Blood makes mud
« on: September 12, 2009, 03:42:01 pm »

How can I modify the game so that wherever a pool of blood is formed the tile will become muddy?

Something appeals to me about sacrifice in order to get tower caps to grow.

As far as I know this isn't possible.

An idea that comes to mind is possibly replace a creatures corpse with a stack of water, then again I think that water is hard-coded so that may not be possible.

Edit: I stand corrected.

Yep, you can replace corpses like that.

Code: [Select]
[ITEMCORPSE:LIQUID_MISC:NO_SUBTYPE:WATER:NO_MATGLOSS]
Should work, haven't tested it.

Indeed.  He'll get an item called "water" from that, but it will really just be a melted version of what you get when you dig out ice.  It will be called water, but it will be fundamentally different from the flowing variety that has depth.

Just so I remember

I thought that was

Code: [Select]
[ITEMCORPSE:STONE:NO_SUBTYPE:WATER:NO_MATGLOSS]
Or do they do the same thing?

Also, swapping NO_MATGLOSS for NO_RACEGLOSS prevents error spam.
