Adventures : Health and Gold

Health

You can change the health of the player using the following functions:

<%
// The character will receive 12 points of damage
character.damage(12);
// The character will be healed of 8 points of damage 
character.heal(8);
%>

The character has a maximum health of 20.

Its current health is accessible through character.health, for example:

The innkeeper welcomed you into his place.

<% if (character.health < 10) { %>

"It looks like you're hurt, I'll get you a bedroom. No need to pay, it looks like you've got enough trouble today already."

<% } %>

If the health of the character ever falls to 0, the game will trigger a death screen, ending the adventure of the player

Gold

The amount of gold carried by the player can be changed using the following functions:

<%
// Add 45 gold to the inventory of the player
character.addGold(45);
// Remove 25 gold to the inventory of the player
character.removeGold(25);
%>

The amount of gold carried by the player can be accessed through character.gold. For example, you can offer the player to buy an item:

You ask for the price of the sword. The merchant, after peaking at your purse, agrees to sell it to you for 10 gold.

<% if (character.gold >= 10) { %>
    [["Okay !"|Buy the sword]]
<% } %>

[["I don't want it"|Continue]]

The link to the passage Buy the sword will only appear if the player has at least 10 gold.

In the passage Buy the sword, you can then write:

<%
character.removeGold(10); // Remove the gold
character.inventory.addItem("sword"); // Give a sword to the player
%>

"Hope you'll make good use of it !"
