Take animals as pets?
« on: February 16, 2017, 04:49:35 am »

I often walk around towns and see cats and wish I had one as a travelling companion, or see bunnies in the wild and wish I could keep one as a pet. Can we get the ability to keep pets, and feed and pet them, and such? Maybe even have a [SOCIAL] tag on certain animals that lets you be able to tame them from the wild? Such as Capybara?

This could be done like they do with companions. I think it might not even be that hard to mod.

I think you'd need a reaction that gives them the required tags to let them talk. Then you could probably use one to remove the tags after convincing them to join you.

DFHack might have a script that can force anyone to join you without the other steps.

IT would be an interesting mechanic. Maybe a type of minigame could be employed for this.
