Fields: Base Health & Per Hero #1285

Open antontimmermans opened 4 years ago

antontimmermans commented 4 years ago

The interface for spawning a monster allows a scenario writer to set Health and Health per Hero. image What it does not show, is that it is actually base health + (health entered in the field: "Health"). This makes it for a scenario to write difficult to balance the difficulty of monsters (only by trying). The field "Per Hero" works probably in the same manner. It would be VERY helpful it the interface would display the base health, and the field "Health" would be called "Base health modifier".

And the same for the Per hero field.

This is the same bevhaviour as in the Road to Legend app.

The app does not know the base health of a monster therefore it can not calculate it.

That is strange because I could find those scores in the code of the app. I added those scores in a table in scrubbles's Tutorial (in Appendix). I also created a simple calculation sheet as a tool for scenario writers: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16Ppm4bRNfOPuzPVwoX_tVyF_adlZizCbXIyNb-uSjiM/edit?usp=sharing

The above tables are for MOM, I assume that the monster score mechanism for Decent is the same.
