If I am not wrong, there is no way to change the "breath" "spell" element. Where should I search in the files to change it manually? I am willing to cheat if there is no way for the dragon to attack with It's head's element.

The dragon always attacks with his head's element. That's the whole point of the head system. The breath spell is a separate, well, magic spell. It costs mana and everything, and is OP even in its current form. Which is why it's only fire, and not going to change.
Easiest is to change the 'element: fire' line in 'game\content\skills\fireball\data.yaml'. I think the system is robust enough to account for it. Requires new game or precision work with the console.
You could also tinker with the 'modded_effect()' function in 'battlefield class.rpy' and 'skill.rpy' to make it dynamically change to the dragon's best element, but you'd have to code in the 'best element' part yourself and know some Python to do it safely.
Thank you!
Just started to explore the file system today. Wanted to be thematic and be mono color. I can only imagine a mixed build as weird fleshy bouquet. Reminds me also of the Yu-gi-oh monster, Five-Headed Dragon. Always found it stupid looking.

Note that the combat system is built on the assumption that you vary your heads. So monochromatic dragons are a challenge, not the 'normal' course of the game. You'll have to cultivate minions with appropriate damage types to beat enemies resistant to your element if you go that way.
If you know how to code, you can change a lot of stuff. Many things are balanced pretty specifically, though, so you'll remove some of the challenge and the fun that comes from that if you go about changing things to fit your opinion of what's 'realistic'. Without compensating somehow, that is. It's a game, after all, even if it's one trying to be a dragon rape sim.

I can't claim the Ice Castle. Saw a post before about them needing ice resistance. I can't claim it still with 5 white heads. 95% ice resistance is considered immunity?
Other prsvious post about these resistance lairs is not really clear for me? Are thee events checking the wrong resistance scores?

The giant castles require wings and ice/fire immunity. The ice/fire caves without inhabitants need resistance (2 heads, will be lowered to one) and 'alpinism' (not sure about release, but either wings or size above medium, maybe also 2+ paws instead, but the last could only be in the WIP version).
95% resistance is immunity, yes.

The wing requirement was definitely not clear in the text. Maybe I remember wrong. At least I could raid it for the hatchery without one.

No, you're right, the "Can't lair here" messages don't support multiple requirements. I guess I need to look into that.
The hatchery raiding is intended, because otherwise, you'd be pretty screwed on the upgrades. Especially since in the future, you'll have to go through hatchery upgrades in order, no more jumping straight to elven or dwarven versions.

Maybe I am missing something, but everytime I capture anyone at some point there happens an event in which the captive is killed by my Goblins. It makes it impossible to even get one egg as this usually happens latest half way through pregnancy.
Can someone help me?
Am I missing something or is this a bug?

It's a feature. In what reality do bugs come with a hand-picked picture and event text?
You've got to manage your goblins. Read the in-game help about 'unruly' minions, or the thread.
Okay - I do NOT understand how elemental damage works.
The basic damage formula for physical damage is clear: (Attack+(0 to Attack Mastery))*Physical Attack*Defender's Physical Defense
I figured once I had some elemental heads, it would run the same formula for that element in addition to physical damage (using the same Attack Mastery roll result for each element) - then use whichever element would deal the most damage for the final damage.
...but right about now I have EXACTLY 100% in both acid and physical, and I thought this would mean that against enemies with 0% acid resistance I'd deal normal damage.
Basically, I figured 100% damage would just let me ignore the physical resistance of enemies. (As long as they didn't have acid resistance.)
Except, that only happens SOMETIMES - giving results like this:
But half the time I get results like this:
This:
Or this:
...and I cannot figure out why. The numbers are all clean, with no decimals - and there doesn't seem to be a discernible pattern to how much lower than the incoming physical damage the received acid damage is.
If anyone can explain the math here... please do. I am very confused.
(Oh, and, for the record, I have 32 Attack and 12 Attack Mastery... and for anyone that doesn't feel like opening the game to check, towns have 33% physical resist, archers have 20% physical resist, and both have 0% acid resist.)

Not to worry, that's the normal state of a DDM player. That, and frustrated.
Every element has its own ATKM roll.
These are all normal. Note that physical damage in all these 'weird' cases is always higher than acid. That's no coincidence, 'incoming' is your best damage roll without accounting for resistances. Basically, taunting you how much damage you could have done. 'Received' is the actual damage.
It's essentially two random numbers against each other - so if there's no pattern, the RNG is working as advertised.
Why do you want to know the exact specifics, anyway? Theorycrafting your dragon?
You know, in hindsight, this all seems really obvious... and if I'm being honest, I feel a little bit stupid right now.Every element has its own ATKM roll.

Honestly? It's mostly just obsessive behavior on my part.
Question:
The text for the "Fiery Spawn" quest says to "Breed a Balor from a Dragon Egg in the Fiery Hatchery," but the Fiery Hatchery can't hatch the eggs of minions with more than 15 base power... and the Balor has a base power of 18.
Is this a bug?
Is the text leftover from an older version, and I'm supposed to use a different hatchery?
Or am I missing something?

Using third-party sub-mods is done at your own risk. Also, this very issue came up just one page back.

Would it be possible to know exactly which minions count and which don't?
Moreover, in the help RBM it says that the "minion" text will turn purple when they are getting unruly but I never saw that. Is it the text over the list in the "info" tab?
Also, is there a way to know when a girl will die from egg-laying? is it based on her current power? I'd like to minimize the deaths because it increment the shame score. and I'm a sucker for scores in those kinda games.

Sure.

The help info is largely up to date with the WIP version, while the mod itself obviously isn't. So there are a number of entries that are essentially advertising. This is one of them. The text that would be changing colour is the one that says 'Minions' in the main lair screen.
Not really. It's random, and can be save-scummed if you wish. Every kind of maiden has their own chance of dying (from 0% for demonettes and Homunculi, 1% for ogre mates and all the way up to 50% for frail nobles). which scales up with successive pregnancies. The in-game remedy is to either use milking farms and breeding pits, or just go and catch some replacements. Their eggs are best when they're still fresh, you know.
Then get some breeding pits. The forest temple is probably the earliest you can find one of these. But the shame score is there to entice you into playing very suboptimally. I'd personally ignore it on my first playthrough.

Oh, so that's what "childbirth will always be successful" means! I avoided to put them in there because I thought it would maim them! this should be clearer, I think.
Thanks, buddy, great mod!
