Are we able to set multiple text set's in 1 file, or do they need to be seperate files? Theres nothing on DFWiki about this or anywhere.

Example:

text_secret_example1

[OBJECT:TEXT_SET]

[TEXT_SET:SECRET_EXAMPLE1]

the Pyromancy
Scorcher
the Firestarter
Ruination
Volcanic
the Heat
the Burn
Meltdown
the Lash

[TEXT_SET:SECRET_EXAMPLE2]

the Frost
Frozen
Icy Wind
the Chilling
Frosty Ruin
the Hailing
the Freezing
Ice
the Cryomancy




EDIT: I did test this to see if it would work, no errorlogs, but theres no good way to check to see if it actually worked since codex/scrolls contianing secrets rarely show up, let along use these.

I am also interested in the answer to this. Has anyone figured this out?

It doesn't matter, because...

...you can't define your own arbitrary TEXT_SETs.  [TEXT_SET:SECRET_EXAMPLE1] is just ignored.

These are the only TEXT_SET definitions that will do anything, straight from the executable:

Alright, Putnam, if you say so....

[madk]

It doesn't matter, because...

...you can't define your own arbitrary TEXT_SETs.  [TEXT_SET:SECRET_EXAMPLE1] is just ignored.

These are the only TEXT_SET definitions that will do anything, straight from the executable:

Awesome, that's good to know. Though in my case, I was interested in how the parser behaves, not just the practicality of adding new TEXT_SETs.

So in light of all this, I tried modifying the vanilla TEXT_SETs to define two in the same file.

I got an error with Dwarf Fortress when trying to start a new game, saying the TEXT_SET I had pasted below another one couldn't be found.

So I think this confirms that TEXT_SETs are a special case in the parser, and everything following a [TEXT_SET:ID] token in a file is treated as newline-separated strings, not parsed as normal tokens. Meaning you can't put two different TEXT_SETs in the same file.

This is incorrect. You can define your own text sets just fine. Please don't spread misinformation.

In general: just because the string dump has a list of hardcoded IDs doesn't mean you can't add your own. You'll also find [SYN_AFFECTED_CLASS:GENERAL_POISON] in the string dump, but it doesn't mean GENERAL_POISON is the only valid entry for SYN_AFFECTED_CLASS.

You find that in the string dump because there's a list of hardcoded text sets the game might want to use and it has to associate that list with some strings, not because those are the only ones allowed. There's code allowing for new text sets to be defined all over the place.

Also, your list of "the only text set definitions that will do anything" doesn't even include every vanilla text set. It's missing dwarf/elf/goblin slayer speech.

So yeah, please avoid being too gung ho about this stuff. At least test it a little first.
