General Discussion / Re: MSPA Homestuck: our universe is inside a frog

I can't tell whether Aradia's increase in height was because of a change in art style, (Hero mode?) or ageing a few sweeps when she removed the hair pins.

Still looks a bit funny.  I really have to contort my hand to get a good profile match.

Being prototyped with so many animals may have changed his hand's bone structure a bit. It could also be because of the perspective.

SBaHJ updated.

At first, I wasn't sure what the readme meant about the brown bloods being the only trolls able to dig; in the world I genned, everyone could dig. I found out that I had accidentally added the vanilla layer stones when I was adding a few other mods I use. Whoops. Anyway, I fixed that, and it's all working fine now.

I find it hilarious that brown bloods are the only trolls immune to a stone with "Vriska" in it's name. I also find it funny that Vriska means Demon.

I just stated a troll fort. So, trolls need the honk birds to get metals and stone? I'm sure that will cause a very different playing style. I think building everything aboveground is a nice change, though. I'll just need to remember to gen worlds with more above-ground z-levels.

How good are the four metals, compared to the vanilla metals? And is armormetal supposed to be so cheap? On embark, it's only 10 points.

You don't need to remove the civ_controllable tag from dwarves to play as trolls. While embarking, if you go to the "Your Civilization" screen, you can switch between Dwarven and Trollian civs.

So... I was going down to the Cabela's in Michigan with my father and little brother. We stopped at a Subway station to have lunch and as we walked through the doors, I noticed this and couldn't help but think of MSPA.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Subway is a matchmaker now. :P

Would a bucket filling business be the troll equivalent of a brothel?

It's a funny coincidence that the colours in the buckets match the hemospectrum.

When it comes to indigo rarity, it wasn't directly said, but the title "grand highblood" given to Gamzee's ancestor seems to suggest incredible rarity.
I assumed that it meant that he was just the leader of the Indigo bloods. I don't think Hussie ever went into detail about that. Anyway, just for balance in-game, because of their Building destroyer tag, high strength, and rage, it's probably better for them to be rare.

Psychic powers would be nice, but it would require me to make more castes :P (red_psychic, brown_psychic, etc.)

I can't even remember where what I was talking about was said, and I'm terrible at modding, so I'd be unable to help even if you were to add psychics.

For horns, I think whatever is used for bones would probably be used. Horns in Vanilla DF use BP, as far as I can tell.

I see there are a few caste differences now. I wonder if it would be possible to represent psychic powers. I remember there was a way the represent psychically picking things up using some sort of quick-healing body parts made of some kind of vapour or something similar to that. If I can figure out how it was done, or find where I heard it, you could probably give something like that to the low bloods.

I noticed a while ago that Subjugglators (Indigo blooded Land Dwellers) have an extremely low pop ratio. I'm just wondering why. Was it said in the story that indigo blood is rare? I only remember candy-red like Karkat, jade-green like Kanaya, and the pinkish-violet blood like Feferi and HIC being extremely rare.

I'd help with the horn appearance modifiers, but I don't know how to make or use them. I'm trying to figure it out, though. Or are you just asking for the words to use for them? I can think of a few.

I wonder if Jack was killing the frogs because he (like the other Dersites) hates them, or if he was trying to ruin (or at least slow down) the kids plans and annoy Jade.

Being able to eat is not the same as needing to eat, although all the reasons people assumed they didnt need to eat and are time immortal have been explained away by now so whatever. There is still not a lot of food left on Earth, and it takes time to make tattered clothes.

That is a good point. I didn't think of that.

Wayward Vagabond needed to eat. He was bugging John for a can opener so he could eat the food in the cans, and when he first became "playable" he complained about being hungry.

I figured out what was wrong with the Mutant eyes. You had
Code: [Select]
[SET_TL_GROUP:BY_CATEGORY:EYE:EYE]
[TL_COLOR_MODIFIER:IRIS:EYE:RED]
[TLCM_NOUN:eyes:PLURAL]
[TLCM_TIMING:IRIS:13:18]
[APP_MOD_IMPORTANCE:5000]
It should have been
Code: [Select]
[SET_TL_GROUP:BY_CATEGORY:EYE:EYE]
[TL_COLOR_MODIFIER:IRIS:EYE:RED:1]
[TLCM_NOUN:eyes:PLURAL]
[TLCM_TIMING:IRIS:13:18]
[APP_MOD_IMPORTANCE:5000]
(I hope I'm using "code" right.)

In the troll entity file, you mentioned wanting a diplomat name. I think Diplomarauder might work.

There could be an alternate timeline for each session's set of exiles, so that they would each get a different Earth.

I was having trouble figuring out what each troll's blood was coloured, but then noticed that it's the same as eye colour when I was looking through the Raws. However, Dark Green bloods don't have their eye colour stated in their descriptions, unlike the other trolls. Candy red bloods have amber eyes.

Another update is up. The one with WV.

Oh, people are already talking about it. How did I miss that?

Bandcamp has two new albums: Sburb and The Wanderers. Sburb is a Piano album. The Wanderers is about the Exiles.
