I'm making an arachnid creature that's going to be similar to cave spider. I want it to reproduce through egg-laying, which is easy enough to do, be able to make silk, milkable, have horns, more than 2 eyes because spiders are freaky like that, and I want it to have wool.

So now my questions:
1) Is there a way to make it have wool while still having chitin? Like a woolly chitin? I want it to be shearable.
2) Could I just change the

   [BODY:SPIDER:2EYES:HEART:GUTS:BRAIN:MOUTH]

to

Code: [Select]

[BODY:SPIDER:8EYES:HEART:GUTS:BRAIN:MOUTH]
or however many eyes I want?

I think that's all of my questions for now. :3 I'll ask more when I have them. Thanks for any help/attempt at helping. <3

If you open body_default, you will find this entry:

Code: [Select]

[BODY:2EYES]
[BP:REYE:right eye:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][SIGHT][EMBEDDED][SMALL][RIGHT][CATEGORY:EYE]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:5]
[BP:LEYE:left eye:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][SIGHT][EMBEDDED][SMALL][LEFT][CATEGORY:EYE]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:5]
You can copy it, rename it to 8EYES and copy the left/right eye 4 times. That would work. I'm surprised it doesnt exist already.

Yes, you can have wool with chitin, you just need to add a hair-layer above it, which can be sheared. Best to look at sheep, and copy from them. They have the hair on the skin, you just need to change that to chitin.

Horns you need to add in the body too. For that add HEAD_HORN.

Wow that was quick. Thanks man! And yea, I didn't see it anywhere so I was kinda confused. I kinda assumed most Arachnid creatures had 8 eyes but the cave spider only has two apparently? Anyway, thanks a lot. I'll try my best and i'll post the results (whether they be failure or successful)

Do remember to rename the individual eyes in the body_default entry for 8EYES to all be distinct, otherwise poking out one will poke out all of the others on the same side.

Yea, Putnam pointed that out in another thread so I already fixed that. :p
