LIKES_FIGHTING as a personality trait
« on: February 27, 2008, 12:00:00 am »

Right now you can give a whole species LIKES_FIGHTING but there's no degrees of that. It'd be great to have it as a personality trait; it might even be skewed pretty high on a species but there'd still be some variation. Makes the species a little more nuanced, less stereotyped.

awesome idea, really awesome.

creatures with a 100 would be berzerks and such, diving into magma to choke that fire snake. and creatures with 0 would go melancholic if they saw anyone get wounded from fighting

really makes it easy to customize.

You could also make [TRANCES] work the same way, although I'm not certain what trait would influence that. It seems like an odd thing for only dwarves to have.
