Aquifier removing fail. What am i doing wrong?
« on: March 26, 2015, 06:59:14 pm »
Recently downloaded the 40.24 version and immediately went to the raws, so i could remove those pesky aquifiers. Deleted the [AQUIFIER] from every layer that had it and then created a new world for test. I attempted to embark, but guess what? Yeah, Aquifiers! Created a new one: Aquifiers! What am i doing wrong?

i know there are several different files which hold the aquifer raws. you may just not have gotten them all.

other thing to check: you're editing the master raws and not just the raws of a previous save (i've made this mistake before)

You likely need to remove the tag from the mineral puddingstone. Also, did you remove it from the sand and loam layers in the soil file?

Yes, i'm editing the master raws and i'm pretty sure i got all the files that hold the aquifier tag, i checked them all: metal, other, stone gem, stone layer, stone mineral, stone soil.

Your consistency makes me wonder: you are searching for instances of "AQUIFER", right?

Substituting all the [AQUIFIER] tags for blank.

What scamtank is saying is that you're spelling it wrong.  There is no such thing as an AQUIFIER tag, so replacing that with blank will do nothing.
