We could definitely use a list of proposed / accepted ideas somewhere on the main page. On the same list, the later accepted standards should be included as well.

Further, we really should have a documentation regarding... everything in the mod. Not necessarily reactions or items, they can be given definitions now, but everything else, yes.

I should've snagged a second post spot for future use. Would've helped in the long run. No matter though, We'll make due.

By documentation, do you mean a play guide, or more of a general thing for modders like the list of classes? Or something else entirely. Regardless, I intend to add a folder for the first two things, at least.

I originally meant a Player's Guide, but now that I think about it, we might need something for the modders too, I guess.

One last question, would it be okay if, instead of me actively modding. That I could be more of an idea guy?

Making shit up and hoping it fits? (I wouldn't just make up random shit though)

That's certainly what I'll be doing.

@Bearskie
I'll save those raws in case we do end up changing palettes, but for now, they'll remain the same.
I'll put up the palette change as a poll here in a moment

Edit: On a side note, are we going to want to do a tileset and graphics pack for this at some point?

Graphics pack, definitely!

Well, I mean, I can't do graphics, but I really want this project to have one.

Tileset, now THAT I really can't do. At least with graphics, I know how to apply them in the raws. Not so much with tilesets.

I have the background to make one. Eventually... We could have certain effects like making the extra dimensional creatures(or plants) tiles have a different feel too them, but that would all have to be agreed on beforehand, and raws changed accordingly

I'm rather wary of tilesets, though I'm no doubt in the minority. That said, I wouldn't mind something in the style of the first five Ultimas, a sort of tapestry.

It would be quite interesting to make an actual tapestry-themed pack, with weave-patterns and the like. Too bad I'm not a draw-personage.
