Status System The highly flexible status system can be set up as simple or complex as you need it for your game. Status values are used to set up your usual health, MP, experience, attack, strength and any other number-based value representing a status. Need 3 different health stats, one of them killing the combatant when depleted? ORK's got your back! You can also set up barrier values to shield other status values from negative changes. Status development can be handled in different ways, e.g. using a curve, formulas, purchased for experience/items/etc. or using custom systems via schematics. Abilities define your attacks and skills - physical, magical, melee, ranged or passive (e.g. giving bonuses). Animate and extend your abilities using schematics, e.g. to capture enemies. Other status system features: - status effects - modifiers - combatants - classes - status bonuses - status conditions Battle Systems ORK 3 includes 4 different battle systems: - Turn Based - Active Time - Real Time - Phase Each system can be tweaked to your needs, you can even set up different variants of each system. You can even use multiple systems in one game, or change the system of a running battle on the fly! Additionally, you can use battle grids in all battle systems. There are also different ways to add battles to your game - placed battles, random battle areas, spawned enemies hunting the player or just a continous real time battle in the scene. Inventory System The inventory system contains everything you need. Supports optional inventory slots, space limits, stack limits and many more features. - multiple currencies - items - equipment - equipable AI - crafting Items, equipment, etc. can be dropped into the scene (e.g. by killed enemies or from the player's inventory), items in the world can be collected, item boxes can be used to store items.
