Bay 12 Games Forum

I'd love to see a Fallen London/Echo Bazaar themed mod. We could have fallen cities (Jerusalem?, Alexandria?, Cuzco?, Karakorum and London) as playable civs, and devils, rubbery men and rattus faber as non playable civs.
I guess this can't be done well untill we get caverns embark and sailing though,

Fallen London is actually what inspired my The Fall mod which is currently in the works. Some castes of Crooked Men are like rubbery men. Bats and cats for pets. However lately it starts to receive more diablo-esque elements like chtonic creatures underground etc. However Fallen London did have Brass embassy, demons and the like, so it may not be too far off.

This is the continuation of the old thread, updated and maintained by TomiTapio, and you can see the version of the game in the thread title.

Oh, someone found my creatures. I forgot I ever created them. Hah. They are supposed to be "alien"-like species from the evil biomes. Not like in Alien movies, just very different to normal wildlife.

There are various types of xen creatures. I think it's from my old Genesis Reborn. They have an illithid-like society, just based on soul consumption, not brain consumption.

I am not sure if Meph took them from the mod version where they have not reproduced yet, or where they already started doing it. I may look into that .

BLOODSUCKER gives a creature all vampiric behaviors, full stop.  It even works with pets.  Although, it could be that NO_AGING does something as well, you can see in worldgen people become suspicious when a creature does not age.

can there be vermin that sweats a toxic material all the time?

No.  Or rather, yes, but it won't do anything.  The only way for a vermin to influence another creature is with a vermin bite.

Can you elaborate on "pets" part if you have the info? What if I make an interaction which has a chance to give BLOODSUCKER to cats? Will they drink blood and drain people to death as normal vampires do, and will dwarves try to report that as a crime?

Okay, it is stupid. Even inorganic materials (i.e. gems dropped from gizzards) cannot be used in reactions if the creature is intelligent >.<.

You can have a reaction taking some item from specific material. However the game will let you select a different material based on the item type instead.

You can trust people not abusing this, but it is still broken.

I double checked it from work, it is done exactly in a same way. I mean I could make some stupid mistake, but it is unlikely. It literally does the same both to ettins and dragons . That's why I am interested to check it immediately, just gotta finish my work document.

Checked again, the material definition (slapping REACTION_CLASS after [SELECT MATERIAL:HEART] in creature raw) and reaction reagents are IDENTICAL. Literally no clue how this works for one and does not work for another .

OOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CAN_LEARN][CAN_SPEAK]

Intelligent creatures, disallowed to be used in reactions!
And semimegabeasts are intelligent bastards. Made a fool of me.
How could I be so stupid. Gonna work around that.

P.S. It literally downed on me like a lightning strike or a landslide. I totally forgot about this .

Yeah, there are many ways to do it. Still unsure why [REACTION:megabeast heart] works, and [REACTION:semimigabeast heart] is not understood . Something fishy is going on here.
