Body enhancements/More lethal wrestling
« on: August 30, 2009, 08:23:15 am »
Hi.  I was wondering if anyone has made a mod which enhances creatures' bodily structures and makes wrestling more lethal? Being able to break quadrupeds' limbs, being able to snap necks Sam Fisher(dwarf) style, more vital parts to target et al.  If so, could someone link me to it?  Kthxbai.

I'm not sure if it has exactly what you're looking for, but...

Sean Mirrsen's Modpack.

It has something called the martial arts mod. Maybe you'll find what you're looking for there.

How wrestling works is hard coded. You might be able to change how it works by changing the body parts to bite, but I don't think you can change it to let you snap your opponents neck.

If you add the [JOINT] tag to the neck body part then you can grab peoples necks and snap them. You could also go and create joint/bone sets for quadrupeds and birds. I would give you mine, but it is mixed in with a bunch of other stuff right now and it would take me just as long to separate as it would take for you to make new ones.

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!

Confirmed. Adding the [JOINT] tag to the neck allows you to break them. Death by suffocation soon follows.

I tested it with an HFS adventurer, meaning that it was a lot easier than it would have been for a human or a dwarf. Still, breaking an enemy's neck makes him drop his weapon for some reason. If you can sneak up close enough to an opponent and have good enough wrestling skill, they're down for the count.

The reason that they drop their weapon is because of the intense pain that is caused by breaking a body part with the [NERVOUS] tag. I mean, if you just had your spine broken then you would probably drop whatever you were holding to right. As for the easiest way to take people out, I have found that breaking peoples spines and then gouging out their eyes will usually take down almost anything, no matter how tough it is.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Yes, every so often. They won't target them specifically - they'll be treated just like any other lockable joint.

Of course it's awesome walking into town and getting messages about batmen fighting humans and necks snapping.
