Robot mod?
« on: May 23, 2010, 03:34:30 pm »
Is it possible for robots to be posible?


They should have metal shells, sensor eyes, battery hearts and the like


They should bleed battery acid or oil.

Oil burns and acid causes severe burns on contact


perhaps water can rust them, it acts like rot and causes damage untill treated or the offending water is removed.

Everything except for the last line works.

Although your robot will be invincible, unless you want fleshbots.

what about making it so the metal housing only "dents"?

Is that possible?

You could rename all of the attacks in the game, leading to strange things with the creatures besides the robots.

One assumes yes. Whether they are actually possible or not, however, is a question for better minds than I.

that was a luky dwarf. I had one dabbling surgeon fail so spectacularly that the patient skull flew a tile away from the table.

DF doesn't mold players into its image - DF merely selects those who were always ready for DF.

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

The idea is cool, but it wouldn't be very mechwarrior ish... Everything would most likely be using a single crossbow like weapon. I think LRM's MRM's SRM's Small, Medium, Large lasers, PCC's, Long Toms, Flamers (possible with dragon breath, but no overheating, just dieing.), gauss rifles, etc...

I mod games and educate others how to do so as well, if you'd like to learn join my Discord and you can join a bunch of like minded individuals. (Presently modding Space Engineers and No Man's Sky.)

Looking into modding DF? This forum guide & wiki guide may still be a good start!

Someone has already done this, I'm certain.

Ah yes, here.

I'm open to suggestions in my thread. I could make a variation of it if there is a lot of conflict. I've been busy for awhile, so don't expect anything immediately.
