Core RPG handbook · Development build / version notes

The demo scene is the fastest way to understand how Core RPG systems are wired together.

What to test#

• Move around the grid and verify true tile tracking.
• Attack an NPC and watch attack timing, damage, hit splats, XP, health, death, and loot drops.
• Pick up and drop ground items.
• Equip a weapon or armor piece and confirm equipment bonuses update.
• Test only the skill content present in that demo version. Current streamed DemoIsland has no supported fishing occurrence adapter; use a configured FishingSpotActionHandler outside that streamed workflow. See gathering tutorials and cooking.
• Use an item on another item, such as tinderbox on logs.
• Talk to tutor NPCs through the dialogue/chatbox flow.
• Open merchant shops and test buying/selling against inventory state.
• Use the side panel tabs and tile markers to inspect RPG state while testing.

What to inspect#

Look at the player hierarchy first. The important components are usually split between parent and child objects so visual, movement, combat, and UI concerns stay separated.
