Too many snakes!

[SteelSterling]

I'm playing SVN version 5230 and it seems like each turn, my units capture at least 4 snakes. Rarely I get something else. I looked at my ranger and he was surrounded by 14 puff adders! Where's St Patrick when you need him?

Yeah the puff addy's are very prolific! PM map and tropical starting spot probably did not help out either. This game started with SVN 5234.

They say snake tastes like chicken, but my people like Real Chicken, country fried, rolled in flour with golden brown crispiness. Snake just doesn't crisp up as well, you know.

There was an error in the spawn XML so it was not spawning at all and the spawn rate was too high. I have lowered it but that does not get rid of ones already spawned. It may need changing again later but I seem to be getting about as many of them as the other snakes now.

Yeah it looks like it back to normal, but how about lowing the "eagle" also, i see waaay too many of those also, since we do have ALOT of bird units ingame, thx.

snakes...on a plane?

New event, rare, on flying transports.
Either every unit but one dies (promoted heroic), and you have +27 subdued snakes afterwards, or every unit dies & plane crashes & 1 snake survives.

I never see that many. I almost get sufficient for my needs. In my current game I have seen very few birds, but yes usually there are lots.

It was a horror movie wasn't it?

bad things happen.

i'm not saying this should be an event. but most people would recognize it.

I'm not seeing too many eagles, but there has been an increase in Hawks. But I don't think it's a bad increase. Finally getting enough hawks to get the Hawking Bldg.

Now Pigs are very rare especially in the Jungles. And Marsh and swamp terrain is much more prevalent too, but that's another story for another time and place.

Sounds like a NEW holiday for ya?? I wonder if i could do an event for that (Celtic wise)

Perhaps a great prophet with a special ability to remove barb snakes for x turns...
Still have yet to see a jackalope...

i would love it when you do that honouring my B-day

On the map I am playing I have an abundance of Toucans, nowhere near enough hawks, eagles and snakes to be able to build all the buildings.

 

[JosEPh_II]

Toucans, Puff adder snakes, capauchin (sp) monkeys and Jaguars out the wazoo. No bison, no cattle of any kind for along time now. Have not seen a water buffalo in the jungle for some time too. No pigs or warthogs either.

Maybe I need to stop using PM map?

The "snakes" part of the Saint Patrick legend was actually a metaphor for druids (it's actually a pretty brutal account of religious intolerance and christian evangelism). So the event would probably just remove a religion from a city, or spawn a unique named Inquisitor unit.
