May I ask if creatures will shape environments?
I am thinking of stuff like how a hydrogen sulfide based plant-ish creature if I am not thinking wrong probably would produce sulfur crystals and water as waste products which would make an awesome looking swamp in my opinion
Edit: grammar
yes this is a planned feature.
I canât speak of the specifics regarding things like the generation of sulfur crystals, but things like the values of the dissolved gases and compound cloud percentages in patches are going to be dynamic and affected by species . So global events analogous to the great oxygenation event on earth will be able to be simulated in thrive in the future.
Probably never. Thrive is designed so that species are uniform, so unless each time you went to the editor you became a new species, all the existing members of your species will get the new name.
Will there be a way then to make more phosphate, iron3+, hydrogen sulfide, and whatever the nitrogen is specifically?
Edit: I wrote the wrong iron
If I recall correctly adding a protein/endosymbiont capable of phosphate synthesis is not planned in the future. Iâm pretty sure this decision was made to prevent players from just being stationary and still having enough ammonia and phosphate to reproduce. though i may be mistaken.
Regarding everything youâve brought up. I think that adding in new metabolic chemistry / biochemical pathways in general is of low priority at the moment, the best I can do is link you to this. Take everything you read there with a grain of salt, It may be a bit outdated.
Okay and thank you
And I will look at it
I donât know how accurate this is but regarding phosphate from what I could find about actual living things it seems to only come from rocks being dissolved or breaking down other living things, and if this is the case then there would be a reason for not having phosphate production other then the game maybe being to easy/people being allowed to be lazy
One of the reasons phopshate producing organelle is not included is because on Earth there doesnât seem to exist any bacteria that could produce phosphate. Whereas there are a lot of nitrogen fixing going on on Earth.
Okay and sorry if I am being rude but I thought that could be a reason yes
But thank you for responding tho
That is highly unlikely at this stage of Thrive, the Cell Stage of Spore is more akin to a fish stage.
If I find bugs in the test version where do I report them?
You can report them in the Release Candidate thread.
And how should I post them?
So will the limbs system be like spores and be a drag menu or will you be able to make your own limbs using muscles, bones, etc
It seems it will be a sculpting system where you can make your own limbs
That sounds good i read the wiki page and it was giving me spore vibes The worst kind of vibe
Make a post with descriptions of the problems, and also when / how they happened. Also for best kind of reports also include the game logs (put them on pastebin.com).
how would the player experience an organism that has a 360° vision? Would it be displayed like a 360° picture? Or would the player be able to rotate the visual? (as if he had a neck)
Edit: Necro, ha ha
Also (sorry for hijack) how would a creature with multiple eyes pointing in different direction work?
Yes, thatâs what I meant
