Adding a new status/condition to a unit
With inspiration form the 4 moon era, I created a new debuff/curse for units.
Basic idea is that they could work like poison and slow and add more variety to the gameplay.
It works by adding a ability or weapon special to the hit enemy, which can get removed either at the end of the turn or when standing in a village. With filter_adjacent it could also be removed via an healing ability, but that's not implemented yet.
The code of one of them is attached:
Weapon special Blinding can add a blind to the enemy attacks (reduces their hitchance and sets vision to 0). Status gets removed at the end of their turn, just like slow. Also adds a blind.png overlay while the unit is affected.
I would like the option to make the status a bit more visible to the user, by coloring the unit, but couldn't figure out how to do that yet. Help would be appreciated
