So I saved an Avian from the suicide towers....

And she followed me to the bottom of the tower. I didn't know those NPC followed you when you saved them before.




Just wondering now : is there a way to bring her with me to my ship or something ? I though it could be cool to pick up people like that.

 

I agree, it would be cool. But there's not presently a mechanic for that. (Though there's a capture pod mechanic for small grounded creatures under 50% health.) Also, I'm not sure what prompts the Follow mechanic for NPCs yet: there's lots of Avians in suicide towers I could only build walls to keep them from being attacked by bird mobs - no follow sadly.

 

I think the only way to get npcs in your ship are colony deeds. But you could built them a nice little house and maybe place a teleporter nex tot them to visit

 

I though about that. It won't be possible anymore though : she died to a monster when I came back. RIP.

Being able to save people around planets and bring them to the outpost or your ship seems like a really good idea though. Maybe there's already some mods allowing that, no ?

 

I think it'd be cool if you could rescue people like that and deliver them to the outpost. :/

 

Rescue them... bring em to your ship! maybe they ll like your ship and stay! or maybe beam down all the way to your colony! (or the outpost) you could get X ammount of rescues... then bam! mission unlocks! idk, maybe something sweet and cool and flashy

 

devs or modders take note this should be a thing

 

Simple thing first : rescue one guy, get items. Then maybe we can create a mercenary system where you can build a crew or something like that, and put those rescued people in your crew maybe.

 

awesome idea

 

A crew mechanic would be awesome! They'd act almost as "pets" in that they'd follow and fight with you but you could tell them to stay put if you wanted.

 

Capture Pod. Or does that only work on monsters?

 

Or maybe a contract? Say you save someone and they follow you, and you have a contract that you can use on them and have then sign it and then they become a part of your crew or part of your town/city?

 

It could work too.

 

After spawning npcs for a BotW, I noticed they have mechanics for the follow and talk to stay... (Npc types Follower and Followerguard)

 

This technique to get chics is old u_u they will like you for taking them out of the celetial towers for a few days, some might say they love you, but at the end it's always the same excuses "It's not you, it's me" or "Your plumage is kinda goofy"

 

Well, I'm not looking for chicks... I wouldn't mind a nice branded gasbag though

 

Well you won't get one if you talk to them like that. >_> Gasbag, now that's harsh.

 

Shh... how I talk about my other half is secret
>.>

 

Play hard to get AM I RIGHT?! UH? SOMEONE?...okay

 

Hey, our species description calls us gasbags, what do you expect?
