[Description/Credits coming soon(ish)]

I overdo descriptions. I've been meaning to upload this for awhile. I made my own template and had everything about ready to go a month ago and lost it all/ lost desire. But I need to upload this before I go away (forever...?) where I won't have my laptop to do so.

0.14 changes:
When you kill an antelope/gazelle there will now be a carcass that you can attack- killing it will net you a sinew, bones, and meat (large) You can also craft a carcass with sinew bones and meat (large) using craft. Carcasses attract carrion-loving vultures (*new in ver) which will fly down to feast on it. The vultures can be attacked or tamed when they're feasting. If the vultures eat all of the carcass it will not drop the items. Taming a vulture is the same as with a wolf (use bone or meat on it) but beware- if multiple vultures are feasting they'll turn on the newly tamed vulture.



Vulture pets are loyal only to meat- you can only tame one at a time- but they do not die when your survivor dies and they can be retamed by other people (they are also subject to crowd around dead carcasses). You can not revive a dead vulture pet but you may tame another one if your previous pet has died (in theory- I just realized I haven't tested that). Vulture pets have a few abilities which make them excellent scouts: Fly (can only attack and be attacked by other vultures and long range weapons and can move across obstacles) Eat meat/sinew/bones/etc. (heals 100%) Pick up item (can only pick up one non-iron/steel item at a time- but reduces attack rate and movement speed) Screech (pings map for all players) Shadowmeld (night only) Truesight



This will probably be the last update for awhile- I know I really need to buff the wolves and add another hostile unit (likely cheetah) but I'm moving out of my apartment tomorrow and will be homeless/in mexico/ wherever until I can settle in my new place across the country (in... Jan?) so... see ya

1. Parts of the map seem unfinished like the northern desert beyond the gate and cliffs and the volcanic region. 2. Seems random. I don't know if the items are created in different places every game but the map is quite dependable on luck or at least...

3. Couldn't find tinder and a Javelina killed me; it spawned somewhere near the eastern fountain where I was and I didn't have the strength to beat it.
