Drop Creature on death.
« on: January 21, 2009, 11:11:09 am »
I was planning on making a certain mod (which will not be named), but if its to work, i need to know wheter its possible to have a creature spawn (drop) another creature upon death.

I also need to know if i can make a creature that is immobile, and constantly spawning these creatures that drop other critters upon death.

Possible or not?

Neither is possible currently.

Well, it might work if you're willing to use vermin instead of full fledged creatures, but it sounds like you want them to multiply and ITEMCORPSE can only drop one thing.

Plus, vermin teleport, so they can't be immobile upon land.
