Fix the Fish
« on: June 15, 2008, 10:00:23 pm »

Despite how amusing it is to see your men ripped apart by carp. Can we please make them NON-DEADLY?!
They seem to populate allthe wastelands i wanna settle in and my poor orcs need to eat meat. But the hunter dies every time.

Solution: more hunters  ;)

Or, since you're playing a Modded race, why not just mod them less deadly yourself? Find carp, and change their damage to like 1:2:GORE with no [ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH] or something.

Let go, people.   DF is never going to be able to progress smoothly if people demand that any quirk or bug that gives the game character be clung to senselessy.   Fish aren't supposed to rip people in two, so it's something that should be fixed. 

Adding in giant monster fish is alright, of course, and highly suggested.   Get to it, modders.

On the topic of carp (or fish in general).
Do they repopulate, I mean once you take them out they're gone it seems for me. Never got any except the starting ones :(

Meh... so many fish. It would take you two seconds to fix carps but if you wanted to fix every single fish...

It would be faster to learn how to deal with them.

Thats all im saying :P

And afaik my orcs are very surviveable. size 8 etc. The problem is no ranged weaponry which makes getting rid of the carp and stingrays quite difficult.

That and they like fighting and tend to try to wrestle their enemies.

Fix all the fish except carp.  Rename them "blood carp" or "dwarven carp" or something along those lines.

Just make it so they can't drag people under water from the shore, and I think it should otherwise be OK.

Agreed. And honestly, it just isn't funny anymore. The joke has been clubbed to death, had it's corpse defiled, buried, dug up again, and dragged from the back of a chariot in front of the walls of Troy. Enough is enough.
