Version 3.05

Share this post:

numAdjacent: Returns the number of other characters in the area specified by the passed argument. Useful for AI code.
guarded: Returns true if the character is guarded by another character in the battle grid.

The "guarded" property used by the "Guarded" status effect has been renamed to areaImmune to avoid conflicts.

actionsThisTurn: Returns the enemy's list from the actionsThisTurn object in the battle controller.

delayHold: If true, character will be unable to act while the delayed action is charging.
delayMessage: Returns a message to be displayed at the top of rounds if the user is charging a delayed action. Set to null to display no message.

Delayed actions are now stored as Action objects rather than just their name. This is to more easily facilitate the behavior described above. The setupAction property is still a string.
Equipment can now cover multiple slots! Your dreams of giving your characters two-handed swords and three-piece suits can now be realized. To do this, define the item's slot property as a Set of the slots you want the item to cover rather than a string. A new item, the "Zweihander", has been added to the item database as an example. Credit to A Friendly Irin for providing this code.
Fixed an error in Enemy's validTarget function that prevented the guard check clause from behaving correctly.
Fixed an error that prevented actorBox from being used outside of battle due to it calling for the battle controller even when it didn't exist.
Removed the extra dead space between item entries in the equipment list.
Items in the equipment list are now displayed with the Item object's toString function for consistency with other items.
Effects' addText and removeText now take the entire character object as an argument, rather than just their name. This allows for more customizable messages.
Fixed a typo in the damage reflection code that prevented it from working correctly.
Updated the included Chapel macros bundle to be compatible with SugarCube 2.35.
