I get what you are saying, but this would sort of have to be overhauled for every animal then and I think maybe rebalanced for longer and shorter lifespans. And I wanted something like this earlier on but now I don't know if we necessarily need it anymore. Yes other Nichelings would be harder to kill but so are all other things with long lifespans (Not that I would mind a health bar I just think currently it would be more trouble than worth, but maybe that'll change once we have the update and I'm super annyoed by every wanderer living so long ^^ ) 3
Philo Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 @Snowy Owl I don't know yet Will have to figure that out soon. But I think we'll probably need wanderers to live for as long as your tribe members. Rogue Males could have a shorter life span though. @wolfhowlmay That or maybe we can add an adjustable damage modifier in the sandbox settings. So you could receive let's say 5 damage points when you usually would only get 1 damage. That would also be an interesting setting to make the game harder in general. Maybe even with settings for different types of damage? So you could deal hunger deal you 10 damage but only 2 from a cactus for example. 8

I think the adjustable damage one sounds great I would love to be able to make predators hit a lot harder, but not necesarrily have them have a lot of armor 4

niche_beaver Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 If only their was a playground mode where you could have all the genes unlocked and they don’t die unless you like click a button and they die the next two days I just would enjoy that but it’s just me that would probably 1

Philo Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 @Snowy Owl I need to check again, but I think the total would be over 400 days ^^ Not quite done yet with the gene tab 5

ChasingNyx Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 @Philo Does drowning count as envoirnmental damage?forgive me I can't spell
Philo Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 @ChasingNyx Good question, I don't know Do you think it would make sense? Or should it be a separate point?

ChasingNyx Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 @Philo I think it would be interesting as a seperate mechanic but as a simpler option just shoving it in environmental damage would sensehey look I learned how to spell 2
Larawolf Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 @Philo has the release date been narrowed down at all or is it still planned for around first quarter 2019? 1

Oh wow, aiming for February? I was thinking end of March or April. February would be awesome, just as my big semester break begins 1
ArtisticToad Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 @Philo About editing the aging, would pregnancy be longer? I think it would be too op to have 400 day old nichelings and able to have babies everyday. 2
bostonlobstah Posted January 1, 2019 Posted January 1, 2019 February!! Yay! If you got it out on the 17th that would be sooo cool (that’s my birthday )
