Adamantine Skin?
« on: October 16, 2012, 07:41:33 pm »
So I've been toying around more with custom races and I was dabbling in the types of skin I could make them have. I tried with something kind of strong at first, Adamantine. For some reason though, since I've changed it from bronze to adamantine, my characters die QUICK, every hit severs their body parts no matter what! I'm not sure if maybe I'm doing something wrong with the Creature_standard.

It appears that instead of giving it adamantine skin you made it entirely out of adamantine without specifying any other tissue.

To this day the elven warrior castes hunt the enemies of nature for the purpouse of bringing back slain intelligent beings for consumption by their leaders and generals, for the good of nature and the survival of elvenkind.

And that is the story of how napalm was invented.

I was hoping that it'd be best to be entirely out of some sort of uber metal, does that make it worse or better being all adamantine?

It makes it very light. It'd be fairly easy to knock it away with a heavy hit or something. It's essentially indestructible though.

Look elsewhere, reader. There is nothing for you here.

Hmm... Well, I copied your creature into my game and couldn't find anything wrong with it, besides a misplaced [INTELLIGENT] tag, it should be higher up, I'd put it just below [FANCIFUL], also if you have [INTELLIGENT] then you don't need [CAN_LEARN] or [CAN_SPEAK] as it already adds them both.

Have you redefined adamantine in the Inorganic_metals at all?

All I get when it's in combat is such and such's attack glances away from it.

Dwarf!  Indeed, a devious delight fond of drink and industry deceived as both do-gooder and devil by the delusions of deities.  This demander, no daft demeanor, is a driving force of the deadly diocese, now disappointed, delirious from goblin deception.  However, this delicious derangement of a demolished diamond stands determined!

The problem was that [INTELLIGENT] and [CAN_SPEAK] interrupted the adamantine tissue, causing the tissue to not really do anything useful.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Here is a improvement on Funk's code:
Code: [Select]
[TISSUE:ADAMANTINE_P]
[TISSUE_NAME:adamantine plating:NP]
[TISSUE_MATERIAL:INORGANIC:ADAMANTINE]
[MUSCULAR]
[FUNCTIONAL]
[STRUCTURAL]
[RELATIVE_THICKNESS:1]
[CONNECTS]
[TISSUE_SHAPE:LAYER]
        [HEALING_RATE:1000] // The lower the rate the faster
[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_CATEGORY:ALL:ADAMANTINE_P]

Can anyone make a dwarven caste with that tissue code?, I've been toying around but I can't seem to get it to work.
