[feature request] Vegetable compatibility index #7

Open s0uk4 opened 2 months ago

s0uk4 commented 2 months ago

Problem

Currently the results shown in Vegetal offer characterization of the user's unique VegetableType. Unfortunately, Vegetal does not display compatibility between VegetableTypes.

Why is it important?

This means that once a user has seen their results, they cannot pretend that Vegetal is secretly a horoscoping tool used to judge the friend or potential courtier's compatibility with their VegetableType, spur on more conversation about how cute it is to be any given Type in the game, which VegetableType is the least compatible, etc.

Proposed Solution

Vegetal integrate a matrix of compatibilities as a result of the Alignment index, where different orientations compliment others. It could also be implemented on the basis of PallateType where there are innate compatibilities between vegetables (s/a garlic and cabbage, broccoli and potato).

This would allow an abundance of interpersonal communication with statements such as 'I could never hang out with a Jalapeño, we aren't compatible' or 'No, I'm a carrot, I just don't really mix with potatoes unfortunately'.


Alternative approaches

Of course, you could also not do this because your game is perfect as is and turning things into dating apps is cringe.

This is a template for how feature requests should be written, well done.

Hii, I made a compatibility chart for a team-building exercise at work. (We took the quiz and everyone loved it so much we thought it would be a fun idea to make one). I attached it if anyone wants to use it, but of course, it's just something we made ourselves, true compatibility is up for debate.
