TARDIS Maintenance and Leveling System
I suggest a new feature where players can gain experience and level up from piloting the TARDIS. And I don't just mean selecting a location and pulling a lever. While in vortex flight, players in advanced mode could be able to select different parts of the TARDIS in order to reach your destination. Think Fallout Who and Fallout Who Vegas where pilots would have to activate a random sequence in order to level up their piloting skills. These piloting skills could unlock sub-features, giving the TARDIS more of a purpose as oppose to just transportation. If anything, it will add to one's flying experience.
Sub-features could be minor things that would either improve one's TARDIS or add a nice little bonus. It wouldn't make normally accessible features locked down under required levels but unlock ones that you didn't even know were there. For example, my previous issue #284 includes artificial shielding (all explained there!) which would benefit the player and is a feature earned through responsible piloting/maintenance.
Maintenance would also be another feature that can be added. There could be a specific place in the console room which could be accessed by the player. There, you could be able to access the TARDIS' systems and be able to re-route/re-wire things that become out of place over time. This will also add to your piloting skills and will improve your flying experience as not maintaining your TARDIS could lead to poor flying, damages and even complete system shutdowns (if you're flying when this happens, you could get a crash landing).
This, of course, can be toggleable because I can imagine not all players would approve if these features became mandatory in order to fly the TARDIS. With these features added, it adds more realism to the TARDIS and gives players more things to do with her as well. It would definitely be a good addition for players in it for the experience and even roleplayers.
+maybe you stay in vortex flight for a certain amount of time depending on how far you are travelling? would be toggle-able of course and maybe you can unlock a switch that disables this
I like what you have said but dr.mat should copy the flying from fallout who vegas
@GangsterGranny didn't we have this in the legacy (and therefore will have in this version)? or do you mean the leveling system from flying?
@Kennykun Sorry I mean fallout new vages but a mod called fallout who vegas I would like to have that because it's got a pilot level xp and pilot the tardis (Sorry for bad English I speak Finnish )
@GangsterGranny, that's what I'm talking about. That's literally in the first paragraph of the issue.
