Kobold & Goblin Co-existence!? + more...
« on: May 25, 2011, 06:18:31 am »

Currently using ver31.25 unmodded aside from some things I added/edited to the Kobold RAWs so they survive through world gen with stuff like:
Code: [Select]
[DEFAULT_SITE_TYPE:CAVE]
[LIKES_SITE:CAVE]
[TOLERATES_SITE:CAVE]
[TOLERATES_SITE:CAVE_DETAILED]
[TOLERATES_SITE:TREE_CITY]
[OUTDOOR_WOOD]
[OUTDOOR_FARMING]
[INDOOR_FARMING]
[USE_ANY_PET_RACE]
[COMMON_DOMESTIC_PULL]
[COMMON_DOMESTIC_MOUNT]
[COMMON_DOMESTIC_PET]
- Some additional jobs like Fisherman, Milker,etc., Uses Good and Evil plants and animals, doubled Population number.

[INTELLIGENT][LIKES_FIGHTING]
[UTTERANCES][MISCHIEVIOUS]
[BONECARN][PET][TRAINABLE]
- And some other little stuff like descrptions and looks

I left their Ethics as is...and yet there was some unforeseen effects in the 3 worlds I genned, aged 50-100 years:
- Instead of trying to live their lives in their caves, they instead decided to merge civs with the Goblins. The Civ, groups, locations & it's citizens now has giberish names and both entities live in their Dark Kobold Fortresses together.

- They also joined the Gobs in baby snatching & murdering as well as getting ranks such as Law-givers, War Leaders & Generals (Sometimes even compelling the creation of the position with threats of violence, like Demons!)...though I guess they've stopped being thieves seeing as that they grow and make things now.

- They also make most of the footsoldiers/mooks in their wars but they don't eat the fallen (The Gobs stopped doing it too). Demon led attacks still brutalized the losers though.

And Kobold couples giving birth to Goblins....wait....what? Some Gobs also give birth to cutebolds?! So...uh..."life finds a way"?

Hmm...I guess the whole Civ merge was also true in certain senses too...they still give birth normaly though. But still...Kobolds giving birth to an immortal? Freaky...

Would have tried to check them out in Adventure mode but I remembered that Dark Fortressess exist in "parallel dimensions" there. Fortress mode might get more entertaining though...might actually see Kobolds riding giant scorpions or flying giant bats in sieges. No more ninja thieves though...

And now something extra...a Goblin was born in the midst of my experiments that did something... entertaining so to speak.

[UTTERANCES] kinda' makes it hard for people to understand kobold songs...

I wonder what would happen if we did a Kobold+Dwarf co-existence?
Or what about an Elf+Dwa-*squashed by hammerer*

This is ... strange but interesting. Kinda looks like duplicated raws, but even that wouldn't explain the mixed breeding.
I would really like to know what caused that. Maybe the game can't handle a civilized race with the pet-tag?

I know the game goes a bit wonky when you have sentient races with pet tags. I'd try removed the [PET] and [TRAINABLE] tags and seeing what happens.
