This is a new race I'm creating, and a few questions come to mind. I've done some mild testing to see what works and what doesn't, but there are a few things I'm unsure about. For the purpose of debate, I named this new race 'Customs'
First of all, the [training] tag lets you create war-customs and hunting-customs. War dogs are apparantly 'more aggressive' - is that the only way to get a custom pet creature that will be aggressive and fight alongside dwarves, or is it just that adding 'war' simply makes them additionally aggressive? I do have the likes_fighting tag, in case that matters.
Secondly, what exactly does 'cluster number' do? The wiki states: "The minimum/maximum numbers of how many creatures per spawned cluster", but I have no idea what that means.
Third, is it possible to make a monogender or no-gender race that still has babies? I like the idea of all-male Satyr, all-female Dryad, and then amoeba-like races that simply fission off more children.
Fourth, on the baby subject, is it possible to set baby (and child) to 0, resulting in instantadults? I'm currently fighting for customs to have children at all, which is making it difficult to test this.
Fifth, I'm fairly sure I'm right on this, but to make sure: If you have no [maxage] tag, the species is immortal (At least, won't die of old age)?
Finally, would adding the [trances] tag do anything to a nondwarf?
Thank you in advance.
