creatures not showing up in arena mode?
« on: April 11, 2010, 07:30:32 pm »

So I've noticed that certain creatures don't show up in the arena mode, the underground creatures and random titans specifically. Is there any easy way to make them show up? Just copy paste them somewhere?

For the underground creatures, remove the [ARENA_RESTRICTED] tag. They're in creature_next_underground.txt

Where in the RAWS are these secret beasts, standard creatures?

I never said they were, I was just wondering if there was a way to "create" them in arena mode.

They get generated as part of the world-gen, and since that is hardcoded, there is no way to spawn them in the arena.  Sorry.

At some point, the ability to pull from historical figures might be implemented.

I seem to recall Toady implying in either the dev log or the FoTF thread that exporting the titans and stuff to the raws would eventually be implemented. Can't remember where, but he pulled the raws for a couple of them out of somewhere and put them in the devlog, so it shouldn't be too unlikely.
