Devlog 3: Kayla Tavares de Almeida: Spell UI and Cooldowns

SpellStorm
A downloadable game

For this week I worked more in depth in the spell UI and getting all the important information on screen for new players. I needed to get the spell queue on screen and show that the tokens that you use for spells were actually being used up.

So what I needed was to make those colored tokens disappear when used up, reappear off cooldown, and make the center white crosshair change it's color based off of what spells you have queued up. First day I tried getting it done it went almost perfectly. I got the Queue updating when prepping, casting, and clearing spells, but the tokens just weren't updating correctly.
