Was going through the 28Jun mutationdata.cpp and if I read it right, Light Step is part of the Bird category, but apparently not a valid mutation of itself. (So you’d either take it at chargen, at which point it does nothing for your mutation categories, or you’d never have it at all.)
[quote=“Tamunshin, post:2, topic:2301”]My quick look through seems to confirm that.
In addition, the Quick trait seems to be the same, it’s in the bird, insect and troglodyte categories, but can’t be mutated naturally.[/quote]
Then, maybe not: I’m confident that I’ve mutated Quick (extra fun when it turns up alongside Ponderous) before. My characters take Light Step at chargen. Might have to resort to the debug menu…
[quote=“Oragepoilu, post:4, topic:2301”]Light step and Quick can be aquired by mutation. Tested and approuved from 7.1, 7.0, 6 and some night build between.
Instead of looking in the file, just allow debug mod and give you some mutation potion :p[/quote]
Good to know. My current character (28Jun) is capable of reliably making any mutagen/purifier you’d like. Was in the files because the new category-enforcement seemed interesting enough to warrant compiling statistics on categories/mutations.
Oragepoilu, are you certain that you mutated these traits with regular mutagen, and not category mutagen? I did some pretty extensive testing and failed to mutate either of these using plain mutagen a single time. Although using the category mutagen seems to allow them.
I didn’t test with normal mutagen in 7.x but i know iv already, in a night build, get light step with a random one (was my first drink also, kinda usefull to avoid mass Z in early game). Thus, when you pick a normal potion, your mute toward a style, so if you don’t mute toward one of the 3 that allow this mutation it’s likely you won’t get it. but i think you already know that.
