Description
The Kyterrans: Subterranean Ash-Desert Mining-Knight Antlions!
---------------------------

Basic Mod Introduction:
Only my second species mod after like three years of modding. Where the Saturnians mod was focused on wizards, this one is focused on warriors.

Kyterrans are an antlion species from the same planet the Saturnians and Thaumoth are from, Myrasyl. (In fact, Kyterrans used to be an NPC-only species within the Saturnians mod.)

IMPORTANT:
-This mod has taken way to long for me to finish, and I'm getting burnt out. I want to put this on hold to return to later.
-That said, this mod as it is right now already has plenty of content though. I don't want to just hold on to this fully playable mod forever just because of writer's block and cosmetics.

Ok, so what isn't finished then?
-Some items have placeholder descriptions. (archer/mage armor, clothes, etc.)
-There isn't really a lot of lore in the mod.
-Kyterrans are a bit lacking in clothing options.
-The current flag is a placeholder.


Mod Features:
---------------------------
Playable Kyterran Species.
-Kyterrans don't have a humanoid body shape like most species. As such, they use their own clothing/armor.
-Kyterrans resist 25% of fire damage, and cannot be set on fire.

Customization options:
-Primary Color (Some color options also change their head color or eye color)
-Alt Color (Changes shoulder, foot, and claw colors)
-Antennae Style
-Lens Color (Yes, those are lenses on their face! Their actual eyes are about the size of a Floran's)

Weapons:
-Drill lances, weaponized drills that can mine tiles
-Greatswords, slightly weightier two handed swords
-Two bows and two staves for tiers 5 and 6
-Duplicates of the Saturnian Maces (with unique looks for tier 4 and tier 5)
-Kyterrans can craft all default, vanilla weapons that other races can craft (with the exception of the Novakids' guns)

Armor/Clothes:
-Sets of armor for all 6 tiers
-4 sets of clothes: Three robe sets, and a Protectorate Uniform
-4 hats

Furniture:
-A custom Kyterran mannequin that can display their clothes/armor
-Obsidian furniture (a table, chair, bed, desk, crate, and door).
-Some furniture carried over from Saturnians (Kyterran banners, orange and cyan crystal lamps)

Two farmables:
-Lava Bulbs- a glowing fruit that's related to the Lumens Saturnians grow. Non-Kyterrans may not be able to handle its spiciness. Instead of rotting, Lavabulbs cool.
-Ashrooms- a small mushroom that grows from ceilings. It doesn't need any tilling.
-You can make several food items with these.
Misc:
-Edited Saturnian ship that was already an edited Glitch ship.
-Armored crab pet, edited from the vanilla Hylotl pet.

Where do you craft the Kyterran equipment?

Hey, sorry for the late reply, but I think I finally found the problem.
The Saturnians mod also has a Lavabulb plant (ID: saturnlavaplant), but it's an unused, unfinished version that only produces seeds, obsidian, and plant fiber.
The Kyterran version is the finished one (ID: kyterranlavaplant), it should never produce obsidian.

A quick way to check would be to look at the description for the seeds. If you have the unfinished Saturnians version, it says "Watering it makes it produce needles of obsidian.", it should instead be "A spicy relative of the lumen that burns soil for energy."

Hello! How does one harvest Lavabulbs? I harvest them and always just get obsidian.

Oh I see, really neat design choice.
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] 31 Aug, 2022 @ 11:00pm 
Yeah, the lenses are part of their body. I was inspired by the lenses the Pokémon Flygon has (Flygon is also based on an antlion by the way!)
It always seemed like a neat way to portray insect eyes.

So are the lenses part of their body? Or like....a clothing item?
