Summary

0005876: Ballistomycete description is inaccurate

Description

I quote:

"Ballistomycete

A lumpy reddish fungus covered in knobbly rhizome growths, growing well in the
dank underground dungeon. It will occasionally produce giant spore balls, which
in turn will give rise to more ballistomycetes."

Either actually make the ballistomycetes do what it SAYS they do (and occasionally spawn giant spores) or change the description. I would prefer that they go back to actually producing giant spores, so they're actually useful again for Fedhasites and more than just another barricade for everyone else.

Thanks all!

I have updated the description (0.11-a0-2686-g30bfcb6) to replace the second sentence if you are worshipping Fedhas: non-worshipper: "It will occasionally produce giant spore balls, which in turn will give rise to more ballistomycetes." worshipper: "Fedhas has suppressed its production of giant spores to protect you from explosions."

(0018738) Andy (reporter) 2012-07-05 23:19	Okay, thank you Neil! I never abandon a "god" once I choose one, so I guess that I never had dozens of ballistomycetes spawning angry giant spores due to Fedhas wrath... after I had spent time growing them all over the dungeon!
