New Creatures/ Suggestions for the future

[Endrix]

I published a new version. The main changes are:

- rigid creatures have no jobs now (makes no sense, but it's actually just symbolic since they're mostly intended as enemies)
- all creatures have a good StatusOffset
- roach is now also in fxdata
- adds a new one Rigid creature: Fire Giantworm

edit: - I reload version 1.01 with handysymbol from Fire Giantworm

[Endrix]

I published a new version 1.02. The main changes are:

- weakens ghosts, lightning monsters, soulflames, boxes and many element monsters
- Dark Knight Lair is defined


The next version will include some new shots and spells.

I published a new version 1.03. The main changes are:

- weakens ghosts, lightning monsters, soulflames, boxes and many element monsters again

- The untrainable creatures now require more experience to level up in combat

- The untrainable creatures now get some stronger shots/spells later (level 5 and level 10) - except boss creatures

- new shot: HOLY_CROSS for Gravestone

- new shot: HOLY_STAKE for Tendril, Tendril rigid, Mushroom Monster, Fern Monster

- new shot: HOLY_ICICLE for Ice ball, Ice monster, Snow monster, Icicle, Water Ghost

- new shot: BLIZZARD for Ice ball, Ice monster, Snow monster, Icicle, Water Ghost

- I added “Chicken” and “Time Bomb” to “Creatures and Magic” in a somewhat toned-down manner

- a new symbol sprite for timebomb

- I always saw timebomb with this animation as an Elite Ice AND/OR Elite lightning attack

-> Now I have something different timebomb with Blizzard with less damage but with freeze, now as an elite ice attack

I would love to make a creature, but too complex for me.

but I envision a Gargoyle,

Powers=SWING_WEAPON_FIST HEAL REBOUND ARMOUR INVISIBILITY TELEPORT SIGHT NULL NULL WORD_OF_POWER

Properties=BLEEDS UNAFFECTED_BY_WIND IMMUNE_TO_GAS PISS_ON_DEAD FLYING EVIL IMMUNE_TO_DISEASE

; Gaining experience from sleeping - slab required near dungeon heart and amount of experience
SleepExperience=HEART_PEDESTAL 500

Attracted by: guard post
Jobs: Train / guard

very high strength/armour/health
Very slow speed

Basically A hard hitting slow tank, with no ranged attack

If i ever figure out how to make the sprite I will make it

I made some traps with stone statues and call them gargoyles and they need big eggs to activate:

- Since timebomb now works correctly I added a new attack and called it elite lightning ball.

I have left out some custom creatures with my interpretations, I may publish them later at some point.

Tree Rigid

I'd love to know more about what goes into making these custom creatures - as for suggestions, I think a Mummy, Beholder or Minotaur would be a great idea.

There is already a Minotaur, here:

Oh I see, that is very cool. I will try figure out how to put it in my game.
