War Cats
« on: February 21, 2010, 12:58:00 am »

What exactly can I do to make cats trainable? I can't figure it out.

Now I could figure out flying...like that show on the history channel I watched...

Making cats trainable is as simple as adding [trAINABLE] to their entry in creature_domestic. Then, you go to the kennel and designate training of war dogs (yes, really) and if a non-adopted cat is the nearest trainable animal it will be trained by the animal trainer.

Flying... Flying is not so good for player races. They can't use it, and it also seems to screw up pets a bit (though not as much as sapient creatures are).

Also it causes lag when they are in the air and cannot pathfind their way. I'd suggest not to use flying on anything in the current version.

You mean Life after People?  Where you had the possibility of the flying Cat Forests in the remains of the sky scrapers?

(Technincally the cats glide not fly)  But yeah that was great I wanna see more Aerial Cat Forests.

But yeah just add the [trAINABLE] Tag to the cats and it works,  also I think most of the newer versions of the kennel name as "War animal" now,  I think I have Hunter/War Wolves and was considering adding trainable to bears and Rhesus.

Hey, somebody else saw that show!

Flying cats are better though!
