Assign element Icons?

[mephisto]

Well, I've seen in several scripts (Like Dargor Bestiary or DVV Skill/Item description), That is possible to assign Icons to the Elements, I refer to Fire, Water...etc.

The problem is that the Class Element belongs to RPG::System, and I don't know how to assign or add atrributes to the Element Subscript.

Or something like:

module RPG::Element

Element Icons = {Fire => '001-Icon01',......}
Element_Icons.default = Iconx

Because there are no a Element class.

Just put your constant in RPG::System or something. You don't have to really put attributes into a specific class.

class RPG::System

  Element_Icons = [nil, 'Filename', 'Filename', ...]

end

The method above just uses an array. If you want to get the icon, you just have to use something like:

icon = RPG::Icon(Element_Icons[element_id])

You could also use a hash, with element name as key and icon as value (letting you put defaults if you want).

That works perfectly for me .
Thanks for the tip.
