How do factions work?
« on: June 14, 2016, 10:11:29 am »

Does it essentially make it so there are only four sides in a conflict or is there the possibility of fighting between two slaving nations and stuff?

There is a possibility of war, but its rare. Just like vanilla DF and war with elves or humans.

Ah ok, that's what I was hoping to hear. One last question though. In the menu, does the Titan civ mean what I think it means?

I'm assuming you think it's a race made up entirely of the largest moon of Saturn, so no.    ???

Night creatures.  Gloom hags, twightlight blobs, shadow horrors, etc.  There's 150 castes of each (nightcreatures & titans) so if you want specifics, open up the file and have a look :)

My guess is that Meph pre-randomly generated the titans and nightcreatures in a time before time, as opposed to using the exact ones that are randomly are created at the generation of your specific world, although i'm not positive about that.

I extracted the world.dat and used 150 procedually generated vanilla DF titans, nightcreatures, etc to make those creatures, yes.
