Class Stats

Class Name: stats

Members

Functions:

  currently all the functions are of the type :
       get<insertstatnamehere>
       set<insertstatnamehere>
  eg: getLevel();
      setLevel();

Variables:

  int level // character level
  int experience // how close to the next level the character is
  int maxHP // maximum health
  int currHP // current health
  int maxMP // maximum mana
  int currMP // current mana
  int strength // will affect melee damage
  int agility // will affect bow damage, and possibly hit rate and dodge chance
  int speed // will (eventually) affect how many attacks a character can potentially get in battle
  int stamina // directly affects health
  int intelligence // will affect mana, and spell damage
  list status // will be a linked list containing the status effects currently affecting the character

Notes: I am thinking of not making death a status effect... simply disallow any action to be taken by a character with a currHP <= 0 - this could shorten calculations on the linked list somewhat since I am expecting dying in battle to happen a LOT. Of course... if a character has 0 health we can disallow casting of a regular healing spell to change that... anyway we'll see how much overhead this would save (if death isnt common then it'd probably be simpler to make it a status since we'd not be saving much in the way of processing)

PS: don't ask me how those cool boxes appeared for my code... I don't know :S Natoli 21:08, 6 July 2006 (PDT)
