But man...a Glowing one comes to your fort...and suddenly some of your people start rotting...some go feral, some just become ugly immortals.  That would be awesome.

Is the new system able to make effects make contact in an area around them? (As in the ghoul would be radiating the effect rather than having to attack/activate something to make it set off the reaction.)

I actually don't know...but glowing ones have a radiation burst ability...and I figure that could be used to pass the radiation syndrome.  But I wonder how the mists and storms are generated in evil areas...and if you can attach that to a creature...

[Exlo]

I see gratuitous amounts of !!SCIENCE!! about to be done in this thread...

[Deon]

You cannot attach mists to a creature. Glowing ones will cause radiation poisoning through gas clouds.

By the way, with the way the crossbows work in the new version (really deadly) I don't think I should even alter the ranged weapons for rifles (if I make them MORE powerful... yeah, the game will be broken ).



I've already modded in basic races (vault dwellers, wastelanders, supermutants and ghouls) and I've replaced domestic animals (removed vanilla, added bighorners, brahmin, iguanas and dogs). I've also replaced weapons (added drills, machetes, bayonets, crowbars, rifles, knives, axes and sledgehammers). But it's just a first step. There's so much to do...

dear doodoo...might want make sure my guys have layered clothing...on their heads

[Deon]

Clothing won't help.

More good news. The plants are done. All alcoholic drinks cause dizzyness, some of them have side effects like pain in the head or even blood coughing, but nothing major.
Some of them are good. Different tea types temporary add NO_SLEEP, and some powders and drinks add NOPAIN. Now onto drugs.

[Deon]

Allright, testing various stuff in adventure mode.

Apparently "shoot them in the head!" does not always work.

The first release should be out soon, with major races, proper plants, domestic animals, items and drugs. And of course radioactive rain and clouds.
Then I will take my time replacing all overworld creatures.

[JediaKyrol]

oh yeah...did the robots transfer over well?  or do they need to be rebuilt?  Is there anything new we can do with them...other than making a playable Mr. Handy with with working flamethrower?

[bombzero]

so your saying that instead of guns being glorified slingshots, they will be... guns?

i personally love the new ranged weapons. i dont really see crossbows as a 'bruising' weapon anyway.

With the new Update the Eyebots and other robits can Shoot real Lasers! aww yea!

I honastly want the old flame shooters to exist in some way, rather than giving them all lazers. Flamer versions seem fitting for most, and I wonder if colder and hotter versions of the Dragonbreath template could be used to reprisent increasingly hotter versions of the flamer attack, and perhapes some sort of freezing wave of "fire".

[Bitoru]

This. Will it come out anytime soon?
Can't wait to play it. 

[joeybowling]

i to look forward to it. you do really good work. but i'm sure you have other things to do as well so no hurry.

[Deon]

As you see, I am adding custom monsters to the game and working on other issues:

I should probably hurry up with "basic" features and release it as a first version, but I am sure everyone wants it to be as complete as possible before they start their own fort.
