Dromedaries, called dromedary calves as babies, are desert-dwelling herbivores that provide milk and act as pack animals.

Taming[edit]

Dromedaries are notable for requiring no minimum skill level to tame. They can be found in arid shrublands, deserts, and extreme deserts.

Summary[edit]

Dromedaries are pen animals. Once tamed, pen animals cannot and do not need to be trained any further. But if left outside of a pen or caravan hitching spot, pen animals will eventually roam outside your colony. Making a caravan is not required to tie animals to a caravan hitching spot.

A dromedary can be milked for up to 18 units of milk every 2 days (depending on your pawn's Animal Gather Yield).

Dromedaries are also pack animals. They will carry up to 73.5kg of weight in a caravan. They can be ridden by pawns to speed caravan speed by up to 130%.

Analysis[edit]

Dromedaries are an "all-in-one" animal, well suited for arid environments. Dromedaries produce milk, are pack animals, and are ridable, a combo entirely unique to dromedaries. In a desert or extreme desert, dromedaries are the only native animal to produce milk, and the only native animal that is a pack animal. Camelhide is also a great textile for heat insulation.

Dromedaries are much larger than most other animals found in a desert and extreme desert.

Milking[edit]

Female dromedaries produce 9 per day, or 0.45 nutrition in milk per day. A dromedary consumes 0.86 nutrition per day. This results in a nutrition efficiency of 52.3% from females' milk alone (or 10.47 per day per 1 nutrition consumed). Dromedaries provide the least milk of all animals.

Yaks are competitive with dromedaries, and choosing between them is more of a matter of preference. They are both pack animals that produce milk, but yaks produce 22% more milk on average, while dromedaries allow riders to speed up caravans. They are otherwise very similar - carrying the same load and eating the same amount. Dromedaries can be found in deserts, while yaks can be found in cooler biomes.

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Guard:
Attack:
Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.
↑ Note that capacities can affect other capacities in turn. Only the primary effect is listed. See specific pages for details.
↑ This is the part that everything else connects to to be considered 'connected'.
↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.

+'''Dromedaries''', called '''dromedary calves''' as babies, are desert-dwelling [[herbivore]]s that provide [[milk]] and act as [[pack animal]]s.
-These creatures can be hunted and butchered by colonists for a plentiful supply of meat. This is especially valuable, considering the scarcity of food in their native desert environment.
+== Taming ==
+Dromedaries are notable for requiring no minimum skill level to tame. They can be found in {{Habitats}}.
-They also provide a large quantity of leather compared to other creatures that spawn in the same biomes, making them useful for a crafting-based economy. Their leather is a sandy brown color.
+== Summary ==
+{{Pen Animal Note|Dromedaries}}
-A Dromedary will also increase the carrying capacity of any [[caravan]] it's part of by 70 kg making them an excellent [[pack animal]].
+A dromedary can be milked for up to {{icon small|milk}} {{P|Milk Amount}} units of milk {{#ifeq:{{P|Milking Interval Days}}|1|per day|every {{P|Milking Interval Days}} days}} (depending on your pawn's [[Animal Gather Yield]]).

+== Analysis ==
-[[Overview#Handle|Handlers]] are required to harvest resources from animals.
+Dromedaries are an "all-in-one" animal, well suited for arid environments. Dromedaries produce milk, are pack animals, and are ridable, a combo entirely unique to dromedaries. In a [[desert]] or [[extreme desert]], dromedaries are the only native animal to produce milk, and the only native animal that is a pack animal. [[Camelhide]] is also a great [[textile]] for heat insulation.
-Female dromedaries can be milked once every 2 days, producing 12 milk.
+Dromedaries are much larger than most other animals found in a desert and extreme desert.
-Note that while [[cow]]s are faster milk producers, dromedaries produce milk AND are pack animals, which is a combo that [[muffalo]]s no longer provide. While [[yak]]s are also pack animals that produce milk, dromedaries carry more, are faster, and produce the same amount of milk at the same rate.
+===Milking===
+Female dromedaries produce {{icon small|milk}} {{P|Daily Milk Average}} per day, or {{#vardefineecho:milk_nutr_per_day|{{#expr:{{P|Daily Milk Average}}*0.05}}}} [[nutrition]] in milk per day. A dromedary consumes {{P|Real Hunger Rate}} nutrition per day. This results in a nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{#var:milk_nutr_per_day}}/{{P|Real Hunger Rate}} round 3}} from females' milk alone (or {{icon small|milk}} {{#expr: {{P|Daily Milk Average}}/{{P|Real Hunger Rate}} round 2}} per day per 1 nutrition consumed). Dromedaries provide the least milk of all animals.
