  1. I'll be posting "hatelings" next week-ish. I'm sorry for the late schedule, but there's too much extra schoolwork at the moment. (Though I doubt anyone cares for one playthrough more or less, it's not gone yet)

    About the island. Grass mingle/adventure was surviveable in a short mock up. Other types might fit more, even if they're easier/harder. Home Island is very beautiful, but difficult without nuts and berries. The deadly hills would propably be the easiest, as one tribe rolled strenght genes and the other has armored body.

  2. Test three: females in a close group

    They're after the two nicheling formation in no time. This has no effect. Natutally, they stay away once the rogue spawn is born. Is this effective in conserving food?

    This guy went after blue eyes and ran away. That seems to be standard behaviour, despite approaching them mutliple times, tile to tile. 

    Conclusion: if you're out of males, keep three females close. Close enough is a maximum of one tile, otherwise the population density isn't high enough to ward them off.

  3. 5 rogues alive. Again, a calm after the mating frenzy. That's some rather odd behaviour. Maybe the increased population density wards them off by accident. Either way, as long as the rogue children stay close to her, it's not too interested.

  4. Test 2: distasteful and normal females

    - the rogue is still repelled after adding medium body with the console. Bug?

    When a new rogue males spawns, he is not repelled by a nicheling with former spiky body

    Red guy now refuses to mate with any female. Asexual representation? Hm...

    Rogue 2 now refuses to mate with any females.

    Rogue 3 hits

    Rogue 2 breads again with 3 females. 

    Rogue 1 hangs out with his wife and kid. They're married now.

    20190314_172009.thumb.jpg.b1a82b9277df87a08dd02bfb407a6eed.jpg

    Rogue 2 mates again with three former spiky, some odd days later

    Or not? Normal snout is his fav.

    So is webbed paw, who was only approached before by rogue 3. Despite having 3 potential females, he ignored the others.

    20190314_172422.thumb.jpg.9cba71dc2b5377dbba4a45dc2dbc970d.jpg

    Conclusions:

    1. The spiky body removal bug may tame a rogue fully. Spiky body is always avoided.

    2. Rogues avoid mating again after the child is born for a little while. At least if they're born with 1 gem.

    3. If multiple rogues are around, they're a lot more aggressive about mating.

    4. Being in a nest may or may not make a female more attractive. On a different note, a favourite target may exist if only one or two rogues are around.

  5. Round 2: Rogue males and spiky body.  3 spiky, three spiky derpsnouts, one normal. 

    (Summary of three tests:

    - there's a spiky body console bug

    - high enough population density to ward off = three nichelings with max. one tile between them. They will then breed with one and leave the others alone

    - rogues are a lot more aggressive in high numbers)

    The first suspect:

    20190314_170046.thumb.jpg.a592731f959cb8da1b1c18ce6868344b.jpg

    - Approached D/S (derpsnout, spiky) and turned away.

    - Tries to mate with normal nicheling (who was also nearest)

    When removed, went to spiky

    20190314_170341.thumb.jpg.99f4883e729f8aa14f03a4ee5d14a5e4.jpg

    - did nothing for one turn

    - ran away

    Weird invasion by pawless normal snout

    20190314_170509.thumb.jpg.88c06d7ca8aa5db1f55fb259f442b1dc.jpg

    I'll need more rogues

    -- rogues refure DS females

    -- changing snout gene has no effect

    -- neither does mating with the rogue

  6. To continue Nichebusters by Skysplash?, this section serves for future experiments.

    1. If you set up a male's mutation menu and release him, will breading grant you any mutations?

    Also, I clicked on the wrong setting. Meet Vandon, Vandon and Vandon, Dukdondon ans the only compatible Sirasi. Of course, her genes are awful.

    20190314_160057.thumb.jpg.ec728546a0ee8605d89a2dda1a623747.jpg

    First batch pre-release. They have 2 mutations on average, digging paw + stinky tail.

    Nothing on those 3 from dad.

    Mama bat got lucky. Nr. 4 mutated digging paw.

    20190314_161128.thumb.jpg.17d78452845adc21e431f23a54f39127.jpg

    Love at first sight? Maybe she was chased by rogues.

    20190314_161154.thumb.jpg.8b80019e1f112d2c03cbf292a21e9c24.jpg

    One more digging paw

    20190314_161238.thumb.jpg.00c0b9667cb6a787c79b1c6de694991d.jpg

    2 more. So setting a male up before banishment is useful and distribution seemingly about usual.

  7.

    To give my pantheon more live, I added spirits and minor gods. Dawnbringer is one of them, a goddess of beauty and light. Their island is doused in eternal darkness, but every once in a while, the sun rises.

    Bird beak and brown eyes? This may be an unpopular choice, but I don't get many nichelings with either. But her velvet red gown is beautiful, as are the rare markings around her eyes.

    In her first live, she was Snowgust, a too little bird from the mountains. Just as the iceblocks melted, she was swept away in icy talons. Are her markings scarrs from that encounter? 201903145613919782683967721.thumb.jpg.587ea057ee441ab42c2070b86bb11854.jpg

    Scourge is the male candidate. Born to a challenge tribe, they had to abide by the genes the gods provided. In the jungle... predictably, they all died. 

    Still, he protects those who wander those shorelines alone. The spirit's only enemy are defender bears, for their shallow understanding of conflict. The apes he can forgive, but those slothful "counter bullys" know nothing of survival.

  8. Maplebush and Ratberry. This now is the new moniker my Mapleshade has been cursed with from the grave, by his dear beloved younger sister, Nightshade -- err, Ratberry. 

    No, but really, I love the generator. Having some unusual names is a lot more fun than the same variations over and over again. With bug-free console commands, giving them the traits should be extra easy and guarantee more diversity.
