a general thought on what books chould do

[viznew]

hopefully this different from others but if not dang i didnt read far enough back

but the book goes in study to read and to activate (requires lp income equal to cost of book in order to read)
open book window go to page you want
each page adds to lp cost some more then others based on the use and the book binding

3 types of pages i chould ponder are

advanced crafting recipes (rare crafts, unique versions of more common crafts) click the page will open craft menu (will not show in main menu only way is the book)

building plans (free form building thing) with a survey type thing you can copy some building and remake elsewhere exactly, mabye paveing plan also

then my fav the boost pages i struggled to explain this but ill use example(i open the book to cow meat page anything i craft with cow meat is boosted and takes lp from book (mabye everything chould take lp from book leaveing player unable to spam anything book related)

then each type chould have a book binding that lowwer lp from its type but takes more lp for other types and one general book that just takes everything at same rate

just some thoughts on books

was gonna touch papermaking but my god sooooooooooooo many dif ways and many many more lost unknowen ways had i included that i think it woulda been a far crazyier idea

Some good ideas there, perhaps. Not sure how to feel about books. Would be fun to have a good book system.

for some rare crafts you can find parts of a recipe in dungons, and put together the page peice by peice (only lp free way to make page)

player can also fully make a rare craft page by dissasembling 10000 shirts or making 10000 axes unlocking a different "skin" for that craft (costing lp to write the page)


new page type

beast page

after fight bear 1000 times get a bear 1 page your now able to leash bear in a fight it wont run when dieing after 1000 bear leashed you get bear 2 page you can now leash and it wont atk you but will atk others after 10,000 hours of bear leashed you get bear 3 page bear now follows you after leashed an hour and will follow for 1 hour with out leash after 1000 times of this get bear 4 page 1 hour leash equals 2 hours follow and so on with every page after

same general idea for moose and dear except can ride like horse

and mammoth except is like wagon but slightly faster and fights at lowwer capacity then when wild

to copy a page chould take 10 times lp cost of page or chould make it so can write any learned page for the lowwer cost to make harder to freely obtain as a master of the craft can write cheaper and the page jockeys gotta put in more work

or to copy you gotta build it back up like say i killed 1000s things with axe i got bloodly axe craft i cant write new page till iv killed 1000 things with an axe so pagea are more rare
