Implementation Patterns

Blueprint System

Data-driven implementation that loads temporary magazine / clip attachment mark ii configuration from external definitions.

class TemporaryMagazineClipAttachmentMarkIiSystem {
  recipes: Recipe[] = [];

  craft(recipeId: string, inventory: Inventory) {
    const recipe = this.recipes.find(r => r.id === recipeId);
    if (!recipe) return null;

    for (const ingredient of recipe.ingredients) {
      if (!inventory.has(ingredient.id, ingredient.amount)) {
        return null; // Missing materials
      }
    }

    for (const ingredient of recipe.ingredients) {
      inventory.remove(ingredient.id, ingredient.amount);
    }

    const quality = this.rollQuality(0.15);
    return { ...recipe.output, quality };
  }

  rollQuality(baseChance: number) {
    const roll = Math.random();
    if (roll < baseChance * 0.02) return "legendary";
    if (roll < baseChance * 0.1) return "rare";
    if (roll < baseChance) return "uncommon";
    return "common";
  }
}

Material Coordinator

A modular approach to temporary magazine / clip attachment mark ii that separates concerns and enables easy testing.

class TemporaryMagazineClipAttachmentMarkIiHandler {
  recipes: Recipe[] = [];

  craft(recipeId: string, inventory: Inventory) {
    const recipe = this.recipes.find(r => r.id === recipeId);
    if (!recipe) return null;

    for (const ingredient of recipe.ingredients) {
      if (!inventory.has(ingredient.id, ingredient.amount)) {
        return null; // Missing materials
      }
    }

    for (const ingredient of recipe.ingredients) {
      inventory.remove(ingredient.id, ingredient.amount);
    }

    const quality = this.rollQuality(0.2);
    return { ...recipe.output, quality };
  }

  rollQuality(baseChance: number) {
    const roll = Math.random();
    if (roll < baseChance * 0.01) return "legendary";
    if (roll < baseChance * 0.1) return "rare";
    if (roll < baseChance) return "uncommon";
    return "common";
  }
}
