companions

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I've been trying to figure out the best stats for companions. So far I have this:

export interface RaceData {
    race: RaceOptions;
    description: string;
    health: number;
    magicka: number;
    defense: number;
    attack: number;
}

Describe the ideal solution probably refactor raceData I don't know.

Yeah this is gonna have to get refactored into something like this:

export interface RaceData {
    race: RaceOptions;
    description: string;
    health: number;
    mana: number;
    stats: {
        strength: number;
        dexterity: number;
        endurance: number;
        intelligence: number;
        luck: number; // ?? maybe
    };
}

RaceData isn't so clear on what it does. CompanionData or PetData should be better.

Maybe the companion stats should be separated into its own class to separate responsibilities.

[JuanPablo2655]

Oh yeah, CompanionData sounds a lot better.

add a companion system

okay I've been messing around with the idea and this is what I've come up with so far:

export interface Companion {
    _id: Snowflake;
    name: string;
    exp: Experience;
    data: EntityData;
}

export interface Npc {
    name: string;
    data: EntityData;
    killable: boolean;
}

export interface EntityData {
    dna: DnaOptions;
    gender: string;
    class: ClassOptions;
    health: number;
    mana: number;
    stats: Stats;
    mutation: 'Vampire' | 'Werewolf' | 'Undead' | null;
}

export interface Experience {
    level: number;
    xp: number;
}

export interface Stats {
    strength: number;
    dexterity: number;
    endurance: number;
    intelligence: number;
}

Data=> EntityData? I would avoid using race and opting for dna.

[JuanPablo2655]

Yeah, that works also moved killable to Npc.
