List number of demons with weakness/resists/immunity

[Sandman25]

It would be very useful to see how many demons have weakness/resists/immunities to different elements sorted in descending order.
Something like this:

Code: Select all

Immunity: Ice (1)
Resists: Ice (3) Elec (1), Body (1), Dark (1)
Weakness: Fire (4), Dark (2), Elec (2), Light (1)

Not in the morgue file but in the game. I would use it to decide which demon to delete.

Also probably the same info about attacks might be good.

Code: Select all

Attacks: Ice (2), Fire (1), Elec (1)

If demon has 2 fire abilities and 1 elec ability, it counts as 1 for both fire and elec.

Hmm... interesting... some sort of "party overview" sort of thing? This definitely sounds like it could be useful! Added to the list, and thank you for the suggestion.

[Sandman25]

Yes, overview for strategic planning. Thank you

[wizzzargh]

Huh, this would be pretty useful. Maybe this will curb my bad tendency to accumulate an entire party of fire-vulnerable demons...

[Ferret]

This will be both in the morgue/report files and in-game (probably accessible with Shift+V). The in-game display isn't ready yet, but here's the morgue file version, which is basically how the in-game report will look too:

Code: Select all

n : Number of party members counted.
* : Denotes the main character is included.


[Sandman25]

Good idea to include normal damage and denote main character, thanks!

[Ferret]

Yeah, I figured the main character was worth special mention because you're stuck with you in the party no matter what.

Here's a screenshot of the in game version. As I suspected, Shift+V ended up being the keypress I wanted, so unless something weird happens, that will be what it is in the build.



For the most part, numbers are either grey (you have 0) or white (1+). Weak is treated a bit differently: 0 is in this case green since it's good. A number of 1+ will be red if your situation is such where it is literally impossible to field a full party that does not include someone weak to that element.

This means your summoner's personal weakness(es) will always be in red, of course. A bit melodramatic, perhaps, but only a bit: handling your summoner's weaknesses is one of the more important skills for long-term survival.
