## Major Update: Rune Matrix Spell Dimension ### General Additions - Added UI poise indicator. - Added braking by pressing sprint on the ground. - Added *kickoffs* with sprint + jump on the ground. Kickoffs generally consume all poise, but will give you an initial boost of speed from zero. - Runes fire on button release in the air, so you can now buffer inputs like sliding. - Added *slideover*: Directional input towards a ledge while sliding and moving upwards can transform your horizontal movement into vertical. - Added the ***Rune Matrix*** to manage runes and vector modes. + Hold crouch + sprint on the ground to access. + Alternatively, shift + right click with item in hand. + Runes can be applied directly instead of through smithing. + Bottom button toggles vector mode (see below). ### Vector Expansion Adds two new vector modes: The ***Dream Vector*** is built for pathracing: Flying uninhibited over crags and through forests. - Instead of building poise from tricks, poise steadily increases while moving over a certain speed. - Wall jump velocity is changed to be additive instead of fixed. - Step height is doubled while soaring, i.e. you have sufficient poise. This increase is enough to slide over fences as though they were not there, for example. The ***Burst Vector*** throws caution to the wind, employing bursts of tricks to rapidly generate huge amounts of poise to use runes freely. - Floaty: gravity is slightly reduced. - Poise gain is **massively** increased per trick, but is lost when touching the ground. This behavior somewhat resembles the trick meters from skating games, which inspired poise. - Kickoffs act as high jumps, giving you an initial burst of vertical momentum to start off your X games attempt. To give it a sense of identity, the original Spirit Vector now encompasses "freedom of movement": - Poise is not lost from kickoffs. - Base walk speed scaling with poise is now reserved for the Spirit Vector alone. - In general, the Spirit Vector will not face the drawbacks of other vector modes. ### Spell Dimension - With full poise, press *crouch + sprint + jump* to begin programming your Rune Matrix. - Press directions to compose a spell. + Spells are formed from pairs of direction inputs, and control the shape of the Materia you are manipulating. + Imagine you are standing on a solid block of hyperdimensional "stuff." + First input chooses a direction: up is forwards, etc. + Second input chooses extrusion direction: up and down to make walls, left and right to extrude neighbors outward. - Jump to fire your spell, resonating with Materia from the Spell Dimension to form shapes called *Eidos* based on your input. + More complex (lengthy, unique) spells are more stable. They will last longer, have better range and be more real. + Try memorizing spells that work well with your style and gear. - *Eidos* are initially only visible to the spectre resonating with them. However, as long as your spell lasts, any materia you come into contact with will become tangible to others. + Effectively, you can now create your own DBSV courses in real time and run them with your friends. + Materia disappears at the end of the spell, and does not cause block updates. Any lingering Materia will naturally decay over time. *Huge thanks to the Sisby Folk and Phanastrae for the great ideas and feedback.
