In the meantime, Gnorm, we're waiting to see what you can make happen. What are you working on now?
Creatures in the evil regions. After that, I'll work on some exotic wildlife for the good regions.

Perhaps, or perhaps the chichevache.

Hey, were my metals ever added into a turn?  I haven't been able to check.

I can't mod, but I can give ideas.

Same, I'm looking to try next month probably. Generally too busy.

Would it be possible to have towers occur in this mod. If so, how?

Towers are built when a being has 50 or more reanimated followers. Treelord outcasts might occasionally build them, but they are almost nonexistent. Therefore, an interaction with reanimation is required.

Q: Does it work with resurrection?

If you use a resurrection-transformation (or reanimation-transformation) whereby the same interaction both animates and applies a body change, does worldgen mode remember the transformation? Because either way, you could have more interesting creatures in towers than (just) zombies.

Are we talking about ANIMATE or RESURRECT here? The two are very different.

ANIMATE only. ANIMATE makes a soulless undead; REANIMATE brings back a living unit.

In my Doctor Who mod, the cybermen animate dead corpses and transform them into cybermen, and build towers, so I can confrim it works in this version.

I mean RESURRECT, not REANIMATE, btw.

Yes, just to be clear, RESURRECTED UNITS WILL NOT RESULT IN TOWERS. You can give your POI a resurrect ability, so they can turn formerly "reanimated" minions into fully functional units, but they won't build towers unless they have a working REANIMATE interaction.
