-Going to make some changes, what is here is not the final suggestion- Collaboration with @BirdsAreCool Erythrism is a pigment mutation in which the fur of an animal is abnormally reddish or orangeish. Like with albinism or melanism, the animal's color is drastically changed but, depending on the animal's environment/lifestyle, it won't be negatively affected too much, as with leopards. This has been recorded in European badgers, wildebeests, jackals, katydids, and other animals as well.This gene would have no effect on your animals except making them more orangey/creamy in color, whatever their fur color. The animal will be a darker color of orange the darker they naturally are. You can see this with leopards, as their naturally black spots are pretty dark compared to the rest of their coat, which would be tan/white. Here are examples of erythristic animals. Insects affected by erythrism are turned pink! Perhaps toxic body creatures with erythrism can be pink, since I don't imagine a toxic body being furry and instead being more like the texture of an insect. The gene would be pretty useless honestly, giving no boosts and no disadvantages either. It's just another pigment mutation that can go beside albinism and melanism pretty much, but I thought it'd still be cool to suggest. At least it adds more color variety to your creatures eh? This gene will not affect red fur, yellow fur, or orange fur (red and yellow combination), since these colors are technically already erythristic (red pigmentation). If the horn color has orange it too won't be affected, but if not it will. Erythrism would be recessive to melanism and albinism, albinism > melanism > erythrism.

Sorry, I wasn't sure if you meant in real life or the game. I'd like to see some debuffs like UV sensitivity and shortsightedness added to albinism to show that it can be problematic Erythrism could still be implemented as an extra, I mean we've already got melanism and it's not like niche follows realistic colour genetics anyway. It's also completely possible to have two mutations which have the same outcomes. Plus it is kinda cool Whether or not red or yellow fur deactivates it would probably depend on if melanism deactivates black fur, which I think it does. I'd probably have it dominant over all fur colours, regardless of how much red pigment they already have. It just wouldn't have a visible effect on red/yellow/orange/etc2 points

I agree with @Bostonlobstah. Erythrism is a term used for animals with an absense of black pigment and/or an excess of red pigment which is normally only used in species that typically have a different colour i.e. where a spontaneous mutation has occured. The red, orange and yellow fur colours in niche are technically also a form of erythrism. The mutation that caused these fur colours would have exactly the same affect as a mutation for erythism, only the mutation for erythrism would be recessive to other fur colours rather than incompletely dominant You could for melanism, which is basically the opposite of erythrism. A melanistic animal is any animal that lacks red pigment and has high amounts of black pigment You couldn't for albinism though, which is different from just having white fur. White fur is caused by an absence of pigment cells in the fur, which means that no pigment can be produced. Sometimes the pigment cells can also be missing from the eyes and ears, which causes blue eyes and deafness respectively. Albinistic animals have pigment cells, but a mutation affects a protein that is essential in the production of pigment. In albinos, hearing isn't a probem seeing as the pigment cells are present, but the lack of pigment causes sight problems. Albinos are also prone to sunburn because they don't have any pigment in their skin2 points

We start with our starter, Giraffe Child. "Huh. Where am I" she asks as she looks around. As she goes deeper into the grasses, she finds something... odd. "Whose are these?" She asks out loud, staring at the white bones. Uh oh! Rich Russian Grandpa! As she grows older, she finds a little baby hidden in the grasses. "What's your name?" She asks. "Takuro." He whispers. Another bear! When Takuro finally grows up, they decide to have a child. Oh no. A bearyna has killed them both. Time to start with a new bloodline! That's all for now. Also, this challenge was made by @Niche Police. (A.K.A. Skysplash8)2 points

I had found that a NOT gate could save me the time it takes to charge jump thrusters. Said thrusters need approximately a fourth of a second to completely unload, so add a buffer to that because I rarely manage timings well and I rather let the computer. Thus: jump thruster(s) with input key "charge"; NOT gate with input key "jump", input tag "jump 2", output key "charge"; buffer gate with input key "jump", output tag "jump 2". Jump thrusters will be charging on their own, and stay loaded until you press "jump"; at which point they will kindly take the time to pull you out of a cave filled with lava, then charge up again in case you were thinking of going back. --- An old trick: distance and proximity sensors can act as buttons for half the space. Set one to "Own drone" and target something that should not move around too much.2 points

My brother is intend on naming a rat Master Splinter (the guy who trained the Ninja Turtles) But since you are getting females I guess that won't fit that well. I like the idea of greek or any godess names like Athena, Hela, Hera and stuff (I know Hela is nordic mythology). Or you just go with Flake, Snow, Blizzard and Frost because they are all gonna be albinos. I had male rats a while ago and two of their names would work on females Rainbow and Star (rainbow was my sister's rat and she named him). All in all this post is a little chaotic, mainly because I can't think of good female names or have to many pop culture references XD1 point

I'd rather not have a dead patch in the middle of the camp or Nukkir the infertile cactus merging with his namesake. That sounds really buggy for not too much benefit. Not sure about programming effort, but that would propably be the element to make or break the suggestion1 point

As of this post, the majority of the dominant racing drones are using almost no propulsion other than forward facing afterburners after a jump start in the starting area. If drones are successfully navigating courses with nothing but afterburners, I don't think courses need to be easier, I think they need to be harder to encourage more build diversity. At some point, I'll post all the crazy stuff I've made that touches on this topic.1 point

Interesting idea! Lemme do this in my interpretation: January= A light colour of blue February= Royal blue March= Gold April= Baby yellow May= A pretty pink colour June= Something summer-y, like yellow-orange! July= Red August= Crimson September= Blue October= Orange November= any autumn-related colour December= Something Christmas-y?1 point

I like the idea, but I honestly don’t see a need for this as it won’t be much different from brown shades.1 point

I won't name all of them, I'm sorry. I can't name a ton at once. Please only submit a maximum of 9 creatures at once. However, i will name the black guy and the pregnant lady. Male: boogie boogie female: Velveeta because... reasons.1 point

Sorry to hear that. Happened to me too a while back. First the left arm and than a few years later the right arm (I am right handed) so that sucked. Hope everything goes alright1 point
