Sparring in Adventurer Mode
« on: February 04, 2021, 06:31:06 pm »

Sparring in Adventurer mode would either occur with your companions(soldier companions with weapons) or with soldiers.

For the former, you can ask your companion to spar, after which they will (usually) draw their weapon and start the spar. Just like fortress mode, all of your attacks(and their attacks) will be “lightly tapping the target”. Sparring stops when you leave a certain range(5-10 tiles) or ask the companion to stop sparring. Such sparring is a great way to train your skills. Will not occur if your companion is impatient enough.

For the latter, soldiers of any kind(barring those who don’t really care about their life anymore, they act the same as soldiers currently) will ask you to spar with them to assess your abilities to see if you are good enough for their companionship. Such a value would likely be determined by the amount of hits you score on the soldier divided by the amount of hits the soldier does on you. If you impressed them, they will join you; if not, they decline your offer and ask you to train more before asking them again.
