Breeding dragons?
« on: February 07, 2013, 11:07:05 pm »

I have 0 programming knowledge, but how would one go about modding Megabeasts to breed?

You don't need programming knowledge.

Add [CHILD:1] to the dragon's raw in creature_standard.txt; this will make dragons children (thus CHILD) until they are 1 year of age (thus 1), at which point they will be fertile adults.

doesn't have to be [CHILD:0].  You could replace the 0 with any number: the higher the number, the longer before your dragons are breeding grownups.  [CHILD:12] would be the same as dwarves, for instance.

I meant 1, 0 was a typo. What Tevish said is still true, though.

Thanks! That helps a lot. I wasn't sure how the tokens/tags worked. Because after looking through some of the other creatures' it looks like some tags have tags and... yeah I was confused.
