Silier Posted June 16, 2019 Report Share Posted June 16, 2019 (edited) Hi, I would like to ask if someone could find some time and create seeding animation? So then current building animation for farms could be replaced with it? Thank you Edited June 16, 2019 by Angen autocorrection 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion.Kanzen Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 if Enrique have some time can handle this. I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 I won't have much time (at least until September or so). However, you can find the starting pose on the blendfile of the unit animations that I posted here. Just need some arm movement and back to original pose On 6/16/2019 at 10:00 AM, Stan` said: It's in the blend files somewhere Unfortunately, we need to reexport them all I thibk because mistakes were made.

(Unless elephants are restricted from seedinh by @Imarok) Yeah i may have an idea thought i have to develop it more (i just wake up) elephants often use their trunk to spread earth in their bodies so that could be the same motion with the trunk making a curve from left to right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Unless elephants are restricted from seedinh by @Imarok) I don't think elephants were ever used for seeding farms... Ploughing might be a thing though. Maybe one of the the guy holding the plow behind the elephant could do the seeding: Spoiler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 An elephant idle with a plough will definitely look weird though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundiata Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Dudes, you can't add farming elephants. If that's already a thing in the game (I should check), then it should be removed along with elephants building by themselves. Elephants with a plough is a thing. Elephants digging the soil with their trunk and planting seeds for their human overlords is really not a thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sphyrth Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 My, did this one open a can of worms. I guess the best solution would be from @Stan`. Something similar to the Cavalryman gathering meat: The rider of the elephant comes down and does the seeding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant that the mauryan elephant which currently builds by putting planks on the ground would look weird if the plough was applied to farms because building is still a static activity (the unit doesn't move) and so the elephant would be idling there while a plough would appear out of nowhere... 7 minutes ago, sphyrth said: My, did this one open a can of worms.

No no, don't apologise, I think I'm rather the one that sounded harsh, lol... Sorry... Plough appearing out of nowhere would be a bit weird indeed. But not necessarily that much weirder than citizen soldiers with spear and shield instantly switching to a pickaxe or siege equipment popping into existence when you unpack them (where did the horse go?). In a crazy ideal world, I think elephants should only be able to help human workers already on site. In the case of farming, assigning an elephant to a field which already has a worker would cause the worker to attach the plough to the elephant and start ploughing. Although that would also just look stupid, considering how small the fields are in relation to the elephants. In addition, if the idea is historical accuracy, then oxen were far more used for ploughing than elephants ever were, including in India. I guess I just freaked out at the thought of giving worker elephants yet another task to perform autonomously. They're smart animals, but not that smart to just send them off to work on farms and construction sites by themselves... It's just one abstraction too far for me. Just now, Stan` said: Would be nice to have a rider on him yes Just now, balduin said: I think that solves the problem. Yeah, that would actually make things look a lot more believable. In that case I would shelve my opposition to worker elephants building. But the rider really shouldn't come down from the elephant. And I still don't think elephants have any business farming.
