Suggestions for future version

This will cover everything I get as feature requests.
Please don't suggest anything that will completely revamp a large part of the hack, as the hack WILL be completely revamped already. For more information, click the 3rd ETA in my signature. It will be updated as I have information.

"Too Expansive" or in other ways hard to accomplish
These features may or may not make their appearance, but only in the 3rd ETA of my signature.

Character Creator. Reason: I don't know GD coding.
Farming. Reason: Having trouble grasping the coding and visual aspects of this, plus got tons of higher priority things to do.


Denied feature suggestions
Lets face it, these features either suck or are completely unacceptable because of performance issues.

Rename Purchased Items. Reason: SQL query intensive, plus it would make it hard to distinguish between items.
Active flash visuals on the battle screen. Reason: I know bugger all flash, plus Im sure it would be somewhat intensive, plus it requires plugin installation by end-user.
Secondary weapon to replace fist. Reason: Fight honorably, and don't be a pussy that is afraid of breaking a nail.
Firearms to equal Magic for non MP users. Reason: I choose to call it something else, so there will be no shotguns :p
Persons being challenged cannot deny the challenge. Reason: I dislike forcing things upon users, challenges being the worst.



Explanations

A "Skills" system will replace some of the functions currently handled by the RPG. Spells is an example of this. An administrator will be able to configure various Skills based on different categories. More details will be revealed at a later point.
An "Effects" system is basically a way of enhancing the Skills. Whereas Skills may deal raw damage (such as a Limit Break, or Fire 3), additional "Effects" may also apply. Cast Regen to allow your HP to regenerate slowly. Use a Weapon Skill called for instance "Boost" which enhances your next attack by 15%. The possibilies are endless.
The Skills system will have to be revamped for the RPG-NG, because of the fundamental changes to the core stats being introduced in this version.

This post is a blatant bump to bring attention to the fact that the list has been revised and some explanations added.
