batterfly eggs - not butterfly - Batterfly!

I would love to be able to create and hatch batterflies.
There never seem to be very many,  I would like to see them in all underground locations.

It would be good to be able to create them and then hatch and release them appropriately.

  • Yeah, but then you'd have people making them for their streets, and that would suck.

  • -1 I like the fact that there are some resources/animals that can only be found in Ur.  Batterflies/guano, Sloths/snails, Foxes/fiber, Paper Trees... players must return to Ur for these resources.  It gives us a reason to get out there and explore and travel.  I love our Home Streets and our routes, but I don't want to see our world become completely unused and empty in the process.

  • +1 I think what Jolycan was suggesting that players be able to make batterflies for streets in Ur that are the appropriate ecosystem--all the underground locations that either don't have any batterflies or don't have enough.

    Sloths and foxes both work very differently from batterflies in that they have completely different mechanics--sloths can only be in a specific tree type with a knocker and foxes are only in preserves. Instead, batterflies work more like egg plants.

    While I'm definitely in favor of keeping batterflies as an Ur-only resource (okay, I would actually love one as a pet like my house piglet, even if it gave no guano), it would be nice to be able to contribute to the population and to have more batterflies out there in general.

  • Okay, I understand that.  Definately +1 for raising the general batterfly population in Ur.

    I see no reason not to allow them on home streets, to go with egg trees.

    (Edit: clarified wording)

    Janitch, egg trees can be grown on home streets now. :)

    Like eggplants? I harvest eggplants like any other tree; I've never fed them anything. I feed Sloths to get snails and I feed baterflies to get guanoPlease let's keep at least few things in Ur only - paper trees,sloths, foxes and batterflies

  • That is not the comparison I was making. Egg plants, in Ur proper, only grow in dark places (unless this has been changed without my notice, and I'm not talking about homestreets). Similarly, batterflies are only found in dark places--underground in Ilmenskie, in the caves of Callopee, etc.

    As I stated above, I am NOT arguing for batterflies to be added to homestreets. I am saying that it would be nice if Glitchen could contribute to batterfly populations "in the wild" in Ur by seasoning eggs/hatching/feeding them. That would get more Glitchen out into the streets of Ur, not fewer.

  • Where is Ur proper? so I can look around to see for myself.
