Chao Garden

[TheABELBOTO]

Actually, now that I think of it, there would need to be a way to collect currency.
I propose this.

As players perform certain tasks, achievements are unlocked. For example, "hatch a egg carefully", and "hatch an egg by throwing it". As these achievements are unlocked, the player earns a boost to what we shall call "RPM". "Rings per Minute". Players will, for every minute they are on the server, obtain an amount of rings equal to the cumulative worth of their achievements.

So, if a player were to hatch one of their starting eggs by cradling it, and the other by throwing it, then they would start off with two achievements right off the bat, maybe even more, for things like "Hatch a Chao with angry eyes", "Hatch a Chao with a wiggly mouth", "Hatch a Chao with a perfect S in speed", etc.
Save that stuff to the server. Every time the chao gains an increase in speed, update its walking speed.

well, i thought simply picking up rings would be better, but then fruit grabbing and achievments sound better, but rpm sounds lazy-ish, but, then, can they die, and , what else can they do?

Well, RPM would be fairly unreliable. You would have to sell some of the stuff you find if you want to make a significant amount. A player who has lots of achievements probably wouldn't even need to sell random fruit.

ok, what else?

[Peejster]

Uh, only other things I can think of that would have any significance would be "toys". There would be toys available for purchase, and the toys that you earn. A purchased toy (and some rewards like the horse and TV) would be usable by any chao that knows how to use it, while the others would be used only by Chao that earned it in a relevant race or in Karate.

If you want me to, I could model the trees, fruit, Chao, and various rewards.

Also, Hero and Dark gardens should have a small effect on the alignment of any Chao put inside. Chao who are put in a garden that is the opposite of their alignment, like a Dark Chao in the Hero Garden, should become upset over time.

i'll make models, you can do the scripting, but the cool thing is, that this is starting a new type of servers:
chao gardens

uh
I was actually thinking it was going to be the reverse
heh.

[TheABELBOTO]

wait, i noticed that as their stats increase, they grow new "parts" like horns, but i was thinking, it should be like this:
1.you color them when they're eggs, AND THEY WILL STAY AS THAT COLOR
2.they all look like a neutral chao, other than the color, that is, if you colored them(default colour is blue)
3.depending on their stats, they can become any of the evolved forms, depending in stats

BUT, how can you make them hero/dark?
and, how can you set their stats so they can be either a pure type: aka, they're a flying type, not a speed/flying, or mixed ,aka, a fly/speed?

[Peejster]

1.you color them when they're eggs, AND THEY WILL STAY AS THAT COLOR

That already happens with every egg color except the default. This would also make it a bit harder to figure out whether a Chao favors the hero or dark side.

3.depending on their stats, they can become any of the evolved forms, depending in stats

A chao will simply evolve based on what it has the greatest progress towards, and what was most recently given to it.

Players should probably be able to have some way to become either a hero or not.
Maybe a player who pets other players' chao would become a hero, while a player who abuses other players' chao would become a dark character. In order to make sure this can't be abused, a Chao's happiness should not be raised or lowered by anybody except its owner.

ok!
so, we got it all down, so, tell me everything we're going to make, or, what i need to model

[TheABELBOTO]

aw, i can't script, and if i can, i would've sucked at it

[TheABELBOTO]

uh

thread abandoned?

[Spite]

Not quite.

[TheABELBOTO]

BUMP
this is to good of a idea to waste!

[LegoPoster]

guys, chaos ARE possible, one time, back in like 2009, there was this rad server with a built garden and a chao playertype



im =icyfire= BTW, need to switch accounts
