Dwarven barbed wire?
« on: June 11, 2011, 10:39:39 pm »

I feel like it'd be pretty cool, albeit relatively useless. Is it worth trying to make?

Can't. Can't make buildings do damage.

you could do a weapons trap wich uses a "barbed wire" lashing weapon/trap component.

it'd be a lightsaber trap, but think about the Goblinite and Elfnite!!

no, elfnite is pretty useless. but goblinite

and free bronze statues!

And then in Adventure mode, you'd be able to go around killing people with dual-wielded barbed wire.

Shit, do it.

you could make a wall component and just name it barbed wire in the raws and require metal to produce.

And guys the stupid posts on this forum are out of control..

You could make a 1-tile building that you can't walk on, but it wouldn't do any damage.

I think kerlc's weapon trap idea would work best.

You could make it a trap component...

Code: [Select]
[ITEM_TRAPCOMP:ITEM_TRAPCOMP_BARBEDWIRE]
[NAME:barbed wire:barbed wire]
[ADJECTIVE:rolls of]
[SIZE:500]
[HITS:5]
[MATERIAL_SIZE:1]
[METAL]

Good Job!

Now you won't have adventurers scratching in legends/adv mode, and it will still work!  ;)

Cool. I honestly think it would be pretty nice, even from a purely aesthetic view.

Bonus points if you only let merchants spawn on "Boats" (Slivers of land) in the ocean and then bridge off the rest of the outside.

Yeah, and no melee equipment.

Try to make a "Flag" by making an iron pole 5 z-levels high with a cloth (or something else soft) block sticking out, with the cloth engraved with the national symbol.
