I wouldn't want it to make completely random armor for entire sets, but maybe using some sort of logic that has chances to make certain random changes that might look good together. The basic idea would be for it to be able to make armor sets similar to the guard one that Shendare posted in the first post. It would definitely take some playing around to make it output halfway decent sets most of the time.

Trev if this case, what we realy need is something like:

quest::npcarmor(slot, material);

so its not random, but rather specific by user wish.
If you do want it random you just do RND on material for specific/all slots

then we don't need to have to put it into DB

ChaosSlayer, before I add another random command, I would definitely add the direct command for changing stuff like that. The random command would just be another bonus command to go along with it. First would be one for changing tint, then maybe one for changing the material of each slot, and yet another for changing weapons out. Last and most importantly is to create a command that let's a dev save the current looks from in game. Actual # commands would be added first and then those could be copied to create quest:: commands as well whenever.

This has now been added to Revision 702 on the SVN.

This feature is awesome BTW! Playing with it shows that it has a ton of potential. The only thing I might add in soon is a simple notes field for the table so you can name each armor set. This way, you can easily have different colored sets and just name them to use them anywhere. It would make managing a large amount of sets quite a bit easier.

Agreed, a name field is a very good idea! Don't know how I missed it.

I have to second his remarks. Your additions to the project have been invaluable. If anyone's earned the rank of Developer, it's you!
