I see.

And one more question again. How (and where) do I milk psychoactive toad?

At the farmers workshop, like any other animal. Although toad-shots are broken ATM, if I remember correctly[MAY have been fixed, but probably not. I'll have to check the RAWs to see if my partial fix got implemented.]. Because of the way the syndromes are applied, on reload, weird stuff goes down. There was a challenge fort on a glacier a while back that was supposed to ONLY use toad-shots and that went downhill fast because of that bug.

They are fixed. I seperated the syndrome into 27 individual syndromes.

I've read the earlier post re: bolas using hammer not the whip skill, but what does ranged:hammer:whip mean in the Raws? Following from this, were lizards meant to receive a bonus to bola use, but in fact do not?

Also, do you think it's better to use leather armor vs. plated hides? I know that hides receive a deflection bonus, and can be made from metal; but they don't have the same coverage as leather armor. Kobolds suffer without mails shirts

ranged:hammer:whip

"hammer" skill used for the attack, ammo of type "whip"

A little OOC and maybe mentioned before, but Netflix has the PBS Nature special on Honey Badgers and you can see why in real life they are so bold that Kobolds find them as fitting pets.

ranged:hammer:whip

"hammer" skill used for the attack, ammo of type "whip"

Also, if you check the actual kobold raws, you find this:

Code: [Select]

[PROFESSION_NAME:HAMMERMAN:bola throwers:bola throwers] => hammer
Hammer skill is renamed to "bola throwers". There are no hammer weapons that are small enough for kobolds to use, so that skill was free. I use it for the bolas exclusively.

[Zuzu Reish]

Ah yeah, I see it's all the same the same with slingers, except for using the PIKE skill instead of HAMMER, and using Slings instead of Whips. That makes sense...

... I suppose I have another follow-up, though: with the bonus to Throwing, were the Lizards meant to have a bonus to the Bold-Bola use? I ask because the bold-bola is included in the item_weapon_throwing alongside hammer slings and the like. If that is indeed the original intention, would it make sense for Lizards to receive a bonus to the Hammer skill?

[Meph]

Throwing weapons dont necessarily use throwing skill

[Zuzu Reish]

Yeah, I can see that from the raws; thanks for responding, as always.

Bug report: Stealing from a race will sometimes give you a plan of that race to build their special building made of leather. The problem is that the Thunder Coil will destroy the plan because its not fire safe. I propose making the [INSERT_RACENAME_HERE] plans ironbone instead of leather, to avoid that.

I'm thinking I may put up a Community Camp for Masterwork kobolds tomorrow.  Do you folks think I should post it in the Masterwork section or the Community Threads?

My instincts say Community Threads.

Yeah, Community Threads are where you put them. Used to be there were tons of Masterwork forts in the board proper, but Meph booted them all out at around the same time the the three threads per race were merged into one thread per race.

[CaptainKobold]

Fantastic!  Thanks, Arcvasti!  I put a pre-reg thing over there.

[Meph]

Its mostly because people that already play Masterwork go to this forum. But ALL people go to the Community fort section, which means you have a larger audience and player pool for community forts.

[CaptainKobold]

Aaaah, good point!

Possibly dumb question, can one make bone weapons?  Where would bone weapons be made if so?
