Creatures brought with sieges.
« on: October 28, 2009, 09:54:41 am »
    Goblins can bring [EVIL] creatures like beak dogs and trolls, but what prevents them from bringing other evil creatures like grimelings, foul blendecs, and dark gnomes?

I'm pretty sure trolls are hardcoded, but siegers will siege riding whatever mounts are available to their CIV.

Will they ride [MOUNT_EXOTIC] creatures, or just [MOUNT]?

If they have [USE_ANY_PET_RACE] they should be able to ride exotic creatures, provided they meet the other criteria, such as [USE_GOOD_ANIMALS] if the animal you want them to use is [GOOD]. similar usage for [USE_CAVE_ANIMALS], and [USE_EVIL_ANIMALS].

Trolls are only available if the goblin civ has a Chasm nearby - both of my successful fortresses have never seen a single troll during a siege, nor have I ever gotten them riding beak dogs.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

I'm hoping to mod in [EVIL][MOUNT] creatures for enough biomes that my orcs are almost guaranteed to have access to some kind of mount.
