how to create icebreath?
« on: May 16, 2012, 04:00:57 pm »

I have  been rustling around raws and i cant seem to create a TRAILING_GAS_FLOW or a TRAILING_VAPOUR_FLOW of a freezing substance like icy wind or ice breath or something T.T


Ugh.

The material that you are using has to be super cold at it's liquid form (for vapor, gas is boiled)

            [MELTING_POINT:5500] --- super cold liquid
   [BOILING_POINT:6000] --- super cold gas

Now this only works for emmissions due to the fact they are spewed out at those temptures, You can use a FIXED_TEMP too if you like

Hugo, that wouldnt work... you must use a material emmision that is liquid with a low temperature, because low-temp gas will not stay long enough to do actual frostbite damage. If you cover a creature with cold liquids though... that works.

Example:
[INORGANIC:METHANE]
[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:ICHOR_TEMPLATE]<--any template
   [STATE_COLOR:ALL_SOLID:LIGHT_BLUE]
   [STATE_NAME:ALL_SOLID:cardice]
   [STATE_ADJ:ALL_SOLID:cardice]
   [STATE_COLOR:LIQUID:LIGHT_BLUE]
   [STATE_NAME:LIQUID:cryo fatuus]
   [STATE_ADJ:LIQUID:cryo fatuus]
   [STATE_COLOR:GAS:GREEN]
   [STATE_NAME:GAS:ignis fatuus]
   [STATE_ADJ:GAS:ignis fatuus]
   [DISPLAY_COLOR:3:0:1]
   [IGNITE_POINT:20000]     <-----
   [MELTING_POINT:5000]    <-----
   [BOILING_POINT:15000]   <-----
   [HEATDAM_POINT:NONE]  <-----
   [COLDDAM_POINT:NONE]  <-----
   [MAT_FIXED_TEMP:NONE] <-----
   [SOLID_DENSITY:8000]
   [LIQUID_DENSITY:1]
   [MOLAR_MASS:18]

Glad to hear it. What did your mod with it ? A frost spell, an ice dragon ?

       I used it for a giant Slug; a megabeast. I dont have a name, but it releases this ice cold gas as defense.
