Custom Entity not using Designations
« on: August 24, 2011, 08:06:21 pm »

Recently, I added Kobolds, Goblins, Dwarves, Elves, and Humans all as castes in one group, and then used the group as an entity that was pretty much copied from the MOUNTAIN entity, with a few minor adjustments to things such as culling certain words and ethics.
So I tested this entity in Dwarf Mode, and after fixing a few problems with using the regular tokens instead of caste tokens, I noticed that none of my creatures were performing any designations. They would however, use buildings, build buildings etc.
Could I please get some help with this?

I did bring an axe and two picks, also they don't have (tame) by their names, but they do have professions.

Does the race have equips? anyone can haul stuff and build stuff, but if they can't hold a pick or a axe they can't do any designations. As a test try to smooth/engrave a watt/floor, if that works make sure they are wearing or holding stuff

The kobold mason I had in my group did smooth the wall, and everyone is wearing clothes.
Even when I enable mining for the dwarf in my group, he won't mine, and I haven't changed the dwarf raws besides putting them as a caste instead of a creature.
