Elf and Dwarf cities?
« on: February 24, 2012, 05:52:59 pm »

Hey, so I was wondering where in the raws I can find the tag that makes humans have hamlets, towns, forts, etc. I was hoping to have elves and dwarves have them as well.

located in the "enitiy_default.txt" [DEFAULT_SITE_TYPE:CAVE_DETAILED] - dwarves live in carved out caves, chance this to CITY also they can't live in mountians (can't build cities in mountians) so you would have to change the START biome

Your welcome, I've been modding since 40d and I still have moments where I don't know what to do (or how to change something)

Is there a seperate tag for civs building fortresses? On examination of the world gen, I see dwarven towers, but all the forts seem human. Bearing in mind, I haven't actually played the world yet, just looked at it during world-gen, so I will have to get back to you on whether or not there are dwarven and elven forts after-all

Scratch that, not only is there forts, but this dwarven city is the largest city I have ever seen of any civilization. This is going to be awesome :o

Actually there is a separate tag for building forts.  [BUILDS_OUTDOOR_FORTIFICATIONS]

I find it funny that until now, no one (including myself) stopped to consider the absurdity of a submarine in which the crew cabin is filled with water and the crew is drowning when everything is working properly.

I just copied over the humans' site preferences to the dwarves without changing the biome preferences, and they're perfectly happy to build cities in mountains - usually around the edge of the mountain biome, which is pretty cool anyway, but I have seen a couple deeper in, I think.
