Magma Carp
« on: October 18, 2009, 08:39:41 pm »

Magma Carp.
I'll leave you to think over that idea for a few minutes...


...Ready yet?

Right, so my goal here is to have carp swimming around happily in magma pipes and pools, because fire imps aren't strong enough to cause problems, and fire men are too rare.
How would I go around making it so they will appear in Magma pools like regular carp do in rivers?
Everything else I've pretty much worked out...except how to survive them.

Take imp entry, replace relevant data with carp's, keep the biome and fireimmune tags. Its not that difficult.

I can give you my Magma Fiends if you like. They're basically Magma Carp, only their bites do BURN damage which means armor is useless against them.

Is it possible to create fire rivers? I guess it's not. Someone should tell Toady.

I believe we're supposed to see some magma rivers in the next version.

They'd make a lovely piece of scenery if they flowed around dark fortresses. Can you imagine it? A massive obsidian fortress, crawling with goblins and demons, complete with naturally flowing RIVER OF MAGMA.

I may have heard that there will be magma lakes. I know there will be lakes of water as Toady has said so himself, but as for magma lakes, I may be perpetuating a rumor here.

Still, Toady did say that there will (almost) always be magma on the embark, either deep down (May or may not be HFS related, or both) or near the surface in the form of magma pipes and pools. So its possible there will be magma lakes.

These cavern stuff will be damn fun to explore. I just may make a story out of an exploration expedition.

There will definitely always be magma on any embark; you just have to dig deep enough to find it. What form this magma will take remains to be seen.

Maybe; as you dig deeper you run into harder and harder enemies. There will be magma down there somewhere, but getting to it might be tricky.
