Hunting Hiring #6

Open SourcererCodex opened 3 years ago

SourcererCodex commented 3 years ago

Hire Soldiers / NPCs to assist in Hunting

[ ] Haisli NPC
[ ] Archer NPC Scout?
[ ] Caster NPC?
[ ] Hunt Leader NPC?

WrenWrecker commented 3 years ago

A general thought involving hirelings.

Would the hirlings have their own character sheets complete with skills?

If so, npcs with better survival or sneak could be potential Hunt Leader to help out players with potentially worse skill sets for the !hunt system.

@WrenWrecker In a current version the NPCs will have stat blocks. I am unsure at the moment about having the NPC being the hunt leader, but that would be ideal

Initial Question Updated to look into it

Gameplay Loop: For Hunting Hire Help

Store in a JSON
Add to Party Size
Check for a minimum party size if user tries to lower party size
Hire Multiple NPCs
Rehire NPC on First Hunt (don't need to !hunt hire on each individual hunt)
Rework !engage to work with hired mercenaries

Update

Successful test of initial phase. Was able to incorporate an NPC into Hunting.

Plan is as Follows:

Create 3 NPCs to bring on Hunts
NPC will add 1 to the party size, and prevent lowering the party size below the amount of hired NPCs
engage will find the hired NPCs and roll initiative for them if they exist
can't unhire while hunts remain and inventory present
way to modify available NPCs per server with default being the 3 created
price of hiring is a split of the reward so no additional coin required
Need command to add NPCs
Restrict NPCs from Entering New Areas (Future Proof?)
