Some Progress

The small project that I've been working on has made some good progress. I've managed to script the main interactions such as character movement, inventory and switching between heroes. Movement is done using the interface or with 'N', 'S', 'E', 'W' keys. Pressing these keys will make the character move into another location (North, South, East, and West). There is also an 'Examine' command that can be used to explore the character's current location in more detail. This includes finding out more information on where the character is, enemy activity level and if there are any items nearby etc.

I'm quite happy with the way the inventory system turned out. I've separated out the inventory for each character, ensuring each individual hero carries their own items and there's an inventory space cap to restrict how many items can be carried at one time. In future, my plan is to add multiple choices within the inventory such as use, sell, and destroy like most role-playing games. Don't like an item in your inventory? Simply destroy it.

My next goal is to work on the enemy battle system once the inventory is fully completed. That will be on my list next.
