Dev Log #18: Lower Underrail and Mad Hattering

(1/2) > >>

Styg:
I'm currently in the process of building the Lower Underrail.



For those who don't know the Lower Underrail was the industrial/military zone of the big underground metro system before things went to hell, as opposed to the Upper Underrail which was the residential zone.

I have it mapped out on paper and am now going through each zone and constructing it in the editor. It's a lot of work without much to report so bear with me as I grind through it. At first, there won't be any quests or special points of interest (just containers, monsters, bandits, traps, and that stuff), until later I start adding the stations, dungeons and occasional random encounter. The metro train is also on the way. It will be connecting the aforementioned stations.

In other news, I've added psionic headbands to the game along with blueprint and components required to make them (creating them will require electronics and a bit of biology). These headbands can enhance one of the three psionic schools, but there are also universal ones that enhance all three (though those are generally weaker). Depending on what components are used, they can increase skill levels, critical chances, critical modifiers, and psi costs. I will add more components in the future that will have other effects or have greater effects (per quality) but with certain drawbacks.

UnLimiTeD:
Why would anyone create a headband with increased cost?
Is that meant to mean lower cost, or is it a negative sideeffect of a stronger other modifier?

Yeah, I know, I'm pestering you with unnecessary questions.  8)

16bitAindo:
I would imagine it means that the Psi required to use a particular skill will be reduced.

joejoefine:
He probably meant decrease psi costs, but yeah I'm guessing even if it does increase it it will be because it also increases the damage or critical chance of some skill.

Styg:
Yeah, I meant to say it can decrease psi cost. But some future component might increase it as a negative side effect.
