OT: Stupid c++ (Roguelike development)

[narf poit chez BOOM]

For magic, I'm thinking something simple, that will allow the player to build spells.

The readme has been updated with a sentence on equiping.

The latest
Bugfixes, updates and name change.

Now that I'm coherent, instead of thematic runes, maybe purpose-based runes. Supposing you have the runes for Fire, Summon, Ray and Monster. You could make an explosion spell (Fire with no control rune), but it would damage your character. You could make a Ray of Fire, Summon Fire (Explosion at a square within your LOS), Summon a Monster, Summon a Monster where a Ray hits something solid, Summon a Fire-based Monster, Summon a Ray (Which would fire a Ray from a square you choose at a target you choose, but wouldn't do anything usefull), or Summon a Ray of Fire (Much more usefull.)

Simple, versitile, quick - What do you think?

Cool

Hey Narf, I made this attached pic for a modelling challenge over at the Wings forum, but I thought you might like to use it as an intro screen for your roguelike; besides, I just need a place to upload it to show it off at the Wings forum since I'm not at home to put it on my server

Thanks, soon as I figure out how to put a picture on the screen.

You could always get one of those handy bitmap-to-ASCII programs and make it doubly old-school

...I didn't even know they existed. I thought that was done by hand.
