Is there a way to get [LAYS_UNUSUAL_EGGS] to create more than 1 item per laying? CLUTCH_SIZE seems to have no effect. It seems egg laying works for either gender, also.

^ this seems to be the best choice tbh. Only problem I need to figure out is to stop the cloths/weps from being dropped( or remove them completely), as well as get them properly named correctly once raised.. pre-generated raised have the name listed above, but any newly raised around the player will still display as "x corpse". But other than that, they change creatures and turn into the new ones, just gear and name issues to figure out :thinking:

Creatures drop all clothing when they die and when they transform, nothing you can do about that. I don't think there's much you can do about the name issue either.

Do resurrection interactions also have the "corpse" title?

The ones found within the tower don't, but any the player or newly transformed creatures do have it

But right now, you're using a reanimation interaction. I was wondering whether a resurrection interaction (which is different) would remove the corpse title.

Nope 1 item at a time, sadly. As it doesn't follow normal egg laying as it's nothing to do with reproduction. Altho you probably know more than one LUE will let them randomly pick one to lay during the process

will test this!




Edit: Its basically the same thing, just this time, they are just named their previous names (using OTA): http://puu.sh/zMz4A/d438d684da.png

2nd Edit: But it no longer allows them to make towers.. fml... will just use ANIMATE and change a few things then to make it fit with corpses.

Well it turns out you can have the males lay regular eggs too.

Random questions...

1. I know its possible to make civs with animal people in it, but its only 1 race... is it possible to have a civ basically be a haven for animal people and not just 1 spieces.

2. When creating creatures with materials out of inorganic and such (like bronze colossus) what all contributes to how strong the creature is? Density and Imp.?

For multi-race civs you'd have to make a different caste for each species, I think. As for the inorganic creatures, it should be the same calculations combat uses for armor of that material.

Only one species can be the founder of a given civ, but people are free to move around. Maybe if you had an assload of civilizations, one basic "animal people of some sort" entity with all the animal people kinds listed and tweak the preferred biomes a bit to encourage maximum immigration? Like having the civ have a chance to start off nearly anywhere, those places mostly being preference level "meh I guess" and have like one that's supremely attractive? To my reasoning, that should make animal people civilizations that are nominally just for one species, but end up with large melting pots in the given fertile places wherever the entity "seeds" land.

you could make it so The animal people are Pets in the Civ which ends up with More than one creature type popping up in the town and site.
so if you have like an entity with multiple types of Creatures who would start one, then have an ANIMAL token set for every Creature you want to pop up in the fort you could end up with a mixing pot of a civ that is run by ratmen or tigermen or Bearmen; with Tigermen, bearmen, and Ratmen as Pets you can generate world here the main Civ would be different but still persist with the followup groups that will spawn when you visit that site. also the bonus of buying or randomly getting those types of animalmen when you embark.

I've done some testing on that before - if you add intelligent creatures as "pets" to a race, while you can normally buy them in fort mode, in adventure mode you have to play from that civ with their main population first before that additional intelligent population becomes playable.
