Design ideas / Requirements

TODO: write this section and state current status here with open questions

• Spells should be configurable via XML
• Spells should follow the natures defined via the former DamageType
• Spells have limitations
  • limited casting frequency (cool down time)
  • wearing special equipment
  • spells should need knowledge to learn for casting them
• Spells are separated into 2 parts:
  • The spell itself defining nature, mana use, cool down time and other possible prerequisites
  • Spell's effect defining what the spell does i.e. a simple healing spell just uses a healing effect that could be reused for a mass healing spell affecting all players in range
• Spells use mana
• Mana should be regenerated
  • via potions
  • slowly when no attacks are aiming at the player
