Sanginir Special Tribe

[tardy bridge]

oh my fruit outlines

[glossy minnow]

Oh yeah sorry when I changed the name of Free Spirit I took out the temples. Will fix

[glossy minnow]

...yeah, that too lol

[tardy bridge]

lol, its fine

[glossy minnow]

wait that might just be my sizing issue

I'll fix that as well

[tardy bridge]

a lot of things are out of place in terms of visuals but i can fix them up

[glossy minnow]

Thank you for being willing to learn 🙂

[tardy bridge]

is it just another tribe's names or did you program that yourself?

[tardy bridge]

:D well its my first mod attempt that was actually successful

[steep perch]

The new terrain will look much better. I think green won't clash with the units

[glossy minnow]

I just put in a couple of strings here as placeholders

stuff I thought might fit kinda well for now

[tardy bridge]

alright :D

[tardy bridge]

k

[glossy minnow]

Hopefully the sizing is the same lol

[tardy bridge]

the cities look real nice

the animals dont have an outline tho

also

[steep perch]

It is

[glossy minnow]

Fixed the fruit! (Not commited in github yet)

[tardy bridge]

i noticed the bats attack with the club animation, idk if thats fixable

[tardy bridge]

niceeeeeee :D

i really like how this is turning out

[glossy minnow]

What do you want as animation?

I could do a sword, not sure about a punch

[tardy bridge]

hmmm... what are the options?

[glossy minnow]

I don't know 😂

[tardy bridge]

i think dagger could work, unless something else works better

[glossy minnow]

I could look into it for you

I just have to change the "weapon" in the unit. Since they are numbers I guess it's just trial and error

[tardy bridge]

lol

[steep perch]

The old bat was awful lol

[tardy bridge]

hmmm... so we would also need the custom unit icons too, which i can make cuz it seems easy

AHHHH the vampire is holding a tiny sword 😂 this man is hilarious

[steep perch]

Polymod is working, but I can't get the tribe to load.

[tardy bridge]

keep retrying a few times, thats what i had to do

alright tell me when the updated version is out, and i'll download it

rn the tribe is super cool

[glossy minnow]

I think I zipped it incorrectly, probably just unzip and make sure there isn't a file inside a file

[tardy bridge]

except one of the city houses have a white outline on the top

its the onewith the triangle roof

[tardy bridge]

yea thats what i did

[glossy minnow]

Okay makes sense sorry

I'll try to not do that again 😄

[tardy bridge]

its alright. ngl bats are fun to use

[steep perch]

Bats are awesome

Don't know what's up with the triangle roof house. I'll remove that outline.

[glossy minnow]

I removed the background from your house images using canva ai, that might be what it is as well

[tardy bridge]

they're kinda slow though, which isnt too good for the late game. im wondering if roads should give a movement bonus to bats, similar to polarism

[steep perch]

Also, I think I put animal outline in the sprite folder, but it might need to be renamed game_outline or something.

[tardy bridge]

but i think bats will be more balanced once they have the leech ability so i wont bother you much wthi it

[glossy minnow]

I did that, not sure why it isn't working

[steep perch]

The new sprites don't have white background

[glossy minnow]

Okay must have updated when I wasn't looking :p
I'll fix that as well

[steep perch]

I'm loving it so far. Got some stuff to do, but I definitely want to try it out more later!

[tardy bridge]

:D

[glossy minnow]

Thanks so much guys! I wouldn't have got this far if I was working on a tribe alone 🙂

[tardy bridge]

same (i wouldnt have gotten anywhere but yk what i mean Xb)

[glossy minnow]

Found the outline for the animal it was just too small

[steep perch]

My tribe has withered and died ☠️. So I'm glad this one worked out with y'all. But we definitely need some music! Maybe I can make it today.

[tardy bridge]

:(

is it still in the zip file?

[glossy minnow]

Hopefully I can find some time to help you eventually 😶

[tardy bridge]

cuz it didnt work for me when it was

you have to extract it from the zip file and make sure its not a folder in a folder

[glossy minnow]

I think he was talking about Zombuti

[tardy bridge]

oh shoot

mb

(i misread it, i thought he said that when he tried to load sanginir it wasnt working)

(cuz he said it earlier)

(anyway please ignore my complete lack of brain cells)

[steep perch]

Zombuti is dead. Too difficult to get the coding right. And I just don't have enough free time for it. Just handling sprites makes it so much easier.

[tardy bridge]

we can help you with zombuti once we're done with sanginir

cuz its a really cool idea

also, for the music of sanginir, i know a soundtrack that you could base it off of if you get stumped

[steep perch]

What is it?

[tardy bridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEQvHCEHKH0&ab_channel=PeachesLamb (mostly the starting part)

[glossy minnow]

I mean... it is kinda dead 🙃

[tardy bridge]

i get the joke 😭

[steep perch]

Hasn't become undead yet. That's what we need

[glossy minnow]

Ahh yes gotcha

lol

[steep perch]

I hope I can get it working eventually. Because I have a cool idea for a ghost tribe that possesses other units as well. And a holy crusader tribe.

[tardy bridge]

holy crusader tribe could be cool (maybe if temples got an actual use lol)

[tardy bridge]

is this song ok to base the music off of?

[grand magnet]

The Polaris rework I'm making probably might have provisions for Mamoo Polytaurs

[tardy bridge]

its too late, the save is gone

i started a new save with sanginir

[glossy minnow]

You got the screenshot though 🙂

[tardy bridge]

yeah

[glossy minnow]

To be clear: I'll be working a bit more on the mod today yet. Is there anything specific you would like done?

Or something you are doing so I shouldn't do?

[tardy bridge]

hmmmm. probably get the new terrain in, all the updated sprites, and maybe the vampire can be fixed? (also the vampire stats if possible)

also, instead of "faith" here, maybe "devotion" would be better

[glossy minnow]

Sure! I won't worry about tweaking the sprites file too much then (other than putting all the sprites into there) and that should be good!

[tardy bridge]

k

[glossy minnow]

Actually I am in complete favor of roads tech giving +1 movement to all bats.

[tardy bridge]

:)

yea cuz if you need the exploration early on you can just go for it

[glossy minnow]

Yeah and then you can at least have something that moves more than 1 without roads

still, you have nothing that will move more than two spaces other than knights

but maybe that's just part of the tribe

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tardy bridge]

idk

[tardy bridge]

well, navy

[glossy minnow]

I guess

but if Free Spirit becomes useful knights could be more viable. Especially with all the surprise units you are hopefully getting

[tardy bridge]

yea

[steep perch]

Yes, because we are doing work for no-profit. Copyright is only an issue if you are making money or costing the original creator money. If that makes sense

[tardy bridge]

k

[tardy bridge]

am i pro?

also is it possible to have the bat appear here? cuz the rider isnt meant to be there

[tardy bridge]

wait, one more thing. do you want me to make the unit icon for bats?

[glossy minnow]

yesss

[glossy minnow]

Yes. I can fix that eventually

[tardy bridge]

fun fact: vampires may suck against giants, but bats sure as hell dont

one bat can solo a giant

[glossy minnow]

Ohh no kidding 😄

Funni

"You can't catch me!"

[tardy bridge]

is that a mind bender staff?

[glossy minnow]

lol yep I forgot to change that

[tardy bridge]

lol

i think the sword outline should be a bit bigger since you can hardly see it

im curious to see how the ai plays with sanginir

[glossy minnow]

Sword outline? For what unit?

[tardy bridge]

swordsman

[glossy minnow]

Yeah sure this is all that needs to be changed

(found in the sprites.json)

What if the Vampire has escape?

[tardy bridge]

hmmm

well it already has dash

well, originally it had dash

maybe it could be like a doomux with escape but tankier

and leech ability

so 4 attack, 2 defense, dash, escape, leech, 2 movement

smth likethat

but leech isnt relevant rn

[glossy minnow]

2 movement would be too much if it has escape

[tardy bridge]

true

[glossy minnow]

with roads

[tardy bridge]

attack 40? 300 hp? 30 defense? bro made this the final boss 💀

[glossy minnow]

You have to multiply everything by 10 in the code because that's the way it works 🤷🏻‍♂️
Like a warrior has 20 attack

[cloud horizon]

30 defence is 3 defence

[tardy bridge]

oh

[cloud horizon]

yeah

[tardy bridge]

thats how you get 2.5, you put 25? (for example)

[glossy minnow]

Yes

exactly

[tardy bridge]

got it

wait

should the vampire have a special boat?

or just the juggernaut is fine?

[glossy minnow]

Could have a special boat

I'll think about that later

Or you can come up with some stats or something I don't know

[tardy bridge]

nice 😎 98%

aight i'm leaving rn. i'll be back in like 3 hours

bye bye

[lofty hatch]

You can look at the weapon number for vanilla units

[tardy bridge]

why is there suddenly a bunch of random people in this chat though

wait guys

for the different colours

we need a way to tell which unit is from which tribe

maybe if a part of their robes were their tribe colour?

maybe for the bats, it could be the wings

[tardy bridge]

also, for some reason, the bats have part of the raft sprite on them

they have the raft glow and the raft tint

bat spam is legit btw

maybe bat attack and defense should be lowered to 1.5 or something cuz they're pretty strong

[cloud horizon]

yeah, u have to remove it

i did it in militas

[tardy bridge]

also, i have a question, would it be possible to have cloaks attack units instead of cities?

nvm that was a bad question

itsprobably possible

(but hard)

[cloud horizon]

u need a polyscript yea

[steep perch]

What's left for me to make? Just monuments?

[tardy bridge]

i think so

but also maybe a special vampire boat

idk yet

[steep perch]

ok. Monuments might take a while. I also need to do music.

[tardy bridge]

you can use parts of houses for the monuments if it makes it easier

[steep perch]

Nah, they are unique. For example, Gate of Power is an arch. Grand Bazaar is an open-air market, etc.

[tardy bridge]

fair (but i meant like, use houses to help decorate the monuments, cuz i think hoodrick does it)

[steep perch]

Oh

[tardy bridge]

many of the houses look like they could be a roof of the tower (especially house 5)

idk, just an idea

[steep perch]

New bat

[tardy bridge]

nice

[steep perch]

Bat outline

These aren’t in the GitHub yet @glossy minnow but you can grab them from here.

[glossy minnow]

k. I'll probably start updating everything Monday, I'm kind of busy until then

[tardy bridge]

yea, with easter and all that

understandable

[glossy minnow]

already?

okay

[tardy bridge]

?

[glossy minnow]

Sorry wrong channel lol

[tardy bridge]

lol

[tardy bridge]

since we're making good progress on this mod, i made a post in #1278255292437762112 #1362225960585400450

but one more thing: dont combine sanginir with any tribes lol

also the guy next to the catapult seems big
