Bomy pet interactivity

Admins · #1 05-03-2001, 07:00 AM

The new bomy pet stuff is mainly for
making them more fun than before when they
were just soccer balls with different look.
I can imagine some nice things like
trivia: bring me my bomy - you have to
say a special password to the bomy, then he
follows you; you could also add a 'give me a tip'
command
May be 'list commands' should only work for
your own bomy? Then the other players
couldn't see the 'password'

Feeding is not for annoying happy
bomy pet owners. You will not need to
give it many apples.
There are bomys on the server which haven't
seen the owner for more than a week, because
they don't play Graal anymore or do other things.
So those bomys could go 'wild' again. If you
are on vacation you could let other people
feed it, you can also let other people control
your bomy with 'add owner <accountname>'

Of course baking is planned, but we need the
weath thing first. I think its a good idea to
have bred which refills your power, of course
it wouldn't work in spars, but it can help when
you are low on power and doesn't want to
risk your gralats (I can raise the gralats lost
when dying then again). I think people will
even pay gralats for getting such bred.

I don't think baking should just be about refilling health.

omni-m00gle · #6 05-03-2001, 07:04 AM

Why not manually remove the bomies then? I really dont want to lose mine because I got bored of it and am waiting for new commands

sniperjoe10 · #7 05-03-2001, 07:04 AM

Looks good, Knorr.

ReBBisH · #8 05-03-2001, 07:13 AM

Stefan..Make it so we can feed our bomys fish as well...

Cloud_X · #9 05-03-2001, 07:16 AM

arg i still hate that type of feeding....Vaction/social life. Not to many people on graal are trust worthy >.<
and even less are willing to help for free >.<

psihunter · #10 05-03-2001, 07:19 AM

I think bomys shouldnt respond if they havent been feed(i.e. you cant add any commands, or it will not talk either)
if a bomy hasnt seen the owner for like a week it gets restless and leaves the owner

Cloud_X · #11 05-03-2001, 07:23 AM

Hehehe thats basically my idea except with this:
Bomy's that arent feed run away. A run away bomy cannot be called nor will anwser any commands. If the owner doesnt feed it for a long time (possibly 4 days instead of 2) it will run when it sees the owner/. thus having to sneak up on it and feed it till it trusts you again. Then maybe if the owner doesnt log on for 1-2 weeks it goes to the first "other owner"

psihunter · #12 05-03-2001, 07:26 AM

Cloud i think i came up with that idea, you just edited it =/

Congratulations on discovering your 3l337 p0w3r5.

Cloud_X · #17 05-03-2001, 07:39 AM

hahaha ghost we had the same idea =]

Valder · #18 05-03-2001, 08:36 AM

hmmm, that may be bad though....but i like the idea...it'll let ppl have it if noone takes care of it, and some people can't affor to keep more than 2 with this too, so it's a good idea...but IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO EAT FISH TOO!!

ReBBisH · #19 05-03-2001, 08:53 AM

EAT MORE FISH

Valder · #20 05-03-2001, 08:56 AM

it should be able to eat fish and apples.....and maybe have babies

IceHawk · #21 05-03-2001, 08:58 AM

My powers are leetar!

Valder · #22 05-03-2001, 09:01 AM

NO!, MINE ARE!!!

BOMY'S SHOULD GET TO HAVE BABIES!!!*!

Zulithe · #23 05-03-2001, 09:41 AM

If they would just eat fish, that would be very easy to feed them ^_^

How much do they currently need to eat in order to survive? (or will they never die?)

freddyfox · #24 05-03-2001, 09:42 AM

They never "die", persay. They just will run away and become wild if you stop feeding them.

Tyhm · #25 05-03-2001, 09:44 AM

Didn't we go over this already?
Since Bomys are like different-shaped people, Bomy pets are just like People pets (or Zorbi pets). Or slaves.
If you can order your Bomy pet to mate, you should be able to order your Zorbi pet to mate too!

Okay... see I don't own a bomy so I wouldn't know O.o

What happens when they are wild? They are able to be auctioned off again? And how much do they need to eat per day?

You are right Tyhm, but maybe Bomys don't look upon slavery as wrong. Maybe in their society it is okay for the less intelligent ones to be sold into slavery (thus the fact that they are mindless and only obey orders and never do anything on their own, like a player bomy would)

Nai · #28 05-03-2001, 09:53 AM

Add this:

"playersays You not eat anything and you not leave me! -> dont leave owner, dont eat"

Okay... is that supposed to be something funny or... cause it kinda is but...

Valder · #30 05-03-2001, 10:22 AM

nah, i like the feeding idea, it makes more people prone to owning a bomy

Zulithe · #31 05-03-2001, 10:26 AM

It does? It just gives you one more thing on your list that you need to do O.o

Houses need rent... pets need food... realistic yes but all of this is starting to pile up very fast

Sell your bomy/house/stop farming if it becomes too hectic. I have none of those things and I'm doing fine.

Valder · #33 05-03-2001, 10:27 AM

it would give pl a job to make money though
make a graal delivery service where we have to deliver apples and/or fish to feed bomy's in the house

IceHawk · #34 05-03-2001, 10:29 AM

I just use TrueHeaT's house for things.

I'll have my own room in Dustari castle soon, so I won't need to pay any rent ^_^ Then I can keep a horse there and stuff

GraalWarrior2k1 · #36 05-03-2001, 10:31 AM

Valder · #37 05-03-2001, 10:31 AM
