Actually...no. There is something possibly even better than necromancy or that sort of stuff. If we can get interactions to change a body part, we could possibly create a crude evolution.

That'd presumably mostly fall under the body part/tissue layer changes that won't be possible yet, unfortunately. I'm not clear on whether interactions would be able to act as "genes" in the necessary manner, either.

[Dsarker]

Oh, probably not total genes, I'm talking stuff like occasionally switching the head to a firebreath head or whatever. Yeah, probably not going to happen anytime soon, but we can hope.

[Rockphed]

Consider this: if you play as a dragon, you will be able to breath fire. [...] Actually being able to breath fire as a dragon is just plain cool.

I'm not sure why people are talking like dragonfire is a sure bet:

Fire breath hasn't been integrated yet.

And there's no guarantee that it'll be integrated before the release.

Bah!  Humbug!  I thought it had been.  Oh, well.  There goes pretty much all my reason for wanting adventure mode interactions. *pout*

[nogoodnames]

Even if it isn't implemented (which I don't see why it wouldn't be) you could still mod in a super hot breath attack with essentially the same characteristics.

[tfaal]

For anyone attempting to do that, I would recommend making the breath in the form of a mist, which transmits heat better than a true gas.

[Untelligent]

A while back I tried all sorts of varying combinations of things that could go in a breath attack to find one that could set things on fire or at least cause heat damage, but never succeeded. Closest thing I got was a dragon that spewed goop all over things that made them freeze to death.

Check the genesis mod.

Six days without development updates after two months of almost daily updates... maybe we will have a release soon?

[Johuotar]

I wonder if the next version is going to bloat more. If not then we might have soonish update.

I hope so. And it will be glorious.

I was thinking that maybe making interactions work with adventurers took a long time to implement, but maybe it's a bunch of uninteresting loose ends being tied up for release

[Knight Otu]

Yeah, with the past few big releases, Toady mentioned that it should come "in the next few days" when it was a few days to the release and he could tell. He hasn't said that yet, so I wouldn't expect a release. More so because he hasn't even said that he's done with the interaction interface.

[EmperorJon]

I've resigned myself to it being another few months yet, to be honest. Off on holiday soon, it'd be a pleasant surprise if it was here when I came back.

I went on a road trip for the last few weeks thinking the same thing. I hope you have more luck than I did

[Knight Otu]

At this point, it'll probably be weeks rather than months (and rather than days, for that matter). Stalkers (which might make the other likely night creatures easier to implement, so those might come in as well), sponsorship animals (I'm uncertain whether Toady actually wants to try and make proper beaver dams, but other than that, he might do little things here and there), preliminary testing and bugfixing at the very least. Emergent features could always happen, and I might be forgetting things.
