Greasy Baby Animals

Postby Lunarius_Haberdash » Sun Jun 05, 2016 6:47 pm

So here's the thought..

1 - Let us pick up baby animals like we can chickens et. al, but have them take up significantly more room (Say, a pumpkin for a baby pig, a 4x4 for a baby cow). So we can cart those little bastards around.

2 - Let us 'grease' them with Linseed Oil or some such. A greased baby animal will actively evade you, and will run just a little faster than 3 speed. Attempting to grab a greased animal will result in some form of check (RNG maybe? A brief combat exchange?) to see if you successfully catch it. Fail to catch it, it gets a quick burst of full run speed and the chase is on!

Yeah, it's just for fun, but village competitions for the win!

Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Not necessarily.

I don't care 'bout no greasy-babies-catching tournaments, but, by all means, make them liftable while alive. I've been waiting a long time to make my underground cattle farm.

Oh no, carrying the animals definitely has utility, the greasy part was for fun.

Yeah that was sorta half-sarcasm on my side 'cause on numerous occasions our pillars of the society mentioned that "underground base should have it's limitations", most recently when a question about underground well was brought up. I'm afraid that'll be a concern if lifting animals is considered: maybe they'll make it so you can't drop an animal inside a cave/house/any "inappropriate" terrain (as with bushes), or you can't enter anything while carrying a calf in your bags/over your head, but, most likely, the idea would be put into a "maybe" box for good.

Could make it so that animals will inevitably weaken and die underground to obviate that underground animal area.
