And I love it.

It works like other Autonamers (it only names creatures that don’t have names) except that instead of giving them ‘proper’ names or even goofy names, it gives them names based on their species, gender and generation.

Here are some examples.

bandicam 2013-12-11 22-43-37-043This little boy is named NoM0002. No means he’s a Norn, M means he’s male and 0002 shows what generation he is.

bandicam 2013-12-11 23-24-12-801This little girl is named GrF0208. Gr means she’s a Grendel, F means she’s female and 0208 shows what generation she is.

Why is this useful? It’s useful if you have an automatic exporter on and want to be able to tell at a glance what kind of creature it is and how far down the family tree it is while you’re in your My Creatures folder.

It’s also nice to have if you want to name creatures without having to worry about getting attached to them.

Feel free to expand on this agent if you like! I’ve included the .cos file for your tinkering pleasure. It’s based on the original autonamer.

Enjoy!

Psst! Ideas for expansion? Add letters to identify what order the creatures hatched in. Have fun!

The duck toy comes in more colors than shown. When it’s pressed it can dip below the water before it rises again. It also quacks. 😀 On top of its usual toy perks, it also alleviates loneliness and anger.

Yup. Made some logs using mea’s sprites. I swear, I could use her sprites for my entire agent making learning adventure.

One more of her sprites and then I’ll give spriting a shot though it’s been years since I did any sprite work.

No? You didn’t?

Well I wanted me to make agents. So I did!

On the left we have Charles the Cheese and on the right a Sparkleseed Plant (sprites courtesy of mea at Caos of the Creatures Realm).

bandicam 2013-12-08 18-33-00-945It’s a little embarassing but it took me all afternoon to make the plant and all evening to get the decay and vendor to work. (Big thanks to Liam and Ghosthande for helping me out!) If you like, you can click on the photo to the left there (with the vendor) to download the agent.

Download it, let me know what you think and what I could do to improve it. This is my first agent, after all. 🙂

Enjoy!
