Heavily Modded Toad
« on: January 15, 2011, 10:19:16 am »
I decided to make toads more awesome.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I also replaced the dwarves in the mountain entity with-you guessed it-toads.

What do you think? Anything I messed up?

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

they need [INTELLIGENT] or [CAN_LEARN]+[CAN_SPEAK] vermin and pet tags should go also. You may also want to revise their speed and max age. Aside from that, would probably make a very hard core playing experience.

I coulda sworn I took off the vermin tag...

What's wrong with the pet tag?
Elvish McTrader: Can I interest you in this toad as a pet?
Urist McToad: Urist McOtherToad! I'd wondered where you were!
Elvish McTrader: Oh, no. Not again.

With the pet token you cannot issue any labor orders.

Also, creature tile 249? Really?

P.S.

   [SPEED:2610] - ahem, they won't move :D. At least in comparison with turtles and snails.

Also they have the similar problem with swimming speed - they will drift VERY slowly.

With a size so small, I wonder if they will be able to fight ANY non-vermin creature. I doubt so. A cat should be able to kill a dozen.

P.P.S. I think will SMALL_REMAINS you won't be able to bury them, and thus prepare to meed a TON of ghosts and FPS death (unless you engrave slabs).

Then what speed do you suggest? I made them faster than vanilla toads, and I left the tile the same. I also made them a bit bigger than vanilla toads-once again, what do you suggest? And, if you do suggest, what's the real-world equivalent?

Pick any suitable. I just asked do you mean them to be unplayable or is it an oversight.

Oversight.
How about size suggestions?

Look at those creatures you want them to be able to defeat and make them of a similar size.

Alright.
Oh, I also added dragonfire breath, superior fire immunity, and flight. Insanety!

EDIT: Stupid miners, why won't you mine?

Oh...Holy Armok...I just had the militia commander (a competent hammer...toad...) kill a cougar.

No reports. Must have breathed fire, but then why is there an ominous trail of blood leading to where the corpse is?

EDIT: Huh. Two groundhogs and a fox later, not only has Sarvesh been proved to use his firebreath, he has not gained any kills. Sad.

They're too small to hold picks.

Size factors into that?
Great.
How big do they need to be?

42500. It might be better for you to just make your own pick alternative.
