ItemAttributeTemplate - jimdroberts/FishMMO GitHub Wiki

ScriptableObject template for item attributes, defining min/max values and associated character attribute. Used to configure item attribute ranges and their effect on character stats.

• public int MinValue

  The minimum value for this item attribute.

• public int MaxValue

  The maximum value for this item attribute.

• public CharacterAttributeTemplate CharacterAttribute

  The character attribute this item attribute affects or is associated with.

• public string Name { get; }

  Gets the name of this item attribute template (defaults to the asset name).

1. Create a new ItemAttributeTemplate asset via the Unity Editor (Assets > Create > FishMMO > Item > Item Attribute > Attribute).
2. Set the MinValue and MaxValue fields to define the attribute's value range.
3. Assign the CharacterAttribute field to link this attribute to a character stat.
4. Reference the ItemAttributeTemplate in item templates or scripts as needed.

// Example 1: Accessing attribute values from a template
ItemAttributeTemplate attrTemplate = ...; // Reference to the template
int min = attrTemplate.MinValue;
int max = attrTemplate.MaxValue;
CharacterAttributeTemplate charAttr = attrTemplate.CharacterAttribute;

// Example 2: Using the Name property
string attrName = attrTemplate.Name;

• Use descriptive names for each ItemAttributeTemplate asset for clarity.
• Set appropriate min/max values to ensure balanced gameplay.
• Link each item attribute to the correct CharacterAttributeTemplate for intended effects.
• Document the purpose of each attribute in the asset's Inspector description.
