[1.16.4+] Creatures & Critters 1.2.0

[Minnigin]

I love dragonflies, do you like them too? Then I've got a treat for you.. dragonflies for Vintage Story!

They spawn around cooper reeds and lilypads and are frightened easily

You can now get glow worms from breaking the hanging glowworm in caves, 4 per "block", place them and kill them to get dead ones for eating and for pies

You can find cochineals where hyenas are, they can be used to make red dye and of course are edible when raw, no pie this time but maybe I'll make the piles pieable, we'll see

Added hummingbirds to this mod, delete that one if you still have it since it's redundant and will just clash with this one

Added crickets, they chirp and can be eaten raw. Grind them into flour to make bread and pie shells

Added grasshoppers, they also chirp and can be eaten raw. Grind them into flour to make bread and pie shells

Chickens will chase and kill crickets and grasshoppers

I've created a Japanese language file. Please use it if you like.

Noticing a lot of water critters dying randomly, especially when a lot have spawned in an area, I have collected all the dead ones from this area twice before this image for example

hmm there seems to be an issue with the entity water breather behavior, I will remove breathing mechanics from them, it'll be in the next update, if you would like to solve it yourself in the mean time just open game/entities/water in my mod and remove this line from them, { code: "breathe", waterBreather: true }

Really like the extra atmosphere this mod adds. Good work.

Will the meals be compatible with Expanded Foods?

[l33tmaan]

I might add it to my list, but it'd be a low priority.

should be fixed now, I removed the butterfly chase from the sparrows but it seems that the code wants all the ai tasks in there so it's in there now

updates 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3 and 1.1.4

• updated code for config file, it will now update automatically and keep your previous settings, just open it once after you open a game with 1.1.1, big thanks to Taska for providing it
• added tortoises to hot climates, there needs to be a bit of bush to see them
• they can be fed cabbage to make them bury some eggs in a buried tortoise nest, break this nest to get some eggs and some little baby tortoises. These babies are yours and will follow you once placed, or you can slaughter and butcher them but why would you lol
• tortoises bury eggs over longer periods of time then chickens lay their eggs
• added turtle meat and tortoise eggs with all the cooking for them
• adult tortoises drop tortoise shells that can be made into a nice early shield that is much better than the starting shield
• updated Russian translation to previous version, Thanks again YourCreator I'll upload the new one if/when you make it with a hotfix
• added toads, they can be found deep in caves and on the surface in temperate to hot climates, they chirp too and chase bugs to eat
• added sparrows, you can't hurt them due to the available flying ai but in the future they will be attackable, bird singing? Bird singing!
• added roly polies ( pill bugs, potato bugs ) they can be found deep in caves, more cave things to come. Gotta livin them up
• wolves and bears will try to kill kiwis and squirrels
• foxes will now chase bugs ( crickets and grasshoppers for now ) and kill and eat them
• chickens weren't eating the bugs they killed but now they do ( along with all bug hunters ) no more finding dead bugs laying around
• fixed offset tortoise shell shield texture
• added frogs, they swim in water and croak, they're a little derpy but they'll get better no worries
• added frog legs, cut up the dead frog, cook the legs in a fire pit and eat them
• added tigers to jungles, I'd stay away from them, you've been warned lol
• fixed sparrows spawning indoors, I think so anyways lemme know if not and I'll get on it again
• fixed toad server error, was harmless but should be gone
• added Japanese translation up to 1.1.2 thanks to macoto_hino
• added geckos to caves, watch them climb and scurry to avoid you, makes a tasty treat when cooked
• added hamsters to desert edges, they are found with hamster pups, little wee hamster pups
• added female tigers and tiger cubs, they will breed and multiple over long periods of time
• optimized creature spawns around the clock, everything is now set to spawn like vanilla animals or close to it, feedback is encouraged

1.1.9 still crashing server at start

Please inspect changes made in 1.1.4

Most possible issue is server codepage locale and vintage server default language

Updates 1.1.5, 1.1.6, 1.1.7, 1.1.8, 1.1.9 and 1.2.0

• fixed frogs, they will now flee when you try to kill them and will act 99% less derpy
• crawfish now spawn, this is tested and working, they might spawn too much so let me know
• optimized despawns to make it easier on servers, I can increase entity presence for SP games if SP players want
• added elephants to warmer climates, they can be bred with all veggies (except parsnips), grass, fruit mashes and peanuts, they hit like freight trains be careful
• added alpacas to higher altitudes, they can be bred and milked, they eat veggies (not parsnips or bellpeppers)
• added hippos to warm climate waters, watch out for their bite, best to leave them be
• added komodo dragons to very hot climates, their hide can be used to make an upgraded version of leather armor

• corrected a bunch of stuff, spawns, hp amounts, ai tasks

• corrected more things, tweaked more things
• updated Japanese translation to 1.1.9

[Cyraxan]

still not fixed bug with   "ServerLanguage": server crash with not-en language!!!

[Minnigin]

I have no clue what you've been reporting btw

[Инга Рыжова]

I saw hippos and crocodiles for the first time. What a pity that hippos killed crocodiles

This battle was initially lost by the crocodiles.

[pennedgalaxy]

Currently having issues with the Creatures and Critters config, we turn off certain mobs and they disappear for a while only to come back later- despite the setting staying the same in the config when we look. Speaking of critters though is there anyway to turn off mosquito sounds? Because we can't turn the mob themselves off we're trying to find a work around to mobs that our server's players find annoying.
