Summary
SUMMARY: Content "Adds more cats"
Purpose of change
To reach cat / dog parity.
Describe the solution
Adds several breeds and colorations to the cats in
data/json/monsters/mammal.json
, including:Breeds:
Colorations / variations:
Special:
Adds the new cats and kittens in roughly equal amounts as dogs to the
animalpound.json
andanimalshelter.json
monster groups indata/json/mapgen
.Describe alternatives you've considered
Letting the dogs win?
The mix of breeds, colorations, and physical attributes (chonk) when it comes to each spawning the same kind of kitten is a little nonsensical, I admit (but then so is the game's animal reproduction system in general, what with chicks spawning in fridges), so I placed greater value on having an interesting variety than on any kind of genetic realism.
Testing
Compiled and spawned a few of the new cats and kittens to make sure they work and have correct descriptions.
Spawned some animal shelters and animal pounds, saw a variety of cats.
Additional context
There are no significant differences between these cats; they are primarily to add flavor, and give tileset artists something to draw other than dogs.
Besides, I can't wait to try my Magiclysm "Bag of cats" spell with this one.
