Subdued Animals in C2C discussions

I think there is an over abundance of Iguana's. Then i am alittle concerned about the Eagle also? Infact over 60% of the animals i am fighting against are those two?

I think it might be your location. Because in one regions I encountered tons of elephants while another had tons of Ibex. It seems that when animals spawn they seem to spawn a lot of one type. For instance in another game I encountered tons of Okapi and Badgers. Seems as every game is different (which is good).

The Iguana may still be a bit high but it all depends where on the globe you are. I still need to do some more tweaking .

I have played alot of games lately not too long only to Classical, but right now in every game i have played i have to delete over 99% of the Iguana's and Eagles both.

EDIT: The one(s) we need more of are the Direwolf and the Wolf, because it give more buildings to contend with, ie Dog Kennel, Dog Cage etc.

EDIT EDIT:

Some more animals???

Ick! Those are all brightly colored "magic" animals. Yeah don't use those. If you want more animals I have more animals, believe me. No need to use those.

Oh! You have more animals? What animals? Do you also have prehistoric ones (Megatherium)? I want more!!!

The fish and whale are just the resource ones, I think. I wont be including any more animals until after v19, although I can prepare new ones if they are provided. I don't want to change my FPK unless necessary.

First the guy re-textured them to have colored patterns on them.

And that's fine. I have to get around to making new animals I still have like the Walrus (so it can spawn the resource) and some other ones like Tortoise, Skunk, etc. I also have a Gazelle and Wildebeest that keep messing up. I really want to fix those to use.

Don't forget to add my Guanaco (aka Wild Llama) that I already posted here.

So I went into world builder in mid prehistoric era to see what animals I could see. The following animals I never see anywhere on the map are; Kangaroo, Wallaby, Wallaroo, Koala, Tasmanian Devil, Rhea, Emu, Cassowary and some others. I also find say Caribou at both the North Pole and the South Pole and have not seen any penguins at all.

I get plenty of Rhea and cassowary and some emu in my current. Haven't seen any marsupials recently but did a few games back.

So how come I have say Caribou spawning in the southern hemisphere? Their spawn info says ...

			<iMinLatitude>50</iMinLatitude>
			<iMaxLatitude>90</iMaxLatitude>

While say a Red Kangaroo says ...

			<iMinLatitude>0</iMinLatitude>
			<iMaxLatitude>-45</iMaxLatitude>

Doesn't the negative mean it will only spawn in the southern hemisphere and a positive number means it will spawn in the Northern?

Also there are like way too many badgers on my map.

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

You forgot the most important line for placement. Caribou is

			<bLatitudeAbs>[B][COLOR="Red"]1[/COLOR][/B]</bLatitudeAbs>
			<iMinLatitude>50</iMinLatitude>
			<iMaxLatitude>90</iMaxLatitude>

Which means both north and south. the 1 needs to be 0 if it is only north.

If you have logging enabled check ANewDawn.log to see how many plots he finds for spawning and what the chances are.

@Dancing Hoskuld

Here is a Rockhopper Penguin. Please rename the existing penguin "Emperor Penguin" since that is what it most closely resembles. Thanks!

Oh I see. Do you want me to go in and changes ones I think should be limited to either the Northern or Southern Hemisphere? Or would you like me just to make you a list and have you change them.

Also is there a way to specify between the Eastern and Western Hemisphere?

@Dancing Hoskuld

Here is a Skunk. Perhaps it should have some withdraw chance due to the stink it can produce.

 

[AIAndy]

No, but then is that even a useful split for a random world?

Thanks. No and no. You can report ones if you like. I thought I had done the deer ones but missed the caribou. I a not adding any more animals for v19 but will get them ready for v20. in v20 i will be merging most of those in v19 into core files before adding new.

Good then "we" have something to look forward to, which is much better.

I have seen a lot of Cassowaries and some Penguins in my most recent game but nothing of the others you mentioned (my empire was both in the north and south).

Yes it would. Say we have a random globe. If you split it up into 4 hemispheres then we can have 4 unique spawning zones, NW, NE, SE and SW. Northwest would have animals typically found in the Americas, Northeast would have ones typically found in Eurasia, Southeast would have ones typically found in Africa and Southwest would have ones typically found in Oceania. This way no matter what type of map your on you can still encounter different types of animals. Note that if say an entire hemisphere has no land then that world would not encounter any animals from that region.

And of course not every animal would be limited to 1 quadrant. For instance vultures could appear anywhere, while penguins would only appear in the southern hemisphere.

All of the stuff I am posting is ment for v20. I assumed we are either in or nearing the freeze. Just posting these since its not on the SVN and I have more I need to get done.
