[Suggestion][UI]Research Book ideas

June 26, 2010 2:22:57 AM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums
  • When you read the description of a spell you can see "has a 25% + INT%/3 to blah blah blah". What would be more usefull is a "has 35% to hit", and if you mouseover the 34% you can see the formula.
  • Sorting spells should be available : for instance I would like to see only the spells with a fire component, with no component at all, with less than 10 mana to cast, "terrain changing" spells, and so on.
  • Giving life to the book : in MoM the spells wasn't readable, and when you researched it it animated itself. I wouldn't like to not be able to read what I will purchase, but the animation when you have researched it is a good idea. Maybe you could open the spell book and see the medallion engraving in the paper thanks to some magical glow ?
  • the "next page" button is really hard to see and too small. What would be interesting is : when you mouseover the corner of a page you see it like if you were flipping the page and animate it. That would add to the sensation of searching in a book, and why not creating some margin where we could let some note for ourselves ? (like "Research tyhis when I'll have the raise ground" or "Research it after finishing the XYZ quest")

I have always found the little dog ear at the upper corner edge of a page when you can flip it to be a good, basic, universal graphic.
