SOLVED:Help please, makign new creature and civ
« on: August 09, 2009, 05:37:59 pm »

hello everyone. I'm trying to make a creature and civ... it's somethign that keeps nagging at my mind... but i can't get it to generate, even wen i rip out the other entity file... i know about the caching of other,s and thus the worlds don't generate...

i got it to where it woul say 'can't place enough civs' with some tweaking... but it still wouldn't work. i tried placing it into the entity_default file... no luck...

here are the raws.

creature
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

the entity file
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Please help me, this has been bothering me for several days now.

This is the upate creature and entity raws. I cutrrently can not get it to spawn even 1 civ in a 1-civ map, and it times out on the error counter several times, and doens't show up.

It was at this point that I realised that dwarves are actually the essence of chaos. What else can make perpetual motion machines, recursive statues with more building materials than the average tower and has such a short attention span that a damn fine chair can off-set the death of their entire family.

1) It's [PERSONALITY:ALTRUISM:25:100] et cetera.
2) Your spheres are spelled wrong. http://dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Sphere - look for the list "Basic list of Sphere tokens ".
3) PUNISH_REPRIMAND, MISGUIDED.

I think your errorlog shows everything clear :). These are errors to be fixed.
