Riding a pink dolphin underwater
|
Dolphins come in six different types (from common to rare): blue, green, purple, dark, pink and albino. The last two kinds are seen only rarely in the wild.
Taming Dolphins
Dolphins can be tamed by being fed Raw Fish. The rarer the Dolphin, the more Raw Fish required to be tamed. A blue Dolphin requires 2 Raw Fish while an albino dolphin requires 12 Raw Fish. Dolphins can also be tamed by riding/breaking them. Rarer Dolphins are noticeably faster than common ones.
Breeding Dolphins
Tamed adult Dolphins can be bred by feeding them Cooked Fish and keeping them apart from other creatures in a similar fashion to Horse breeding. Young Dolphins can not breed or be tamed/ridden. Two Dolphins of the same color will always have offspring of the same color. Dolphins have a 'genetic value' from 1-6 (blue = 1 and albino = 6) if the parent Dolphins are of different colors. There is a 1/3 chance of obtaining a purple or dark Dolphin if the genetic value addition of the parents is 3 or 4 and a 1/10 chance of obtaining a pink or albino Dolphin if the genetic value addition equals 5 or 6. For example, a pink dolphin(5) can be obtained in 1/10 of cases by combining a blue(1) plus a dark(4) Dolphin or a green (2) plus a purple (3) Dolphin.
