[RFE] character equipment enhancement
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the new feature of the character actually wielding what he is wielding. At the same time, I noticed it could be improved on.
For the sake of running through the game as quickly as possible (and getting as far as I can as well), I set the game on stuff like easy monster difficulty, high treasure rates. Corruption and Hunger are still on though. Yeah. Hate me for being chumpy. This was for business like finding issues. So far, the game has run beautifully except for one point concerning kobold shamans slowing the game slightly when they cast spells. but I'm not going to discuss that.
I beat the Arena, and get the golden gladius, and equip it. I later find a crystal shield, and equip IT. THAT'S when I notice something. My guy has a medium crystal shield equipped, but on the character, it only looks like a regular medium shield. And the Golden Gladius? Just a sword. See what I'm getting at? My RFE is that on the character, when he has a crystal shield equipped, he is holding a crystal shield in his tile. Don't get me wrong, I get it. This will probably mean SUPER COMPLICATED CODING or something. IDK. This is purely a visual bit and, while unnecessary gameplay wise, would really help with the aesthetic feel of the game. At least, it would in my opinion.
Also, while we're on the subject of character equipment graphics, are you guys working on doing the same thing for armor? I'm wearing scale mail but it looks like I'm wearing a robe...
EDIT: Just noticed you guys might be doing SOMETHING on the armor front. I'm wearing a cloak I have equipped, for example.
