whiskeyfur Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 (edited) Just to poke a little fun at folks.. (and yes, I DO play a vulp)... fleas. Essentially, minor blood loss, can be transmitted by air but really only affects anything that has blood. Pets, mice, people... some exceptions though. Usually starts with mice found in the maintenance passages. Cured with a good shower and a flea bath (Flea Shampoo while in shower), Recipes: Cyanide (1) + water (4) = Flea Medicine (5) Flea Medicine (1) + Lye (1) + Water (3) = Flea Shampoo (apply while in shower to get the anti-flea suds going...) Flea Medicine (1) -> Patch form = Flea Gel (Cures and provides immunity for a while, apply to the neck/head) Flea Medicine (1) + Fluorosurfactant (1) -> grenades = BUG BOMBS!

whiskeyfur Posted May 17, 2017 Author Posted May 17, 2017 And for the tators out there... flea medicine + low heat = cyanide. Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/10336-fleas/#findComment-85664 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPTCoffee Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 I think it's funny. Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/10336-fleas/#findComment-85667 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskeyfur Posted May 17, 2017 Author Posted May 17, 2017 Just now, CPTCoffee said: I think it's funny. That was the whole point. I'm already looking at the code on how to implement it and at least the flea medicine (collars?) looks doable.

DeadBySmiley Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 (edited) Dark tendrils of disease spread across the land Twisting clawing Reaching until all of Europe Is in the clutches of Death himself. Women and children, Men and kings alike, a third of the population all become victims to the monster named Plague It waits silently in the dark, and the filth, waiting for you to drop your guard. The beast is hungry. the beast must be fed. It cannot be defeated, It cannot be slain. We live our lives in fear of the demise that waits around the corner. Millions die, more become ill Darkness in the form of disease Death knows no prejudice Plague knows no race only hunger. Will the darkness ever end? Will this curse ever be lifted? Will the slop of our miserable lives ever be washed clean? No one knows but God above. Save us. 1000% fun for whole family Edited May 17, 2017 by DeadBySmiley 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/10336-fleas/#findComment-85669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronarch Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 I think this would actually be pretty neat to implement, but it should definitely affect the pets as well. Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/10336-fleas/#findComment-85671 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking of just that... in it's more complex form, could actually be a way to make a blood born vector become a pseudo airborne one. So fleas by themselves, not a problem.. but combine that with something serious?

A transmission method, yes.. but not something inborne to the disease itself. Kinda like how vampires might pick up diseases by nibbling on the wrong people in certain other games. Implementing this more complex form might be a little tricky... EDIT: HAH! Fun ideas... Cyanide (1) + Lye(1) + water (3) = Flea Shampoo Flea Shampoo + Fluorosurfactant + grenades = BUG BOMBS!

Fleas can effect humans too. RL experience. So make them effect anything with blood lol Anything that makes showering a useful mechanical function in game I'm good with.
