Journey

Journey is a spell-casting mod for Hytale designed to for ease of use and just like another tool such as swords or axes.

The mod introduces 30 unique spells, a level progression from 0-5, and Archetypes (subclasses which augment or add to your spell-casting style)

To cast a spell, get the spell book from the workbench costing 6 plant fiber and 4 light leather.

The various abilities of the spell book are-

Interact (normally F): Should be the first key you press, opens the menu for preparing spells and archetype tree. Ability 1 (normally Q): Switches between your normal item hotbar and your spell hotbar. Ability 2 (normally E): Switches between your level 0 spell hotbar and your level 1-3 hotbar. Ability 3 (normally R): Toggles indicators for your Conjure spells (spells which place deployables/constructs and have certain ranges and sizes)

Note: The reason for two hotbars is because level 0 spells are usually single function or very weak compared to level 1-3 spells.

Archetypes are selected when you first open the spell menu, and you gain features/skills at level 1, 3, and 5. (Subject to improve/change) The archetype skills and spell descriptions are mostly straight forward, and if any confusion occurs comment so I can work out a better wording.

Casting level 1-3 spells currently require spell energy, which is dropped randomly with increasing chance every mob you kill. (Mage Armor improves this chance)

The spell energy system is very likely to be changed in the next 2 days, so if any frustration were to occur make sure to comment any Quality of Life changes you would like to see. (this also extends to new spells or archetypes)

(I know already that starting with 0 spell energy sucks, so my first objective is to have some kind of starting energy system which should be out May 3rd)
