Gift of Hedone: Monster Essence Working

Hello you beautiful deviants,

We have the foundational Monster Essence (Currency) System working - what i mean by foundational is that all the logic appears to work. Now it would be a matter of incorporating these into the shop, crafting systems and make the essence usable.

You can read more about Monster Essence and how it works as a currency HERE

But below for testing purposes I am currently in Region 1 - and you can see that other Regions are draining and converting to Hollow Essence, and these are in a slower matter converting to the current region.

I also have it set up where the order the essence drains in dependent on where you are

What i mean by that is, the reason Region 5 essence drained first was because it was the furthest area from Region 1. The concept behind this is, because it is furthest away from that area, its connection to that concentration of energy and magic is lower so it loses its essence first.

Then in the UI, I am playing around with it, but currently have it as a quick switch/swap between the characters Equipment screen and the Hollow Essence

If you have any questions or suggestions though, please let me know :)
