In these weekly updates we will bring fresh content to Hive, in the form of our game coding experiences; IBT is a developing PC game - the one to have future Crypto interactions.
Building items
IBT Original will require you to be able to build some of your own cheap terrible looking armor, crude items and weapons to start with. As you move along the map you will find other unique and rare items that will allow you create or even upgrade the armor you are wearing. To do this we have to build an item inventory that will help you to hold items by buying them or picking them up along your journey.
The Backpack
As the game goes along you will be able to find bigger and better backpacks. Or maybe you want to travel light and just want a lot of small pockets or pouches to hold items in. Either way you will be able to remove items by dragging it into the "chuck it away" section of your backpack/pouches to free up slots.
On the left in the image is the backpack inventory and on the right is a pouch.
Drag drop Inventory
This is our first real shot at some difficult coding like this and is by creating this drag and drop inventory we are setting the game up for success. Never in our wildest dreams did we think we would attempt this or have it even work, but so far so good. You can transfer items from your pouch, to your backpack and it automatically stacks items for you. Don't want it to stack then simply drag them back into your pouch and split them up so you can have the correct amount of ingredients for crafting. Don't want to carry it then drag it into the chuck it away box and watch it fall to the ground.
That is, it for this update - happy xmas to all and to all a good night...or morning pending where you live :)
Cheers and enjoy our upgoats below, thanks to a
