There are games like Evolution: A Game of Intelligent Life (I think that's the full title).

If that Evolution is the same Evolution game I own in a box somewhere, it's just a very slow-paced RTS of competing clades where your critters slowly turn into more critters, can research their way to new species, and can eat the other guys'.  It had a cool hex-based world map though, with realistically handled poles...

It means you've been looking at too much porn.

Can such a thing actually exist?
  ~IT CANNOT~

Just how naughty must a tentacle be to count as unusually naughty?

It doesn't have to be unnaturally very naughty... it could just be naughty in a way that is unusual.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Like Purple Tentacle? That one was naughty in the other sense, and pretty unusual too.

Just how naughty must a tentacle be to count as unusually naughty?

I imagine somewhere between trampling the azaleas and intentionally breaking windows.

Plus the occassional enslaving of the human race and taking over the world.

[Mel_Vixen]

Isnt that a Mice work?

[Sean Mirrsen]

You obviously didn't play classic LucasArts quests.

[Mel_Vixen]

Nope but i have seen many cartoons .

With all the genstuff it would be interresting to code anrace of "Labrats" and the kings position gets renamed as "Brain".

01/16/2009: 837. Added nails (this will be most apparent once I get the raws back in for things like the big cats, as it'll need to get at the claw material to do damage properly)

Toady, I am wondering...will it be possible to define tooth material also?

[Duke 2.0]

 I thought Toady mentioned he had teeth set up earlier when me made sure there were teeth in the mouth. We have never had any real claw before, though.

The raw files posted last month have a tooth material that's used for the entire tooth BP.  So yes.  The tissue system would also let you precisely layer enamel and dentin and pulp, if you wanted.

e: does "redefined natural attacks to allow multiple parts (mainly for claws and biting) though it's limited in some ways" mean that attacks can have multiple damage types now too?

[bjlong]

^^^ speaking of, does that mean that there are multiple attacks, or one simultaneous attack with two parts, or are there two separate attacks that can come simultaneously? Or am I just over thinking things?

[Warlord255]

I think blood fountains might actually be a reality soon.

OH PLEASE GOD YES
