RELEASED Avali Race Mod, The second thread!

So just curiously, how do I use the tubes to grow food? Or are they just decore right now?

 

I see. I haven't played since when beta first released, and I didn't encounter it with anything else until then so.

 

@Vegetable Lamb, Till the tubes like you would soil....

 

Really nice mod. I am wondering if the armor inserts are final, or if your planing on replacing them with actual armor? (Like maybe the armor you craft in the nanolathe.) I also have a minor complaint that the Avali guns don't quite match the other items. The are very minimalistic black and gray well most of the other items have that orange holographic feel well also being somewhat artistic and fancy.

 

The armor in the nanolathe used to be the crafted armor, but considering the way the avali armor is done to account for their unique body shape, the inserts were chosen to instead be the replacement during this stage of Beta, as Chucklefish is looking to change the tier progression we currently work with.

 

The guns and weapon upgrade system are being completely replaced in the near future, so they'll fiti n much better (And be far more satisfying ). I may eventually re-implement proper armour if I ever get together enough armour sets, though as you might understand, making additional sets of from-scratch armour is a lengthy process and thus low priority at this moment.

 

So I don't need to put soil in first. Good to know. *looks at giant pile of dirt*.

 

Heh no, if they needed dirt they'd be geoponic

you just use the Hoe on them. they work just like dirt

 

so on my planet I had built a tent with the older version of the mod and now that I have a newer version I can' go threw...
Edit: FIXED IT just had to place multi doors where a "invisible" wall was

 

Break the old tent door, then place blocks where it used to be.

 

yea I figured that out by randomly placing multiple doors down in rage

 

Your rage fixed shit.
That's...I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. Maybe both?

 

I think it's good like I raged on dragon age origins and I killed a ogre with out realizing it

 

Nothing works better than a little Percussive Therapy.

 

I wondered how that worked.. Not sure why I didn't think to use a hoe on it.

A question came up in discussion on Avali. Within a pack, is it customary for there to be an alpha? That is to say, does one particular packmate speak for the pack when they interact with other packs or people?

I wouldn't think it necessary, especially in Avali-Avali interactions because of the Avali's auditory abilities and the hive-like characteristic of Avali (at least where the pack is concerned), and yet at the same time, it is plausible one of the Avali may drift into that role naturally, especially when speaking with other races, who have this odd way of thinking of each other as individuals.

My conclusion was that pack composition may vary from pack to pack, and role assignment could be handled differently in each case. So too might the decision-making process, such as whether or not to accept a proposal (although I suspect that that kind of thing is usually handled by general consensus, and by vote if need be).


A second question I had. Who names a newly created Avali pack?

 

Definitely digging the new update, so much new stuff to do

 

Seeing as you need those chits to craft upgraded weapons, I see it as a feature. =p
