Is there a way to make a creature completely nonexistent?

The [DOES_NOT_EXIST] token, according to the wiki says, "Creature does not physically exist, but is known by civilizations and can be used for artistic purposes such as engravings." Is there a way to make them not known and not physically exist?

Don't make a creature.

I presume it's as simple as putting the aforementioned [DOES_NOT_EXIST] token into a creature's raws.

[Eric Blank]

I think that's correct yeah. They need the fanciful tag to be known to everyone iirc

You could also just make the creature but not add biomes or pet info. It effectively won't exist because it has nowhere to spawn

Copy the raws out of the interaction examples file for werebeasts, the one for the bite, not the deity curse. Iirc it should say i_source:creature_action. This is mostly all set up, but you need to change the reference to the werebeast in the syndrome to reference the Harpy creature Id and caste you want, and remove the ce_intermittent that follows it, because we only want it to occur once, right, and remove the end:x from the syndrome too. That's all I can think of right now because I don't have a computer in front of me. But you'll still need a can_do_interaction in the creature file to allow the to do it.

[FANCIFUL] makes them well known, and also prevents civs from using their materials if they can access them, [DOES_NOT_EXIST] just makes it do they don't, well, exist.

So just using [DOES_NOT_EXIST] will be enough to make a "never known creature" that can still be defined as one (for transformations, or curses)

Thank you all for the clarification. 😊

I not understand how make interaction in creature code.

[Eric Blank]

That part is complicated, yeah. Look at the code in the cat raws from creature_domestic, where they have a cleaning interaction. You'd basically want to copy that, and replace the reference to the cleaning interaction with your transformation. But make sure it doesn't allow them to transform themselves, so remove those parts that reference self. I think that one also has can_be_mutual, and you should remove that just because it doesn't make sense since the target should never be another harpy.

Also, make sure your transformation reaction can't target anyone that is already a harpy and has cannot_target_if_already_affected.

Oh, and by the way this won't make the target a spouse of or in any way affect their relationship with the creature that initiated the transformation, all you can do is change their creature/caste. If they were enemies before they'll still tear each other to pieces. Theres no way to do a spouse conversion or directly influence relations on command in the game at the moment.

I not make spouse conversion. I just use spouse_conversion_target token for harpy-sized humanoids. Harpies not convert enemies, they convert allies - stolen girls in harpy civ and another civ members if harpy is hero.

[ZM5]

Spouse conversion only works for night trolls - civilized creatures will not convert others.

[brolol.404]

Can a [CE_BODY_TRANSFORMATION] syndrome change a creature into a demon?

Well darn, that's a shame, answers an earlier question of mine though.
