               Wow, really nice... I'd definitely use that on WSI, especially if you can get swallowed!

On a hit, it has a chance to "swallow" you into another area, in which you're subject to bludgeoning and acid damage. The tileset needs to be replaced for that area (organic caves was a better choice)

Paralysis + invisibility + recursive damage function? Not a fan of creature abilities teleporting my character, and making me miss seeing the rest of the fight while 'swallowed', but each to their own. I guess it makes sense to shut your eyes for roleplay purposes, but then so does only carrying 5 or 6 items with you '<img'>

The fun about being teleported inside the creature is that - depending how it's implemented - you could also attack its guts from the inside while struggling to stay alive in the toxical acid. I admit I only ever experienced being swallowed in a SP module (could it have been Baldecaran's Prophet? The Aielund saga?  I don't remember). But I imagine just as usagreco66kg's party found it hilarious to see their tank being swallowed whole, it could be fun to witness the worm explode and watch the swallowed PC re-appear, telling the story of how he/she fought the monster from the inside (unless that scripting isn't compatible with MP but I assume it is).

Of course, to each his own; just saying that being swallowed doesn't have to be a passive experience that prevents you from seeing the rest of the combat - you could also see it from a directly opposed viewpoint: you might even have MORE fun because you're going to see an area noone else has seen before.

               From the script I linked;
This is a Bulette with custom scripts that lets it swallow a PC, and a map called 'The Stomach' that they are teleported to on a successful bite attack. In the stomach they can bash a placeable labelled the 'esophagus' to escape, or their team mates can kill the bulette to save the PC. The placeable is scripted to damage the bulette as much as it is damaged. If the PC is killed by the stomach acid, they respawn outside the bulette.

               These are fantastic Baba. I have always enjoyed your medusa creature. You may want to stop by the CCC when you have the time. :-)

Thanks for sharing all this content.

               I just downloaded your creatures for use in an mod and I particularly like the varans. However, it seems like their "box" is too big for their animation in the toolset and they cause clipping issues when you try to maneuver around them in-game.

               The varan creatures have wrong 2da entries about their size (they are mistdragon abominations). It is easy to fix if you copy and paste the correct entries from a same sized creature.

Sorry for the delay on anything shown. RL is going strong on me right now.

               Those frogs look outstanding.  Can't wait for them to be ready.  I'll be using them for sure.  There isn't anything descent frog/toad wise to choose from right now.

               So rubbing my hands together in anticipation of those frogs. They'll go great with your Bullywugs!

FP!
