Development Forum Glowing Norns    Luzze      7/30/2014 I'm trying to make some Norns glow... as in, make them emit CA 1. I gave them a extra gene, a initial concentration with chemical 214 at 0.25. The script I'm building consists of this so far: ENUM 4 0 0 setv va00 CHEM 214 EMIT 1 va00 NEXT But how do I make the script run at all times without crashing the game? I also read in many tutorials that people generaly dislike giving their creatures genes that involve new/mystery chemicals. I wonder why? Beside the problem that another breed may already use them..   Sanely Insane RisenAngel Manager     7/30/2014 You'll need to create a monitor agent that does nothing except run in the background and make it so that creatures with this chemical in their system start emitting CA 1. For example, here's the agent that makes Metallophagus Grendels able to eat gadgets: *Grendel Manager inst new: simp 1 1 18828 "blnk" 1 0 0 attr 16 tick 10 endm *Grendel Manager Script scrp 1 1 18828 9 enum 4 0 0 *Should this creature be able to eat gadgets? doif chem 120 > 0.5 and ov54 = 0 *If yes, make the creature able to eat gadgets setv ov54 10 endi next endm Yours would look different obviously, but it'll look something like this in the long run. I'd also suggest using a 255 script to prevent the agent from autokilling (255 handles exceptions). As for the second question, I personally don't like using the unknownase chemicals as it can make a genome look sloppy and unofficial, as well as negatively affecting compatibility between breeds. It's one of those things that varies depending on the person, however. ~ The Realm ~ Risen Angel's Creatures Blog   Luzze   7/30/2014 many thanks, I think I know what to do now Edit: It's working perfectly, yey!
