, I’m thinking there’ll be two/three tiers of armor sets, with two distinct class-set branches. That gives enough relief from creating art assets, as well as having enough variety in choices on how to kit your character over the course of a match.

What will that consist of? Mainly for-fun slapping each other with big ol’ swords on an elevated arena. I prooobably won’t have the moveset for The Wolf by that point, however. Although, if I do end up finishing that in time for the test, well...

Basic Chat system, Playernames too.

Animation synchronization over PUN.

Reworking of Animation transitions to use bools and cooldown timers.

A slightly-complex animation-cancelling system

Rolling move to help dodge attacks.

(Possible?) Backend system for determining host
