    Hi, I was making a "defense-rpg" map and made almost 100 items/level ups/new abilities/heroes/a spiffy dialog shop that randomizes and resets kind of like borderlands style. The built-in inventory system in SC2 is very lacking so I created a new map to make my own and it kind of eveolved to redoing the entire UI haha. I have been developing this on my own and got most of the set up of the UI done, havent added functionality to everything (procrastinating on the inventory system, not sure how im going to do it just yet. I'm Planning on making some sort of point and click / RPG breed , focused on the UI as of late so I'm not 100% sure on what the actual map is going to entail.

    If anyone is interested in assisting me with the coding/map making/story/etc or wants more info on what exactly im doing or can give me some insight, it would be most appreciated.

    UI UI 2 UI 3

    and ps the "skill tree" middle dialog window is just a filler right now till i get my abilities and such created.

    Thanks

    Update:

    Currently have a mostly working inventory system, just havent figured out the best way for dropping/moving/equipping items.

    Working Atrribute points system, just needs a few final things.

    Health/Energy bar fully functional.

    Actual map(terrain and such) is currently in the process thanks to mercenarymoses.

    RPG/Coop/Competitive/Defense/Hero Based

    Building Hero Selection tool

    @happy04: Go

    For the inventory system did you use the Item Containers? Or you made your own. Also if you need any help PM me.
