Lava Carp
« on: December 19, 2010, 02:56:27 pm »

Can someone tell me how I would go about modifying the raws so that carp don't die in lava?

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEE. Make them into skeletons, and give them dragon breathe.

Why not skip the middle man and just mod dwarf tissue to fall apart instantly? o_O

Have you tried giving them [FIREIMMUNE] and [MAGMA_VISION]?

I want to use them in my lava moat. :D

I'll try the [FIREIMMUNE] and [MAGMA_VISION] right now. Thanks!

EDIT: Nope, they still die.
Can I change their blood material to something magma proof?

EDIT2:
I've done it!
I just poked around the magma crab raw and copied the part that makes it boil and melt at a higher temperature.
Is there any problem with making magma crabs butcherable?

You can test with butchering quickly in the arena. After a creature die, look at it, if it's butcherable you'd see "a: Butcher"

I already made them butcher-able. I was wondering if something bad would happen had I butchered one in-game.
(The butcher melting, for example.)

Not unless you copyed the [HOMEOTHERM: tag aswell. I think magma crabs have a high one, so butchering one will result in your butcher burning hes hands off.

Oh, and you might need to add [BIOME:SUBTERRANEAN_LAVA] if you want them to spawn in lava.  Granted, this is unnecessary if what you want is regular river carp that you can dump into lava, since those will spawn in rivers just fine.

Considering I prefer glaciers myself, that's a good idea. :)

They also need to have a [NOBREATHE] tag to survive in magma/lava.
