TheresaThoma Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I figured instead of taking over ArFink's thread we should start one just for the HabitRPG. In the most recent news I now have a sword, a hat, and a PET! Yes I have a nice little red wolf. I'm very happy!
ChristinaTherese Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 So, what are these diamonds I keep seeing as costs for some things?
AnneLine Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I haz pets too! I'm displayed with my 'flying pig' but I haz others, too! (No one wants to sleep with a flying pig!) Regarding the diamonds.... on the toolbar there is a ? and a section for help. There are some tutorial videos... if you watch them your questions will more-or-less get answered. Apparently they are the cost of various items in the inventory. I'm not sure I understand myself. My question is, can one belong to more than one 'party'? (I'd love to use this with some of my secular order members, for example, as a way of establishing good 'habits'....) Does anyone know?
maximillion Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I am still trying to figure it all out, but I have a hat and a sword now........ I do okay with habits and dailies but my to do is woeful..... :cry:
AnneLine Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Max, we can help you ... but if you want to get into the 'party' with us, you need to send ARFink a PM so he can send you an invite to it. I'm sure you're welcome, but I know it is starting to get 'full' in there, so do it soon? Here's how I think of what to put on the habits, the dailies and the to do's for what it is worth. Habits are the things I want to encourage and/or discourage in my life. They're pretty easy to figure out, and even to figure out which ones I want to give more or less weight to. You just kinda know what you need to do here. Same with the dailies. They are like the skeleton on my body... they hold me up. I know I need a head (with eyes, ears, a mouth & a nose... and some pretty hair), 2 arms with hands, 2 legs with feet. (Some people may find they want more or less!) For that one I use a combo of FlyLady routines (morning, evening and night) and my Secular Order Prayer schedule (the elements I need to chunk off each day) and the few weekly commitments I have. That is the skeleton of my dailies. The To Dos are the things I need or want to do (and/or need to delegate to someone else! and keep track of) that are the way I get the first Habits and the Dailies accomplished. So.... they are the things like read Book A (because I need to get it read and I keep procrastinating) or clean this, or write to this person, or call this person or pay my bills or whatever needs to be done. If I am spending time on it (or resisting spending time on it!), it is a to do (even if only for a short while....) and if I keep putting off 'doing' it... then it will stay on that list until I get tired of seeing it there and watching it turn first orange and then red! :blush: Max, the other thing I keep reminding myself of is a comment that Fr. Walter Ciszek, the Jesuit who was in Russia for a number of years as a hidden priest/worker, made about a lesson he learned when he first arrived. He was living as a 'worker' in a workers' camp with another Jesuit; they had the hope of being able to minister as priests. When they first arrived, they were assigned to work on an automobile repair team. At first they were horrified at how low their rations were in comparison to everyone else's. Then they learned the secret. They had been putting down 'changed a tire' and got 1 credit for that job. The other workers were putting down: Removed bolt, removed tire, tested innertube for leaks. Located and repaired leak. Replaced Tire, Replaced bolt. And in doing that they got credit for SIX things, not just one! This may give you some ideas! :evil:
arfink Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I haz pets too! I'm displayed with my 'flying pig' but I haz others, too! (No one wants to sleep with a flying pig!) Regarding the diamonds.... on the toolbar there is a ? and a section for help. There are some tutorial videos... if you watch them your questions will more-or-less get answered.

(I'd love to use this with some of my secular order members, for example, as a way of establishing good 'habits'....) Does anyone know? The gems are an alternate currency which is based on actual US dollars. Each gem is worth $0.25 I believe. If you don't want to wait to be randomly given loot like eggs or potions, you could buy it instead. It's one of the ways the developers make some money back on this project. Gems can also be purchased by party or guild leaders to distribute as prizes for special challenges. I might do that at some point. :) And I do not believe you can belong to more than one party. Sadly. :/
AnneLine Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 (edited) Well.... thank you for clarifying that about the gems. I gather we get 'drops' of eggs, potions (to wake up eggs) and various kinds of food. The only thing is, I found my pig was pretty darn picky.... offered him FIVE kinds of food and he didn't like NONE of 'em. I am not sure I am feeding him any more! Can't afford THAT picky an eater! Is there a secret for knowing what kind of food they like? And I am sorry to hear I can only be in one party, but I am GLAD to be in yours, ARFINK! :) Edited March 19, 2014 by AnneLine
AnneLine Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 You are right, ARFINK.... this is what I found on http://blog.habitrpg.com/post/51476277225/upcoming-features-bugs-update-user-survey from just before they set up the Parties and Guilds: Guilds will act almost identically to parties, but less visual (no avatars header, but you can click to see profile modals) and you can belong to multiple guilds (you can only belong to one party). They can have many more members than a party, they have their own chatrooms and player list, and we imagine people will create topical guilds like “JavaScript Coders†(Think subreddits). Where guilds really shine is with the release of Challenges. Challenges allow you to create Habits, Dailies, Todos, and Rewards that many people subscribe to. They will be centrally tracked (so you can see the overall progress of everyone subscribed to the challenge), and eventually we’ll add a “Prize†feature where you can give some of your Gems to the challenge champion.
AnneLine Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 NOW they tell me! I know how to be a good momma now!!!!! I know what my pets like to eat! Found a table on http://habitrpg.wikia.com/wiki/Food
AnneLine Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 (edited) And a very rough hint looks like this! CARNIVORES LIKE MEAT/DAIRY wolf, bear, tiger, lion. fox HERBIVORES LIKE VEGGIES/FRUIT panda FANTASY CREATURES LIKE SWEETS flying pig, dragon, cactus Now I just need to wait for some food to drop to feed the beasties! Edited March 19, 2014 by AnneLine
TheresaThoma Posted March 20, 2014 Author Posted March 20, 2014 I now have three wolves. I fed my first one some rotten meat. It said that it ate it but didn't enjoy it. I wouldn't either!
TheresaThoma Posted March 20, 2014 Author Posted March 20, 2014 You have to get to level 4 and then you will get random "drops" when you complete tasks.
maximillion Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 I got a drop of a pet, then later, a drop of some food but I don't know where or how to find them...?
SilentJoy Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 I got a drop of a pet, then later, a drop of some food but I don't know where or how to find them...? At the top of the screen, there is an "Inventory" icon (looks like a wrapped present). Click on "Inventory," select "Pets," and then scroll down the page until you find the image of your pet. If it hasn't "Hatched" yet, click on your "Hatching potion" (if you've been given one yet); the image of the pet egg will glow. Click on egg and it will ask if you want to use the hatching potion. Same with other food and gifts, click on the object you want to use, then click on the pet.
maximillion Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Thankyou so much. I haz me a wolfie! I am not at all IT fluent!!! Edited March 20, 2014 by maximillion
AnneLine Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Congratulations on your baby Wolfie! I have a bunch of pets, but didn't feed them properly and I haz no food for them. :( Learn from my sad tale.... if you look at the Inventory and Pets, you will see they are listed in rows and column. Each row is a different kind of pet (fox, wolf, dragon, etc.) Each column is a kind of species:. Some are 'base' some are 'zombie', etc. you can see which is which by hovering your mouse over the columns and rows. Each kind of species likes a different kind of food. This will give you all the details (toward the bottom): http://habitrpg.wikia.com/wiki/Food but this is the bottom line: Food Preference Base.........................................Meat White.........................................Milk Desert.......................................Potato Red...........................................Strawberry Shade.......................................Chocolate Skeleton....................................Fish Zombie......................................Rotten Meat Cotton Candy Pink....................Pink Cotton Candy Cotton Candy Blue....................Blue Cotton Candy Golden.......................................Honey
arfink Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Keep in mind, feeding your pets is not necessary to their survival. You only need to feed them in order to grow them into a steed for riding on.
maximillion Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Does the steed come and help with the chores?
SilentJoy Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Can I trade food my pet doesn't want for non-food (rotten meat) that it likes?
