Bugs / [1.0.3.20] Feat: Evasive Maneuvers

« on: January 04, 2018, 11:34:00 pm »

In the feat description it says "...converting movement points into evasion ... for 2 turns", but in reality it works only for one turn. It dissappears immediatly in the beginning of the second turn (after player queue).
Cooldown of this ability is 3 turns.

I suppose it should be 2 turns with evasion 1 turn without (remaining cooldown), then you can use ability again?

Suggestions / Random encounters, mini-games

Random encounters
You travel a lot in underrail, so i thought some life should be added.
These should have a ( for example ) 4% chance to spawn after entering location
(but only in already visited earlier locations). Also encounters should scale depending to
location type ( caves, metro, facilities, subways, underrail ) and game
events ( faceless invasion, etc ).

• animals pack, currently in game
• random traders, you can trade ( even more rare, traders with rare items );
• random scavengers, travelers, you can talk to about nearest city news, events, etc;
• patrols, protectorate, other factions and gangs patrols;
• lurkers, marauders;
• random skirmish, hassle
  SGS patrol fighting Lurkers, Protectorate patrol fighting Lunatics, Ironheads
  vs random trader with guards ofcourse ^) etc;
  
• unique encounters;

Mini-games
Gambling. Cards, dice, etc. Win easy money, or loose all you have.

Misc
Minor changes which i think will improve gameplay.

• hotkey to hide walls, for better map vision
• containers:
  
  • unchecked container names should be in yellow color,
    checked - grey, currently they are always grey
  • remains and `stuff` on the ground should disappear
    after some time, because junk lies forever, like organs from
    rathhounds etc
• items should have background color in inventory,
  depending on rarity
• add flashlights, which you can use in weapon slot to
  light area your character is facing. (will use energy, +detection )
  + also flashlight enhancement for ranged weapons,
  you'll need to activate weapon through hotbar to enable
  and disable flashlight ( +precision, because better vision )
  flashlight properties ( range, power, capacity, etc )
  

Companions
The game sometimes tough, especially when playing rogue. Would be nice to
have some mercenaries or unique companions.
Minimum controls:
auto-pilot in peace time ( commands `wait here`, `follow me`, [`move here` points cursor] ),
full control in fight ( full turn control )
inventory exchange.
Maximum controls:
Full control in peace mode ( using skills, items, walking, attacking, using objects ).

You can hire ( for money ) a hacker mercenary if you need to hack smth, etc.
Mercenaries should hang in cantinas and bars, they should have random level
and class ( thief, hacker, gunner, gunslinger, scientist, etc ) scaling to current or nearest City.
