roykingtree 125 Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) -Me and colekern decided I should create my own thread for my suggestion to get more feedback.-Here is colekern's suggestion thread and his take on this suggestion: http://dayzmod.com/f...n-has-pictures/Here is my suggestion:Reddit link mirror:I think Rocket wants to have minimal UI icons that directly tell you what is wrong with your character. I beleive he wants us to connect with our character and use our actual problem solving skills to determine what may be wrong with our character (ie..sick, broken leg, etc..). The following [crude] images are an example of what I think could possibly be done with the Inventory System to ensure what I previously said.How to diagnose your character:Healthy.....Sick...How to indicate/represent "Blood Loss":Minor blood loss:Medium blood loss:Major blood loss:*Note, The blood elements are dynamic and gradual, meaning there aren't just 3 stages (min,med,maj), the amount of blood that "drips" on to your UI is dependent upon how much blood you have lost.* Edited March 30, 2013 by roykingtree 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roykingtree 125 Posted March 30, 2013 Nice, I like it. I'm not sure which one I like better though, mine, or yours.I think yours is great for a direct approach, and mine is good for an indirect approach to UI notification. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roykingtree 125 Posted May 9, 2013 Or actually bleeding and no UI.Oh wait the characters already bleed.There will be a UI whether you like it or not, that is not the question. The question is how can we represent certain things without graduated meters, numbers, 3-stage icons, etc.... The suggestion I have proposed is a way to represent blood loss without saying (5137/12000 BLOOD). Also, wouldn't it be cool to open your UI and see blood slowly drip onto your UI obstructing icons etc..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
