Cobra hood (for snakes)

Make shiny things to maybe appear in game. Or just dump all the sprites you've been working on. We might use some of them, or other people might use them.

Cobra hood (for snakes)

Postby CubeJackal » Thu Feb 11, 2016 1:43 am

I got inspired to sprite this in as a hairstyle after playing XCOM 2. It's a neat little hood for snake characters.

Also, here's the entry for sprite_accessories.dm:
Code: Select all
una_hood
      name = "Cobra Hood"
      icon_state = "soghun_hood"
      species_allowed = list("Unathi")

This is neat! What do people think, though? Just a unathi hairstyle? Or an ear-style for all races?

Ear style uses rgb of the skin, hair style uses a different color than the base one... so personally I would opt for hair style for all races, mostly becouse of sexy lamia girl

Unfortunately we have a problem in our code where skin and hair use opposite coloration formats, which is something that should really be fixed. One uses color addition, the other uses color multiplication. One starts grayscale, the other starts black. Hair uses a black 'base' color and adds color in. The skins use grayscale and just multiply color. We should have both start with a black base.

I'm not saying it can't be done, just it's dumb extra work.

I would question which gives a better option for the coloring, like, do you get a better result with the hair, or the skin? greyscale is a lot easier to work with on the making of the sprites than the black too. for getting details and whatnot right.

I tested it on a local server and it seems to work fine as hair with the present colours, so I think that's the right route to go down.

I went ahead and made the pull request for this. I've tested it extensively and it works fine as a hairstyle. I made it unathi-only to start with, but changing that is just a matter of deleting a single line of code, so it should be easy to make it available for everyone if that's what people want.

Done and done. Now, we just need to wait for it to be merged.
