Okay, so, I'm playing with Steel Dwarves of my own design. Basically, a lot of Bronze Colossus copypasta, and they're reaaaaaaly tough and good in a fight, but they seem not to heal, ever.
Here's my dorves:
[CREATURE:DWARF]
[DESCRIPTION:A short, sturdy creature fond of drink and industry. They were turned to steel in the great Magnetic Field; this has not lessened their fondness for drink and industry.]
[NAME:steel dwarf:steel dwarves:dwarven]
[CASTE_NAME:steel dwarf:steel dwarves:dwarven]
[CREATURE_TILE:1][COLOR:3:0:0]
Many of the following tags are actually caste-level tags (in this case, male and female), but because there are no differences between the castes for these tags in a dwarf, you can add them earlier. Any caste-level tag that occurs before castes are explicitly declared is saved up and placed on any caste that is declared later, unless the caste is explicitly derived from another caste.
[INTELLIGENT]
[TRANCES]
[BENIGN]
[CANOPENDOORS]
[PREFSTRING:beards]
[NOPAIN]
[EXTRAVISION]
[NOBREATHE]
[NONAUSEA]

[TISSUE:STEEL]
[TISSUE_NAME:steel:steel]
[TISSUE_MATERIAL:INORGANIC:STEEL]

[RELATIVE_THICKNESS:1]

[TISSUE_SHAPE:LAYER]
[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_CATEGORY:ALL:STEEL]
Attributes for dwarves are still described in terms of the median value below, but the actual game effects are altered according to the raw numbers. The numbers are different percentile values. 1000 is the human median for all attributes, so dwarven strength, for instance, has a higher median of 1250, although they suffer from their smaller size.
[PHYS_ATT_RANGE:STRENGTH:450:950:1150:1250:1350:1550:2250] +
[PHYS_ATT_RANGE:AGILITY:150:600:800:900:1000:1100:1500] -
[PHYS_ATT_RANGE:TOUGHNESS:450:950:1150:1250:1350:1550:2250] +

[MENT_ATT_RANGE:CREATIVITY:450:950:1150:1250:1350:1550:2250] +
[MENT_ATT_RANGE:PATIENCE:450:950:1150:1250:1350:1550:2250] +
[MENT_ATT_RANGE:MEMORY:450:950:1150:1250:1350:1550:2250] +
[MENT_ATT_RANGE:SPATIAL_SENSE:700:1200:1400:1500:1600:1800:2500] ++
These tags establish the growth phases of the creature's life. The format is (BODY_SIZE|<year>|<day>|<average size>).
[BODY_SIZE:0:0:3000]
[BODY_SIZE:1:168:15000]
[BODY_SIZE:12:0:60000]
These body modifiers give individual dwarves different characteristics. In the case of HEIGHT, BROADNESS and LENGTH, the modifier is also a percentage change to the BODY_SIZE of the individual creature. The seven numbers afterward give a distribution of ranges. Each interval has an equal chance of occurring.
[BODY_APPEARANCE_MODIFIER:HEIGHT:75:95:98:100:102:105:125]
[APP_MOD_IMPORTANCE:500]
[BODY_APPEARANCE_MODIFIER:BROADNESS:75:95:98:100:102:105:125]
[APP_MOD_IMPORTANCE:500]
[ATTACK:PUNCH:BODYPART:BY_TYPE:GRASP]
[ATTACK_SKILL:GRASP_STRIKE]
[ATTACK_VERB:punch:punches]
[ATTACK_CONTACT_PERC:100]
[ATTACK_FLAG_WITH]
[ATTACK_PRIORITY:MAIN]
[ATTACK:KICK:BODYPART:BY_TYPE:STANCE]
[ATTACK_SKILL:STANCE_STRIKE]
[ATTACK_VERB:kick:kicks]
[ATTACK_CONTACT_PERC:100]
[ATTACK_FLAG_WITH]
[ATTACK_PRIORITY:SECOND]
Here, GENERAL_BABY_NAME is at the creature level, and BABYNAME is at the caste level. These names could be gender-specific but aren't right now.
[BABY:1]
[GENERAL_BABY_NAME:steel dwarven baby:steel dwarven babies]
[BABYNAME:steel dwarven baby:steel dwarven babies]
[CHILD:12]
[GENERAL_CHILD_NAME:steel dwarven child:steel dwarven children]
[CHILDNAME:steel dwarven child:steel dwarven children]
[EQUIPS]
[CAVE_ADAPT]
[DIURNAL]
This is the new format for making specific unit names for a creature. Any unit token can be used. If you want to add a caste-specific profession name, use CASTE_PROFESSION_NAME instead, once the caste has been declared.
[PROFESSION_NAME:CRAFTSMAN:craftsdwarf:craftsdwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:FISHERMAN:fisherdwarf:fisherdwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:HAMMERMAN:hammerdwarf:hammerdwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:SPEARMAN:speardwarf:speardwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:CROSSBOWMAN:marksdwarf:marksdwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:AXEMAN:axedwarf:axedwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:SWORDSMAN:swordsdwarf:swordsdwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:MACEMAN:macedwarf:macedwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:PIKEMAN:pikedwarf:pikedwarves]
[PROFESSION_NAME:BOWMAN:bowdwarf:bowdwarves]
[SPEECH:dwarf.txt]

Now we'll declare the specific castes.
[CASTE:FEMALE]
The gender tag lets it know how breeding works.
[FEMALE]
[MULTIPLE_LITTER_RARE]
To add beards, put square brackets around the following:
BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:FACIAL_HAIR_TISSUE_LAYERS
[CASTE:MALE]
[MALE]
BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:FACIAL_HAIR_TISSUE_LAYERS
This command lets you select all of the castes again.They don't seem to heal, and the doctors don't seem to do anything. What can I do to fix this? Can it even be fixed? For bonus points, can I make magma forges the only hospital my steel dwarves need, and legendary metalsmiths the only doctors they require?
