Add optional Overworld Inventory support
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It's not so much a problem as it is an enhancement vs using L/R for switching between powerups. I want something similar to the NSMB inventory system for storing and switching between powerups as it would fit perfectly with some rom hacks.
Describe the solution you'd like I love all the new powerups and would like a more 'authentic' way for users to store them and switch between them on the overworld screen.
Describe alternatives you've considered The current switching using L/R is sufficient and works fine, this is a mere suggestion for use in a rom hack. There is another mod that does this but doesn't work with the powerups and doesn't support SA-1 either. https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=10629
Additional context Thank you for creating this and all the hardwork you put into it. I realize this will probably be low priority as there's more pressing things but I hope you'll consider this feature request.
I'll see what I can do, I wish I could say that the author should take care of this, but he's been inactive for a while. The patch/mod itself is quite buggy and it might need a bit of help from me (or someone else).
Fun fact: Instead of having the current debug feature that changes powerups in the map by pressing L/R, I tried making a menu using the NSMBWii Inventory as a base. I ran into a couple of bugs and forgot about it since I was trying to release v3.0.0.
Nice, didn't realize you had previously worked on a NSMBwii inventory in the past. I really like that inventory style a lot myself too, better than the smb3 style. I think something like that would be a perfect fit for this hack. I envision later down the line it could also lead to other neat things like mushroom houses, map battle bosses, puzzles, etc. for item box rewards being added to the inventory.
Alright, finally took a look at the patch and things aren't looking well.
Read my comment here to get a detailed explanation on what's going on.
tl;dr: I won't do this, it requires way too much time and I want to focus on other projects.
