Cheat re-organization?

[Nick]

Now that ZQuest sports tabs in the style of Windows, I was thinking that maybe the equipment and item cheats in ZC could be combined into a single dialog with tabs (the ones on the same level, anyway).

I personally thing it'd be easier to manage them that way for quick quest testing sessions.

Perhaps. And while Nick has generously brought up the subject, I would like to reintroduce the "magic" cheat codes. We don't have any cheats which let us add or subtract magic from ourselves yet.

And those debug keys active in 182 were alarmingly helpful in testing our own / other people's quests. No, seriously, they really were.

True, It would be nice to do that. It gets annoying when you visit one of those dialog boxes then you forget which one and go right back to it. really gets me. :) I would like that to happen as well as the ability to add/subtract magic just like we can with heart containers. :)

Also, it should be noted that a cheat should be added for the boss key. I was suprised when the Magic key didn't cover that.

There arn't any cheats for dmap items come to think of it. It would be nice to have cheats for all 3 of them (map, compass, and the boss key) for completness.

when i get back from school, i'll make some mockups of what the new cheat system should look like, nested, hopefully. I would easily welcome the changes.

Sorry for the double, but here are the screens

[Sephiroth]

That would work out. I would welcome those kind of changes. :) That way I can just hit f4 to access the cheat menus. :) That is a very nice way to make it happen. :p

I think that would work well, Ganonator.

I really like that mockup. It's exactly what I had in mind... though the function key is a bonus.

One thing, though. There is a cheat for magic already, but it's just not in the menus (it still comes on with the level 1 items). It's / if I recall correctly.
