Instructions for Grader

• You can generate the first required event related to adding Xs to a Y by selecting a save to load, and with a character registered and loaded into the system, clicking the "Add Item" button in the center of the screen. This will add the item selected from the combo box below it to the character's equipped items.
• You can generate the second required event related to adding Xs to a Y by selecting a save to load, and with a character registered and loaded into the system, clicking the "Add Feature" button in the center of the screen. This will add the feature selected from the combo box below it to the character.
• You can locate my visual component by glancing at the top of the screen! The title bar is an image.
• You can save the state of my application by clicking the header tab labelled "File", then clicking the menu option labelled "Save Workspace Image"

Phase 4: Task 3

Refactoring:

• ScoreType and StatType have duplicate methods for application of modifiers; replace with inherited methods from a singular superclass
• "ListPanel-type" classes in gui need to be consolidated into one arbitrary-type ListPanel class, with ScrollPane functionality built into the ListPanel instead of a externally-defined wrapper panel
• Use and implement exception-based handling more
• Consolidate ScoreType and StatType into a single enum with metadata
• Use enum metadata more for easier handling
• Segment Feature class into multiple subclasses either extending a superclass or extending a Feature interface for easier handling (possibly with a composite design pattern for MULTI type)
• Swap some Lists with Sets for more streamlined handling (Features in Character, for instance)
• Perhaps decompose and delegate stat and score handling and updating from Character to another class?
• Replace the double "Class and Level" List+Map system in Character with a single Map that contains the class index with the class name key
