SheppardZ Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Hey guys, I'm wanting to make a character mod for DT and I'm trying to come up with something original but it doesn't seem to be happening. If anyone has some interesting character ideas or suggestions they are willing to share, I'm all ears! Cheers.

PanAzej Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) A Rock Lobster-esque character. Kinda like Webber, but he's a lobster instead of spider. 300 Health, 100 Sanity, 120 Hunger. Perks: * Is thickheaded (Can't learn new recipes; Has 20% damage protection) * Has a portable Science machine/Alchemy engine (self-explanatory) * Eats only minerals (rocks and etc.) Starting inventory: - 4x Flint (either a snack or get a twig to make a tool); - 1x Science machine/Alchemy engine. Hidden Perks: * Has 1 hp regen per 5 seconds. There ya go.

I appreciate the idea but I'm a little worried about the aesthetics when it comes to a rock lobster, that is of course the number one priority, imo .

NyctoDarkMatter Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I think a Rock Lobster character would be really neat! Aesthetics may be a bit hard, but you could make him a human/rock-lobster hybrid, similarly to Webber who is a boy trapped in a Spider's body. I think you should go for this. We could call him Wobster or Whelk or something. Maybe Wustacean if you really wanna get crazy. xD Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/63565-looking-for-character-ideassuggestions/#findComment-715906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NyctoDarkMatter Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Oh, and to add; he should be able to CREATE Science Machines and Alchemy Engines. He should be able to create stuff. He just can't REMEMBER it, as in, Prototyping. He can only Prototype and will never permanently remember anything but basic recipes.

Mobbstar Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 4 hours ago, NyctoDarkMatter said: He just can't REMEMBER it, as in, Prototyping. Sounds simple enough. After the game as initialised and if the character is being played, one just ought to go through every recipe and toggle the "nounlock" (save for the ancient recipes, which already use this). This might even work for DST clients the same way, I am not sure.

Yeah, I whipped up a sketch for ye: You could also add a fancy sound when he moves or something (similar to lobsters but less loud, look at WX's prefab if you're not sure how it's done). Quote He should be able to create stuff. He just can't REMEMBER it, as in, Prototyping. Yeah, that's basically what I meant.

SheppardZ Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 That does actually look a lot better than what I originally envisioned, you made a rock lobster cute, good job . I have been inspired else where though, sorry @NyctoDarkMatter, I appreciate the enthusiasm though .

(when I edit the hair it won't auto compile and get updated) I take it, you are using DleoWolf's Extended Character Template? First of all, make sure the autocompiler opens to begin with. A command promt window (the black one with grey text) should appear briefly when launching the game or double-clicking the compiler itself.

Yes I am using that DleoWolf template Step1: double click auto compiler Step2: black chat box thing opens up with bunch of white texts appear and then disappears Step3: Launch DST Step4: black chat box thing opens up with bunch of white texts appear and then disappears. Game is launched and I can play my character. The changes I made is still not being auto compiled Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/63565-looking-for-character-ideassuggestions/#findComment-718483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
