Requesting an ant civ mod.
« on: December 13, 2014, 11:42:21 am »

Imagine how fascinating it would be.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be that difficult, I just lack the experience to do such thing.

I don't know if it exist yet, but here around you can find a nice number of well-made mod guides, encrusted with !!science!! and studded with !!fun!!. Reading one of these could help you to forge your own mod.

Change civ creature to ants, scale up the size of all other creatures by x1000. Replace tools with mandibles - recipe for fun.

would need more castes though. Only the queen gets to breed, worker ants and I think soldier ants all have to be female. If you don't put any gender tag on them it should use the feminine pronouns. I don't remember what the ant version of drones are.
