Title: [MOD] (Alpha 5) Giant Land Squids (Meatballs) 1.0
Post by: muffins on August 08, 2014, 10:33:32 AM
Always running out of meat for making fine or lavish meals? Then try hunting giant land-squids! Affectionately called "Meatballs" because of their shape and large amount of harvestable meat, they spend most of their time foraging for edibles, and like our current-day hamsters, can store food for later in specialist pouches around the mouth area.

Details -
320 health
~450 meat
Melee 35
Herds of 1 to 12 animals

This is my first attempt to mod so report any problems you might encounter (it's a VERY simple mod so there shouldn't be any issues).

Licence - Go nuts. Do whatever.

Version 1.0 - Initial release.

Oh
my
god!

the eyes just crowns the entire creature
they look so happy

and like something that would explode into gooey mess

Edit:
Nice source of berries and agaves!
I can imagine they'd be completely coated in slime and saliva after being inside these thingies =P

Here you go, ive added the Meatballs to the Rainforest biome (they felt more at home there with the swampy pools) feel free to edit the biome base def to change where you want them.

Their meat is called "mystery meat" as i couldnt figure out what to call it...and its a uk term for that meat thats been in your freezer for so long you dont remember what it is..mystery meat...

Its leather is called Squidgy leather, its the best I could come up with and it made sense it would be squidgy.

They drop all the same stuff as before and meat is about 2 stacks of 75 i think. This may need buffing if people want it.

Enjoy!

mystery meat in the U.S. (or at least my part of it) means pretty much the same thing, though more frequently used to refer to school lunch meat.

While I've heard that usage, I've also heard/seen it used to mean human meat.... :o

Could always go with Squidgy meat. Which at that point I think the thing is officially dubbed the "Squidgy", but I think that name fits wonderfully.

Now to tame them, replace most of their bodies with cybernetics and ride around the wastes Squidgy-back. When raiders see it rapidly coming toward them, they will come to know true fear.
