I’ve been doing some work on crafting recently, and I thought I’d send you a random screenshot.
This the visualisation from a tool I wrote to show how the various things in the game are crafted and the dependencies between them. It’s zoomed right out, so you can’t see the details (I’m a killjoy I know). I believe this represents a good chunk of the core recipes, but there are still lots to add like wearables, props, and more.
I’m hoping the crafting has a random element to it as well. Crafting 10 swords is boring as heck. Crafting 10 swords in the hopes of getting one with great stats is at least interesting. I think Ultima Online had a sense of that.
