  1. @bostonlobstah

    Fishing with two nichelings gives me about 1.2 of these per day and two points from the stinky tree. There are three more I send nichelings out to, so that's 5+6, without roots.

    Not much, but enough to support 5-7 nichelings. I suppose just going for stinky fruits might work with wings. Islands seem like a good base, though, provided they have a nest and apes spawn elsewhere

    I'll evolve them for beak+ big ears+ fishing tail+ wings. A few claws strawn in to have fishers. That might work without armored body if you can survive long enough.

    Or maybe that Rainforest has quite a lot of berry bushes. I don't know. If it has swamp bugs, going for fishing tail is useless.

  2. Attracted smelling ape in killer jungle

    Attracted hearing ape

    Both attack when in water

    When she crossed the stream to the hearing ape, the smelling ape went after the much farther away starting male.

    Had both cross the stream. Smelling ape left

    This time the male is still in the water

    Hearing ape left, smelling ape came back asap.

    It seems that they cannot cross rivers within the jungle biome. Not sure about the grassland.

    Apes can cross rivers, I found it from experience one side of the island had a river going through it with no trees, 2 apes ended up crossing it.

    No trees? Did they invade the grassland part? I'll have to run a few tests in the thicker jungles. It's weird that they stopped their pursuit when I did, but maybe it's just distance related.

    I think you might have caused most of the bugs due to your console use but going to whale island sounds good. Or going left and then right sometimes fixes the island loop. About the long winter I don't know, probably no fix there but 99% sure that it has to do with the console use.

    I once messed with berry bush spawnrates and the deadly hills were nearly empty. Some island might really just react in ways others don't. Hadn't thought of that, thanks.

  5. Mostly agreeing with the other lists. Many islands are easy with a certain gene or skill. Burning hell = armored body (+ big ears). The harder frozen biomes with winged digging trunks and the like. Cracking on home island, balanced water/land in the Oasis, Stinky tail in any swamp. But the deeper jungles are always a mess for me, no matter what direction

    -- who are you? Vs. The seeing apes targeting the wrong distraction. 

    -- speed vs. strenght.

    -- small tribe sizes = lack of specialisation. Big tribes = lack of transparency

    In addition to all the foliage or lack thereof, it's the hardest in my book, assuming nichelings have all the genes they need.

    If they don't have the right genes and the amount of time to achieve specialisation isn't counted... I'd rate the coldest islands the most hard. With only digging paw and no great cold genes, survival is shortlived. The easier ones should work, though. In the hot climate, going extinct isn't that big a threat. The worst case scenario has been losing immunity genes by expense of a small tribe, but I haven't managed full blown extinction. Within the jungle, just not caring is a long-lived strategy. These two need to survive, the rest can get eaten. Find some foodsource and outbreed danger, survive in a really messy and harsh way... extinction won't really come, even if the genepool is awful. The deadly hills aren't too dangerous, either, as killer bearyenas have awful senses. As long as there is any stable food source, I'm good, but the harder cold islands are a fast game over. Starting there only really ever goes well with decent luck and certain genes.

    What if you have double crab claws and Bearyena Hindlegs or Webbed Hindlegs, with nothing else adding movement? Then you won't be able to move at all on land!

    Then you have found another method to torture rogue males. And reincarnate Bob...

    I went to Home Island as an experiment, and here's what I found:

     - ALL the females had chestnut brown fur + random color, and black pattern + random color. ALL the males were pure chestnut brown/black. Weird. 

    Were they always that shade of brown? I don't spend much time there, but they just seem different. The peacock tailed guy also had recessive violett eyes.

    Did the males all have fluffy tail? I'm not sure if messing with the spawn rate command gave me weird animals (on the first save Adam's family respawned mostly with webbed paw) or if it was changed. Some better genes are always nice.

  9. I once had a nest free island -- except for one, exactly in the middle. Niche gets weird at times. I'd love if they would fix the first island in story mode, aswell. Nothing worse than not finding a permanent nest and leaving only one incompatible immunity heir, if any.

    this is depressing

    There'll be a new boom on Crossing, though. The older nichelings will be lost, even if it is tragic, it's somewhat easier than seeing the young die. I tend to despair at Jessimew's food tactics, releasing nichelings is less hurtful than letting them starve.
