"Shoo" option for trolls

Post by neeco »

I feel like those of us with cave hermit really deserve it. Imagine how much fun it would be.

I'm not entirely sure you really need ways to "control" trolls.

If trolls can bash brickwalls (or even palisade) this would be a potential problem by making it really use to use Troll as siege weapon for underground bases. Other than that, it could be reasonable -if it has chance to aggro the troll instead.

Shoo option for trolls with 100% chance for aggro, but it could be lowered by your psyche and credos.

The shoo animation could be the character doing the troll chest drumming.

Nice. Why not add this as an aimable emote in the first place (with the side effect of shoo'ing trolls - or pissing them off)?
