Combat system is a finite state machine with the following mechanics:

• Initiative is based on the players speed stat versus the enemy.

• Enemies will be susceptible to an attack attribute type (Physical, Tech, Magik)

• Player can attack, defend, or heal during their turn

• Player has attack options that can buff themselves for a certain amount of turns

• Healing items are only obtained by choosing to save heal packs when selecting healing nodes in the navigation

• Basic Enemies have randomized loadouts and weaknesses

• Bosses (unavoidable battles) have specific attack patterns and weaknesses that the player must learn and adjust to

• On a battle victory, the player can allocate a single skill point to Speed, Strength, Integrity, or Mana

The player will receive up to three nodes at once to select from. The game is not random and is a prearranged array of Node objects. 

These Nodes are Unity Scriptable Objects, allowing for easy rearrangement and reusability when creating multiple, similar encounters.

The prearranged array is also a Scriptable Object, allowing for quick swapping between different configurations when testing systems and creating demos.
