should be a good food source for behemoths thank you

no promises, I did some basic checks for errors in error.log, quick fixes and set version to 4.0

looking foreward to new updates(havent tested in 4.0 so im not sure if it works or not)

@Gogabur, thank you for the clarification. I have satisfied all the conditions but this ai keeps getting to the eggs before me as we are allies, I have beaten him in a race for 2 now but this info is good to know.

@Yiraght, no special command here, amount of eggs is variable, so technically you may use "change_variable = { which = htbd_num_eggs value = 1 }" to get eggs. But there are several other events and requirement to satisfy to incubate it

Hi there, do you have a command to aquire an egg? Was curious.

also note, with some civics one or another edict can be not possible, e.g. fanatic xenophobe or purifiers can't be a friend, etc. But in that case only one is missing

Hi.
There seems to be a problem with my modlist.
I tested the mod alone and had no problems then.

@Techpriest Marold YT, are you playing open beta or vanilla game?

Hi, edict doesn't show up after I researched Dragons Friend & Dragons Fear.

I found an entry in the error log that could be related to this(?)



[19:34:12][trigger_impl.cpp:14543]: script error, has_edict is using an invalid edict key: htbd_dragon_friend. file: events/htbd_events.txt line: 1626

well, I've replaced 'Cloning' with brand new 'Dragon Biology' tech which is available for anyone curious about dragon incubation. Tech becomes available along with the first egg found

right, I recall that, after some new update they exclude ME without civic_machine_assimilator civic from getting Cloning. I've decided that such ME are not interested in any dragon incubation or such, being too busy with own machine things. So it looks like you are not such kind of ME and still has curiosity about dragon stuff ))

@damonyahbol, good question, I didn't realize that cloning is not available to ME. I will look for replacement, thanks. Stupid machines, why don't clone own slaves?

Hey quick question can machine empires get their own dragons and if so how since I can’t research cloning

@Инкви!, возможно починил, если есть возможность проверить через сейв - было бы здорово

@Инкви!, спасибо, проверю

Влетаю в систему с червоточиной дракона и вылетает несколько десятков однотипных сообщений.

Many thanks for keeping this mod working and updated!

@willispower812, done. I was worried if that would cause dragons be caught by snare, but they are not. Hope I didn't miss anything

did a test playthrough, so far its very fun, only one question, would it be possible to make it so that the resulting dragons you make count as space fauna according to the beast master civics?

Very regrettable.

@Kaela Mensha Khaine, нет, мод не меняет базовые события и их результаты. Хотя чисто технически это было бы скорее их дальнейшее развитие, но всегда есть шанс, что разрабы тоже добавят своё развитие этой истории и конфликты будет не просто убрать. Поэтому страюсь ничего не трогать.
No, mod doesn't change basic vanilla events and their outcome. Any such dependency would grow to conflict hard to resolve if these event will be updated or expanded later in vanilla. So I am trying to don't interfere

Наверное у вас спрашивали, но что насчет происхождения - Здесь водятся драконы?
Выращенные в инкубаторе малыши и выращенный малыш-дракон ванильного эфирного дракона будут вырастать?
What about - Here be dragons - origin?
Is it possible for Sky dragon's young dragons to grow in full dragon?

How do I find a Dragon Egg?

I'm not too sure as anything else I've reanimated i've not made it retreat. I'll try test it out but i don't see why the reanimated creature wouldn't return to me after retreating as normal military ship will return to the fleet

@Devildwarf23, I am using just vanilla event for reanimation, so all further behavior is not related with this mod. Can that be just issue with reanimated things in general?

Have come into a possible issue, i reanimated a dragon but i had to force retreat it from fighting a corrupted avatar but the dragon never returned to my fleet

@Nathaniel, after you complete friend and fear projects the next step is 'Dragon Planet' even, without it you just 'don't know' about dragon breeding or eggs. That event is lucky one, yes, sometimes it happens quickly if Wyrm dragon roaming around you space, sometimes it might happen way more late in game as your space scan range is growing and can detect more dragon activity in galaxy

It would be nice if we're able to breed dragon from looting enough of their bodies, like rebuilding using clones or find eggs inside their body, gene shenanigan really. I guess I became a bit too strong by the time I met them and just too unlucky every time lol

Ah thanks man. been loving the mod, its been great seeing all the different dragons appear and cause a bit of havoc

@Devildwarf23, hm, I thought that was mentioned in change notes but it is not. Ether Wyrm can be reanimated, note, there should be body remains after kill.

One guy asked about the reanimating of the dragons. I've been trying but haven't had it work yet. What stage do the dragons need to be at to allow them to be reanimated once killed by a necromancer?

@Ever Universe, that is OK, should be save-compatible
@Nathaviel, that is not so simple, egg can be found if it really exists, that can be discovered in two ways - when you survey planet with egg planted or when egg planet is in range of your full intel - but with some chance. Try to track a Wyrm or Dwarf dragons, only they can lay egg on molten or shattered planets. If it stay for quite a time in system with molten planet and asteroid fields - then it is highly probable there is an egg. So you can scan this system if it is not surveyed yet or keep science ship there to try your chances.

How to find the eggs? I already got Dragon Fear and Dragon friend projects, also explored lots of stars, but I found no eggs.

Will there be bugs if I load this mod onto an existing save?

Кстати у меня есть идея, как насчет добавить тайную операцию с манком дракона или подлогом драконьего яйца? Чтобы спустя некоторое время драконы либо напали на систему жертвы, либо в ней появился дикий выводок молодых особей? Классная же подлянка)

Отлично, спасибо. (Не сразу обратил внимание на то что вы русский, ахахах)

@Евген Мяо, it will now

I don't know if anyone has asked, but will the Reanimator Skill work on these dragons the same way as on vanilla?

how can i spawn a dragon egg instead of waiting :( i cant find the name or id

Hello, dragon may kill starbase completely in some circumstances with quite small chance. It depends on several things - dragon personal trait and health (wounded is more reckless) , starbase inhibitor preventing travel or 'fear' edict is on, dragon age - the young one doesn't kill starbase, the oldest has bigger chance, etc. That was done intentionally long time ago to add some variety in dragon behavior. As for unfairness and pain - there is a lot of it in the game, so that one is just minor addition, dragons are dragons after all

Because early game you can't counterplay the dragons, and losing a starbase due to that is frustrating and unfair.
Not to mention it does that to the AI.
But might have been a bug they just disable starbase. Problem is if they fully kill it (removing it)

Sjru is it not better that they destroy them? i mean why would it leave a small part of the starbase "alive" ?

What’s the ascension perk to grow enhanced dragons?

Dragons are fully killing starbases!! please fix

@Gogabor Thank you very much for your help, I didn't see this description before, I will try it in the game now! Thanks again

@叶小羊, check 'IMPORTANT' section above, In short - all collected eggs are considered as 'hibernated' until you decide to hatch it. For that you need molten or shattered planet in your border. Click it and go to decision button. There will be decision available to grow egg. Note, it can be missed or disabled if planet has another egg planted already or if you didn't get all needed technologies. There are couple you need to discover - Cloning and Deep Core Mining if I remember correctly

@Gogabor May I ask a question? After I triggered the event to obtain the dragon egg in the game, I dispatched a science ship for exploration. The event informed me that the dragon egg was placed on my capital planet, but I don't know how to hatch it. Do I need corresponding technology or something else?

@Parciwel, updated, please check

the loaclisation for other languages doesn't work. You have to change the l_english at the top to l_[language] , for example l_german so that the game accepts it. Just changing the file names isn't enough.
