Setup Player Stats

Implement Player Stats

Reference this document. Read the requirements for the Class Methods Player Stat Manager, and the Progression Beats.

Player Stat Manager

Health

• Create a health IntReference ScriptableObject. Anything that needs to reference the current player health can reference this directly.
• A healthManager observer that watches for changes in the current health and calls events like PlayerDeath.
• The player will have 8 health points. We may have callback events at each value change.
• The player medkit system mentioned in the document can be a separate functionality where medkits reference the player health IntReference and adjust it as needed. This system could be made now or later.
• Enemy damage can be handled similarly with a direct reference to the player health. But wait to build this until we know more from design.

Speed

• Note, in the doc we are not implementing ranged movement speeds at this time. Just walk and run for now.
• CurrentSpeed could be abstracted as a ScriptableObject
• Changing speeds will be handled through a Player Controller or Speed Controller as an enum and switch statement.
  • The values will be set as const float values.

example:

enum SpeedStates{
  SpeedA,
  SpeedB,
  SpeedC
}

const float SpeedAValue = 10;
const float SpeedBValue = 5;
const float SpeedCValue = 2;

SpeedStates currentSpeed;

fooMethod(){
  switch(currentSpeed){
    case A, B, C = SpeedA, B, C
  }
}

• The values can be found in the referenced document.

Acceptance Criteria

Stick with implementing player health and speed for now, make the associated ScriptableObject int and float references, write the manager scripts with some placeholders event handlers like a state machine for the health to call feedback events at different levels. It'd also be nice if the speeds are functional with the input keys for walk and run with shift key.
