Dead Font Legacy Superheavy Weapons

Post by squib »

After a font is drained to 0 max depth and evaporates, the superheavy items which indicate the font (e.g Rusty Iron Spire, Geyser, Fruit Tree) stay in place. While this may be a bug, I think it would be cool if the items became regular superheavy weapons upon the font's dissolution.

Would be pretty cool. Lemme know what you think. <3

addendum.

change the name of the items (Rusty Iron Spire, Geyser, Fruit Tree) to a slightly different item name (like Twisted Iron Spire, Ultra-Heated Rock, Up-rooted Fruit Tree) to indicate that are from a dead font. Also it doesn't quite make sense to throw a geyser at someone.

Bonus points: Make the superheavy weapons deal damage aligned to the former font's elemental alignment (idea credit to thenixon)

This was surprisingly easy to code.

It’ll be in the next patch. Also, font creators will be notified when their font dies.
