Been a minute since the last update - we've both been real busy. But we've both also been adding screens and scripts galore since the last one.
I wanted to show off a feature that was hinted at in the demo, but we didn't have time to refine - the overworld map system. Here's the map showing the progress of the overworld so far!
This map replaces the usual space bar map that ZC automatically generates. It's fully interactable and has the following features:
- View and scroll to any screen that you've visited!
- Press A to get info about the currently selected screen.
- On certain screens, can show an icon to relay additional information - such as the presence of campfires or shops.
- Supports hints from certain NPC's which will persist on the map until the hint condition is met.
See the short video below to see the map in action and how it handles hints - this time from one of Impa's fortunes.
Additionally, you can see a teaser of a new area and item - the Power Bracelet, which has been scripted from the ground up for this quest. Also, when entering new DMaps, the area name will scroll across the top of the screen as well.
Until next time, remember - always cycle your tanks before adding fish.
