we have a serious lack of bats #304

Open MCLV-pandorabox opened 2 years ago

MCLV-pandorabox commented 2 years ago

Every cave needs bats. I just referred to this cave as my "bat cave" and then it hit me.(no it wasn't a bat, it was an idea) "why no bats?" So many animals but no bats? Harmless ones that scare the excrement out of you, and dangerous ones with red glowing eyes come to mind. :-> And for the ones working on recipes: we could have bat soup ;-)

Harmless bats could probably be implemented with some sounds and particle effects. That would be just audio/visual effect instead of being "real" thing, it could make ux bit more interesting and would be relatively cheap server side.

To some degree one could also make dangerous bats with particles but only way to fight those would be getting out of their way (damage would be based on player position+bat trajectory+some randomness).

That seems really cool. I should try that out.

Also another mod with bat (and a lot of other animals): https://content.minetest.net/packages/Liil/animalworld/ https://github.com/Skandarella/animalworld

Linked that before prob when someone asked for owl, possibly someone around here have tried this one already?

Also https://content.minetest.net/packages/ElCeejo/animalia/ apparently with some custom behavior and additional uses for bats, mentioned also at linked issue.
