RPG Stats

RPG Stats is a new systems package added in the 1.5.0 architecture wave.

It provides reusable stat/attribute foundations that can be consumed by inventory, equipment, combat, and UI layers.

What This System Solves

• a consistent “source of truth” for stat definitions and rules
• a shared language for modifiers/effects across gameplay systems
• a stable base for UI (display names, formatting, colors, comparisons)

Includes (High-Level)

• attribute definitions and catalogs
• attribute sets/modifiers/effects
• display configuration and color helpers
• element definitions and relationship tables
• resolver utilities and shared constants

Suggested Mental Model

• Attribute: a single stat definition (HP, Armor, FireResist, CritChance, etc.)
• Attribute set: a collection of attributes on a character/item/context
• Modifier / effect: a rule that changes stats (flat/additive/multiplicative, conditional, duration-based, etc.)
• Elements: typed tags (Fire, Ice, Poison…) plus relationship tables (strength/weakness)

Why It Matters

• centralizes stat logic in one package
• improves consistency across gameplay and UI systems
• enables cleaner integration with Inventory feature modules

Typical Integration Patterns

• Inventory (equipment): item features contribute modifiers; equipment slots apply/remove them.
• UI: preview “equipped vs. candidate” deltas and display element/stat colors consistently.
• Combat: consume attribute sets to compute damage/mitigation (using element relationships when relevant).
