Combat verbosity #68

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Suggestion from Issue 26 by surrano: 

Similar to end-combat short notify (which could be improved as well...) there 
could be a summary-type turn handling:
a) one summary line per opponent:
Spectre hit you 2 times for a total of 3 HP
Spectre hit you once for 1 HP
Spectre missed you completely.

b) one summary line per round: [...] means optional
2 [of 3] opponents hit you 3 [of 9] times for a total of 4 HP. [(1 critical 
hit)]

The display option (e.g. called "combat detail level") could be:
- verbose (as it is now)
- short (one line per opponent)
- terse (one line per round)

I don't know if I should reuse this issue or not, but, as it's related, here 
goes.

When you perform your last attack for the round, there is no delay between it 
and the monster's first attack. This made me confused the in the beginning so I 
missed the notification of my attack and only seeing the monster's attack.

True. I developed the habit not to look at text, only red numbers steaming up 
from our (character's and monsters') heads. :)

and I want to see stuff like 
"the rabid fox took a nasty bite out of your leg! (-4 HP)"
"you cleave the Spectre with a devastating blow!! Critical Hit! (-9 HP)"

I agree with that to some extent but they get old fast. You go through the same 
10 over and over. Maybe monster specific attacks? Like the wasps sting you, the 
bears claw you, etc.

A log and summary would be great.
Show one line, I tap it, it grows to a full textview.
I tap it shrinks, I drag it scrolls.
