Creating a marsupial-pouch organ?
« on: June 25, 2009, 04:42:22 pm »
I m attempting to create some marsupials in the game, but how should I go about implementing it? I've considered adding a pouch organ, but then realized I don't really know how to go about modding in an entirely new organ.

Gave it a shot, here's what I made using the mouth as a template:
[BODY:POUCH]
[BP:POUCH:pouch][CONTYPE:LOWERBODY][POUCH][SMALL][EMBEDDED][APERTURE][GRASP]

The grasp tag is so that a mother will pick up and carry her offspring in their pouch, since the marsupials I'm making are all quadrupeds. Now, am I going to be seeing things go haywire, or will it work fine as-is?

Hopefully it won't end up with animals wrestling you with their pouches, but I'm not experienced enough with body tags to know.

It will. The animal will also pull stuck objects out of their bodies with their pouches. If the animal loses its hands it may even start punching with its pouch if it has GRASP like attacks.

Fortunately, the animals have no grasp type attacks. Well, I may give one of them some, but even so...Well, I suppose for the sake of ancient Australia some hilarity can be allowed to ensue. It's going to make adventure mode as strange as hell though.
