Seige beasts
« on: December 16, 2009, 04:11:59 am »

How do I assign creatures to serve as mounts and seige engines ala beak dogs and trolls during seiges?
I've been scouring the raws and the wiki trying to figure it out and i'm not sure if i'm just being oblivious or if its not possible

Trolls I think are hardcoded. I don't really know how they work.

The [Mount] and [mount_exotic] tags ought to control this. The creature has to spawn in a biome inhabited by the user race in order to be valid.

Also, I think things like [USE_EVIL_ANIMALS] and things like that might need to be enabled; just copy the appropriate [USE:x] tags from the other entity files.
