Display All Hilts
Posted: Fri Nov 06, 2015 12:01 pm
While I've been reworking the weapons pack, I've noticed just how many staves and matatuki weapons are in use at the moment. We also have a nice selection of vibroweapons. This got me thinking.
RPMod allows us to see all of our weapons when we do /rpmerc. I'd like to see the same thing for lightsabers, allowing us to display both possible single hints and the staff.
I'm aware that this would probably require a weapon slot of the inventory to be used, as I'm fairly certain a new one can't be created? If this is the case, I would propose replacing a weapon that's rarely used, such as the stun baton (we have other melee weapons in the pack and can pretty much mimic the stun baton as a saber). But if a new slot CAN be made, awesome.
I think more people would like being able to swap between staff hilts/matatuki weapons/vibro swords and their single hints than would be bothered by the lack of a stun baton. It would also be nice to have npc characters in missions kitted out with multiple weapons, like a vibroblade and a datapad at the same time, as one example.
As for how to select and equip both, perhaps a new command similar to /rpmerc, but instead something like /rpstaff <sabername>, which grants you a staff in the inventory.
