More Part Lists
Trends
Parts appear to increase in quality as they move closer to the right (ie. larger column number). On the other hand, earlier carnivore rows have greater social attributes while rows near the bottom have better attack attributes. This trend does not hold for omnivores as each end-column has (+4) sing or herbivores as each end-column has (+5) Sing. Sing maxes out at (+3) for carnivores, further confirming that carnivores are more suited for aggressive tactics, while herbivores are ideal for socialness/diplomacy (+5 to sing).
Limitations
The maximum attribute level for a given part is of five (5), but it appears possible to sum the attributes of different parts together. For example mouth A: +2 Bite, mouth B: +5 bite would be 5+2 = 7. This has not been confirmed yet, but it appears to be correct.

- Abilities: Attributes & Abilities made available or increased upon by equipping the part.
- Cost: DNA Point expenditure needed to equip the part.
- Animal Icons (reptile, fish, ape, bird, trunk): Servers two purposes: offers a origin for the piece, but more importantly an idea of what sort of sound the creature will have when equipped with such a mouth.
- Check Mark (social & attack): Subjective view on what are the best social and attack parts offered in each mouth category.
- Icon Background Color: Some parts have out of the ordinary attributes, such a Spit, Strike and Health - we’ve made such parts easy to find by color coding their icons.
