Oh, thats good to know :smile: I might be able to contribute in some way then haha.
I like the fine line concept. I think powers should have the option to be used for good and evil depending on who is in control of them. Some powers might not make sense being both good and evil, such as those to inflict pain, but then again superheros need some powers for use of fighting against villains so i'm not too sure.
With NPCs, (if you want superheros/villains but don't want to play as one) would they be a new npc with a specific role of superhero or villain? or would they, for example, be a mailman with a trait to make them show up in certain scenarios? I'm a little confused and not sure how to explain what i'm trying to say :flushed: Would lots of random npcs get given a superhero/villain trait or would one specific npc purely for the superhero/villain role be generated? (very bad at explaining :lol: ) I understand that if it were to be traits it could be given to any sim which might be quite annoying if every random generated were to have powers of some kind. I'm starting to confuse myself so good luck deciphering that :lol:
Earlier you mentioned using a lightening strike to knock a sim down, this I would say, would be a villains power but then again it comes down to how it is used I guess.
Whether this is even doable, but say a sim has a fire power (for example) and another has a (don't know what to call it but - the ability to steal a power, or skill, for a brief moment) they could mimic or steal the power for a certain amount of time. A buff could be used as a timer? Siphoning?
Also to do with superspeed. As well as moving fast would tasks such as eating, showering etc be able to be completed in superspeed?
Another thing that would be cool would be if they could morph into a different sim. Changing appearance could maybe work as we have alien disguises but getting other sims to recognise the sim as someone else would never work as you can literally populate an entire world with sim copies :lol:
Regenerative powers- perhaps all needs?. As well as using the power to help others but also maybe taking away from others to heal and fill your own needs?
What about any weaknesses or consequences? Maybe if it uses skills then a low level might mean they can only use their power for so long before getting tired or something? Water related powers could regenerate by swimming or bathing? as an example.
A quick question - what would be the non-cas way?
:smile:
