Blodoks Report post Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) Who saw the movie "There will be blood"? The first scene show a miner at work with pickaxe (hard) and then with dynamite (easy). Soon we'll have mules, I don't know how a mule will works, but if we'll have more availables emu to fill where we are harvesting so I thought small landmines could be useful. How? When a radon pouch event will hit a player if this player will have a small landmine in the inventory he will lose the landmine and on the ground it will appear a bag with a random quantity of the ore/mineral that the player was harvesting. The small landmine formula could be changed a little so a random quantity of ore/mineral could be worth the price... I'm thinking to 400-1000 emu of ore/minerals thanks to the explosion If the formula don't need a change, maybe could be interesting to add a new rare stone to the event landmine-radon pouch: the moonstone. The moonstone could have a good chance to be found (5%) so to have a rare stone fairly cheap to make some new item of low/medium level. The moonstone image already exist in the EL's files : Moonstone Edited March 11, 2008 by Blodoks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruella Report post Posted March 11, 2008 If a landmine goes off in someones inventory, I would expect the player to go into 400-1000 pieces of bloody flesh thanks to the explosion, rather than equal amount of ore However, since it is a fantasy game, and my rationality is low anyway, I give these 2 ideas thumbs up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Christo Report post Posted March 11, 2008 Interesting idea ... if it could be done then it would be awsome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cycloonx Report post Posted March 12, 2008 Sounds like a good idea, although it needs more balancing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted March 12, 2008 You know, the radeon is radioactive, wouldn't cause an explosion or anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khalai Report post Posted March 12, 2008 You know, the radeon is radioactive, wouldn't cause an explosion or anything. I hope you meant radon, not radeon, otherwise, half of players have radioactive GPUs Anyway, if the moonstone is also radioactive, then adding radon can exceed critical mass and cause a nuclear chain reaction. However, that would cause explosion big enought to level whole map Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blodoks Report post Posted March 12, 2008 You can always introduce a new random event when we harvest with the pickaxe: sparks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
