I have been pondering positive effects from good biomes. I thought about doing this:

Code: [Select]

[PLANT:BUBBLE_BULB]
[NAME:bubble bulb][NAME_PLURAL:bubble bulbs][ADJ:bubble bulb]
[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:STRUCTURAL:STRUCTURAL_PLANT_TEMPLATE]
[BASIC_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:STRUCTURAL]
[GRASS]
[GRASS_TILES:28:28:28:28]
[GRASS_COLORS:3:2:1:3:2:1:3:0:0:0:0:1]
[WET][DRY][GOOD][BIOME:ALL_MAIN]
[SYNDROME]
[SYN_NAME:well fed]
[SYN_INGESTED]
[CE_BODY_APPEARANCE_MODIFIER:START:0:APPEARANCE_MODIFIER:HEIGHT:200]
Adding a syndrome to good grass that sets the height of a creature that eats it to 200%. This way your livestock survives combat longer, gets stronger and should give more meat/leather when butchered.

Thoughts? And would that stack, the more grass a grazer eats?

[Putnam]

Does [SYN_INGESTED] work with grass grazing?

[Meph]

Yes. Why shouldnt it?

[Putnam]

I'm not entirely sure if it's the same system.

Have you tested that?

[Meph]

Yes. It works. My EVIL grass has a chance to give OPPOSED_TO_LIFE to your grazers since a long time.

But since you ask, yes, I have just tested it again. It does work.

EDIT: Still, my question remains: Would that stack, the more grass a grazer eats? I dont really want elephant-sized agora bunnies. ^^

[Putnam]

It wouldn't since body size changes don't stack at all. The first one sticks and can't be overwritten.

[WillowLuman]

Yes. It works. My EVIL grass has a chance to give OPPOSED_TO_LIFE to your grazers since a long time.

Can I just say that is an AWESOME idea?

[Meph]

Thanks. If you like it, have a look at this: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=138577.0 The basic idea is to make your race evolve differently by the grass they eat, because that determines if you live in normal, good, evil regions, or how deep you live in the caverns.

How would I go around making a new crature effect? [I.E. Necromancer, Vampire, etc]

[Meph]

I think I read that minecarts on tracks that hit objects do not use their attacks, but instead the damage is calculated from their weight and velocity. The attacks are only important if a dwarf picks up a minecart and hits someone with it.

Which means that these are obsolete:

Just asking for confirmation, before I delete them.

What exactly do you mean? And Vampires have very little to do with Necromancers. The one is a curse, the other a secret.

[spikeof2010]

I mean like when in Arena mode how pressing "U" lets you change what "template" it has.

[Evaris]

Is there any way to add a new glass type, ex leaded glass?

Also on that point, would it then be possible to make lead bars be used for such?

[BlackFlyme]

Vampires, necromancers, disturbed dead, and so on are all interactions. The tag IE_ARENA_NAME will allow an interaction to be applied to creatures in the arena.

I believe that glass is hard-coded, so you wouldn't be able to add new types, but I'm not completely sure.

[MagmaMcFry]

It's easy to make new kinds of glass. Just make a new material and give it the IS_GEM template (not the IS_GLASS template, that'll mess up the stockpile settings menu). You can add your own reactions for your glasses (I suggest using a reaction class), and you can build windows with it using the Build Gem Window option. The only thing that you can't do with it is satisfy moods, but you can also add new recipes to craft vanilla raw green glass by using the product tag [PRODUCT:100:1:ROUGH:NONE:GLASS_GREEN:NONE].

[TheFlame52]

Is anything wrong with these reactions? They work, but the armor one sometimes produces nothing or more than one thing, and I'm not sure about the skills.
