Too much valuable loot
« on: June 06, 2010, 02:07:16 pm »

Sorry for the newbie question, but how can I make it so invaders such as goblins don't always wear such valuable clothing (especially giant cave spider stuff).

It almost feels like I'm cheating when a caravan comes and all I have to do is give them a couple of 600 value GCS socks and get almost all the gems and metal bars I need.

Also sorry if this was asked before, but I couldn't find it.

An atom-smasher or magma pit to dump the gobbo goodies into would work, but right now it's difficult to nail down a specific material to a specific race other than the aboveground/underground distinction.

Well it really depends, you could narrow things down a bit. (I could be wrong, but bare with me.)

(This is from DEON'S GENESIS mod... So it may look different from yours. Just fyi...)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You could narrow down the weapons they use. You could change armor so all that is there is breatplate and mailshirt and leather. You change helm so there is just cap, spiked, 1horn. You could change gloves so there is only gauntlets. You could change shoes so there is only boots and/or boots_low. You could change pants so there is only greaves and leggings.

This could narrow down what is available to their civ. You MiGhT get op goblins though...
