Short term list of things I hope to find time to work on, maybe in some sort of order.
Account based login for characters - adding support to GTK client and server.
New character creation method - client based and not in game (map) based. So player can see what the different options do and make better choices.
Rebalancing efforts:
Melee combat - remove wc/ac, increase resistance of monsters, likely weapon rebalance.
Stat changes - increase range (1-50), but decrease what you get - a 50 in new system may be equivalent to a 30 now.
Spell changes - balance, redo spells, maybe look at runic type system.
Add inventory wizard to client
For shops, this provides a convenient place to buy/sell items - if selling items, will clearly show what you get so you don’t have to examine every item.
Can also be used to set up weapon/armor sets
Not meant to be kept up all the time - during normal play, window typically would not be up.
Code cleanup
Smarter image update/synchronization - should be able to know more easily what changed from last run and download those updated images faster.
