Searching for a [TAG]
« on: September 21, 2008, 07:29:09 pm »

Did a few searches but I still cant tell which tag it is Im looking for. Im looking for the tag that makes creatures attack you when youre Shift+T ravelling in adventure mode. Is it [AMBUSHPREDATOR]? I thought that just made them stealth. Is it [LARGE_PREDATOR]? Because I know you can only have 1 of them on a fortress map at a time. So I guess the tag Im looking for is whatever wolves/cougars share to ambush you from adventure mode; but Id like to be able to have both of them on the fortress map at the same time.

Any suggestions?

[LARGE_PREDATOR] is what you're looking for. Yes, only one cluster of predators can appear in fortress mode at a time, unless you're in a savage area (Joyous Wilds, Untamed Wilds, or Terrifying), where you can have two clusters of predators at a time. In adventure mode, you will sometimes be attacked by a cluster of predators while traveling.

[AMBUSHPREDATOR] means the creature will start out in sneak mode. I'm not sure if it has an effect in adventure mode.

Ok. Im assuming the 1 or 2 per Fortress Map only includes wild ones and not ones in cages... right?

Correct.

Also, on Benign (serene, calm, sinister) regions, you won't find any predators at all. Plenty of homicidal herbivores, though. Like elephants and unicorns.

Actually you might be able to mix the [BENIGN] and [LARGE_PREDATOR] tags to have predators in benign areas.
