Anyways here are some suggestions:
- Make the arrangement of the Pet Hatchery look like the arrangement of items.
- Fix spelling errors (Description)
- Add around 2 default pets instead of blank to show people how to add them
- Make a way to get rid of pets once you've bought one.
- A way to view other people's pets
- A way to trade pets
- PM the user when his/her pet levels up or can level up... etc
- Make a place that admins can adjust everything a lot more easily
And if you make this mod into a dueling mod, here are some other suggestions:
- Pet battles (They wouldn't be live, it would be like messaging back and forth of two members, members can use items and forfeit and stuff like that.)
- Pet stuff (Weapons, items, armor, so on....)
- Display stats of pets in a better fashion (Heath, Skills, Level, and if you decide to, Armor, Attack... etc.)
- Take and put them in their own section away from the shop, (It would make it less cluttered, easier to use, especially if you can trade, duel, and stuff like that)
I personally do not see why the hatchery should look like the sotre items. I kinda wanted it to be different in its own way.
I plan on adding more default pets with default skills, but that wasn't needed for a package like this.]
Getting rid of pets and trading pets may be an option in the future, but not for a while.
PMing user would be really really annoying, to the point where I don't think i'll ever code it.
Admin side of things will come eventually, but again wasn't needed for the first release.
Go to a user's profile(On the default theme) and scroll down if you do not think you can view other peoples pets.
Pet battles may be coded *eventually* be not for a while. Coding battles is way *way* more complex than coding pets itself =P.
Pet items(ones that like, reduce training cost or reduce training time) are one of my next goals to code.
What do you mean by "Better fashion"? Lemme know how you want it to look can I'll see what I can do.
Keeping in the shop saves a ton of busy work for me, and really, they are integrated into the shop system. This really is a SMFSop mod, not an SMF mod.
My second breed can not be bought. (first new breed was no problem) As soon as I buy it, the screen changes to where the "you bought this pet" should be, but theres no text there. The Pet also doenst get bought...
This may have something to do with a second bug I found.
In the Pet Hatchery I can see my animals icons, but as soon as i buy them and look them up in "Pet Central" the icons disapear.
Seems its searching for the image in the wrong place. My forum is in "http://www.silverrose.nl/forum/sources/shop/pet_images but in the hatchery its trying to find the image in http://www.silverrose.nl/sources/shop/pet_images
You do not get any errors when trying to buy the bread? What is the breed name?(Both breedname and filename. Actually, giving me the whole breed file might help) That is the only thing that could be causing it.
As for the image files being wrong, ill look into that as well. I might have use "sources/" instad of "$sourcedir" by accident once or twice in the code.
Anyways, please keep in mind that my main goal was to get the pet mod to this stage--and that while I will spend time debugging it, major features will not be my main coding goal now because i'll want to work on other little projects. So don't expect any of the major stuff I talked about any time soon. Sorry =P
