Elementals- what are all these gems?

Post by Crow_T »

Is there a reference around here to what traits these gems represent? I have no idea what my guys are doing right now :shock:

Not perfectly sure what are you talking about, but the elemental trait known to the core game has the same effect as undead, but is meant to be used with units that aren't undead, but some kind of animated rock.

I think what he mean is this:

Code: Select all

#define TRAIT_RUBY
    [trait]
        id=ruby
        male_name= _ "ruby"
        female_name= _ "female^ruby"
        [effect]
            apply_to=attack
            range=melee
            increase_damage=1
        [/effect]
        [effect]
            apply_to=hitpoints
            increase_total=1
        [/effect]
    [/trait]

            apply_to=attack
            range=ranged
            increase_damage=1

        [effect]

        female_name= _ "female^diamond"
        [effect]
            apply_to=hitpoints
            increase_total=4

        [effect]
            apply_to=hitpoints

I believe hovering over the traits also shows what they do.

The elemental type also determines which trait they're most likely to get. So wind elementals are most likely to get diamond which corresponds to quick ect.

EDIT: Or used to, it seems like someone's been playing around with it since I last looked.
