[FREE] UBER Mana Addon

[uberwiggett]

What this addon will include:

A "Mana" controller, allowing for a third variable (health/stamina/mana) to be managed, with functionality to replenish over time or be replenished by potions.

Projectile Spell casting - Modification of the shooter weapon system to allow for weapons to draw from Mana instead of ammo items.

Works with:

Invector Shooter template only.


Future Versions:
I'm intending to expand it to allow for generic actions to check for items equipped and sufficient mana in order to cast other spells like AoE and Buff spells, but not making any promises just yet. However the current mana controller can be accessed outside the system so you can add-subtract mana for whatever!


No public release build yet as it requires modifications of the core code, I am looking to try and reduce or remove that necessity, however until I am sure it's complete I won't be sending out any tests. I am also contemplating selling this addon for $5.

edit: I am renaming this to the Mana addon, it's the free addon that gives you a mana controller, as I think with the amount of edits to get spells to work I will only be able to package it as a paid asset pack part of my RPG system.

ok fixed UI slider and now added ability to equip a non-projectile spell, trigger an animation and any other effect you want, demonstrated here by a healing spell.

ok I am still figuring out how to best distribute the main addon, but here you can get the c# script for the mana controller, it's a reworked health controller, with the basic features you can need for a mana system. It has the ability to drain mana when casting, regenerate mana (by rate, 0 is off), and to increase/decrease the max mana. This is just the script, not the UI readout or any help setting it up, for people who can understand code enough to work it themselves Will be waiting for the new inventory update before I decide how to best package the full spells addon
