It would be nice if X10 had custom CV HUD Systems that the user could customize. This could be a money system, scoring system, requirement system.

For example, the player might have to collect a certain amount of money before they can advance to the next level.

-OR-

The player must collect a certain amount of money before retrieving a certain visible entity in the game.

Maybe there is a store at the beginning of the level, and they player must walk over an entity and "buy" the entity by deducting a certain amount from the specific value.

Just a thought.

I believe global variables would be the most valued update ever.

I agree with the requirement system. Most published games require you to acclomplish something every level other than getting from Point A to Point B.

Yea. Even though in V1 you must complete objective 1+, it has no requirement system as far as health and CV HUD values.

Agreed. Hopefully someone from TGC will read this thread.

returning to a previous level would be nice. It would give a whole new open endedness to FPSC, or perhaps even haveing 2 exits that go to seperate levels.

If you're talking about the money system, he wants a real variable for money, not using our health.

If you're talking about empty's mod, that doesn't have any of the features that the recent FPSC updates do, it's just V1 with variables.

Empty's mod was useful back when it was released but FPSC has evolved far beyond that.We can't do any mods at present time until the source code is released.

Hopefully when most bugs are fixed, TGC will release a new source code and add in some new features.

I'm sure all of this is possible through coding....however, I doubt that these things will be in the default engine. Now it may be included if it was called RPG Creator....

I'm sure someone who is REALLY good with DarkBASIC could play around with the source code in DB, but the releases source code is really outdated.

Yeah, and maybe just maybe...
each entity could have a SCORE variable that can be adjusted via an FPI script. Oh yeah it will have that!
So, Money is very doable in X10, as are Gun Shops for obtaining or upgrading weapons.
Even purchasing the Building itself, receiving both Title (hud) and Keys (entry).
Yeah, having a score on each entity will bring more than money into the games.

Sounds like a HUD Pack request.
I'm sure there will be some RPG content made available after the release of FPSC X10.
Quite a few people have been wishing for RPG elements.
