Bay 12 Games Forum

I would love to see someone add Purple Dragons (aka Deep Dragons) added into the underdark.

Yeah, exactly. Basically, it'd just be the Crematorium building that's been kicking about on the forums, but the reaction produces a plump helmet, or whatever instead of nothing. Problem is, I'm not sure if that worked at all.

Vermin Remains can be used as reagents.. just can't grab information from them like you can with animal parts.

Link to the Crematorium is located in my signature.. you can use any code from it as you wish.

Okay I've just checked and it said "text file are identical" with winmerge, so 03 raws are totally compatible with 04. No update is needed .

The only problem I have is that 04 crashes when I have your or any graphic set running.. I have to play with the graphic set off, sadly.

I was able to start civil wars in 40d by turning a civilian/mayor into a zombie, via dwarf companion.. they kill the zombie.. guard kills the killer.. spectators get angry... cheese for everyone!

I think this deserves a necro since it attracted quite a bit of interest

What's a necro

Necromancy: the act of bringing the dead back to life.. or undeath...
Term used for the act of bringing a dead and buried thread back from the depths of the forum. This act is usually frowned upon.
The only time that this is usually acceptable is if the Original Poster(OP) has a legitimate update to the tread in question.

Actually, I'll just start from scratch from the newest version, because some of the bugs in the first version was irritating.

By the way, one problem I encountered when making the mod was the lack of fictional materials.
What kind of metals/alloys should they use? etc.

All I know is that they should use a space marine substance that burns horribly

I second that, also make it tear open like a tin can  .

The Tyranids just use a completely new set of tissue layers ranging from chitin(leather), to Armoured Shell(steel).
also new internal tissues as well.

The new casts systems and layer definitions are so fun to play with.

I'm already working on Tyranids 5th gen for 2010 DF ... will have the basic race out soon.

but I'm only working on nids, someone else needs to do the other races.

Because that doesn't actually work properly. It's a bad example.

You can have a door stop pets, but the pets will still try to path through it. The game will still consider it a valid path, interrupting the animal every time he gets there. It's a common source of (possibly minor) lag.

In short, the pathfinding itself has no idea that pet-impassable doors are actually pet-impassable.

How is that a bad example.. In the real world, animals try to get through locked/closed doors all the time.. Its real world pathing.. just because the doors closed doesn't mean anything to them when their master is on the other side or they smell something good on the other side.

when I had a cat, you always sew his paw under the door as he was trying to get through..

So the game interrupts them when they try to get though the door.. same would work for the game.. sure it makes a minute amount of lag.. but to me, it is more realistic.

to me, tightly closed door pathing is quite realistic in DF... possibly because I owned a cat who always tried to get through the door.
