Making wolves drop arrows
« on: July 04, 2008, 02:37:52 am »

How do I make wolves drop arrows when they die? Iv been thinking about making a crossbow adventurer but finding more bolts to fire after iv run out of the first 20 or so is going to be hard. Thats the reason I've stayed away from crossbow adventurers up till now.

a) there's a way, but only one arrow per wolf.

b) next version, ammo will be available in shops.

Once Toady gets around to letting us keep the eyes we gouge out, you could give wolves a new organ, the Arrow. Then make it "embedded" so you can gouge it out with your hands.

You grab the wolf's upper body with your left hand!
You gouge the wolf's arrow with your left hand!
The wolf's arrow has been torn out!
You pick up the Iron Arrow.

Gouging embedded arrows out of wolves. Yay.

Just remember that this will be a usual organ, not ammo.
