Cat solution.... WOR CATZ!
« on: December 29, 2008, 12:35:58 pm »

I was inspired by a um... recent...post..... and thought about how KEWL it would be to have war cats. and make cats not adopt owners, for that matter.

How do I go about doing this? I know about the infamous [trAINABLE]
lol tr
tag, how do I get them to stop getting owners?

Train them, drop them in a pit, habitually feed them kobolds.

This isn't a solution.
Their ownership issue is caused by the VERMINHUNTER tag.
Remove it and they can't steal dwarves.
However they also won't be able to hunt vermin as the tag implies.

somehow this tag should get splitted... i mean hawks and foxes are also vermin hunter (not in df anyhow), but i dont think they are as possesive as cats are.

Try not to screw it up.

..I changed it to absolute dwarven zero instead.
Your number was way too much for the poor game.
This one is just as deadly but with less destructive fires burning everything or an overflow crash.

You never thought about the consequences of turning up the heat? I thought everyone knew about the (nuclear) catsplosion.

We knew the risks, we were just not prepared to deal with them.

To, say, VERMINHUNTER and ALOOF.  That'd be quite useful.

??? Aloof is the opposite of cats now.
a⋅loof
   /əˈluf/ [uh-loof]
–adverb
1.    at a distance, esp. in feeling or interest; apart: They always stood aloof from their classmates.
–adjective
2.    reserved or reticent; indifferent; disinterested: Because of his shyness, he had the reputation of being aloof.

For that matter, I think [ALOOF] already exists somewhere.

Nah, it needs a self-explanitory tag.
[VERMINHUNTER] and [OWNERCHOOSER] :P

The closest thing to [ALOOF], as far as my knowledge goes, is the cats' [PREFSTRING:]... which is irrelevant, really. If we change it, cats are [ALOOF]. People like them for their [PREFSTRING:aloofness].

But I agree, the token should be self-explanatory. I like [OWNERCHOOSER].
