i want to make a race that have some creatures that can be instakilled when hit using certain weapon, is that possible? to maje some kind of "soul" body part and use a special weapon that affects it?

[Bogus]

yes a dfhack script can easily do that. otherwise, no.

there is already a projectile-trigger script which you can use to run your code when a projectile of that particular gun hits. you probably cant control the hitzone, but the instakilling is not a big deal.

no, i want to make a scythe that instakills if hits a bodypart called soul. o dont have dfhack

[Roses]

Then no, not possible.

[randomgenericusername]

no, i mwant i will makr a creature that has that body part nd if hit will instantly die (its a ghost) i want to know if i can make a custom weapon and that it can only be affected by it

[scamtank]

Still no.

I know there is a tag that werewolves have that makes them take more damage from silver. Probably can't be applied to a specific bodypart though.

So no nutcracker weapon that only ever gelds either

You can make a creature vulnerable to a specific material, but not a specific kind of weapon.

If you make a reaction that produces the weapon made out of the custom material, you can make a creature take a lot of extra damage from it.

For example, you can make a lightweight, nearly useless material called 'reaper', have a reaction called 'make a reaper scythe' which then creates a 'scythe' weapon made out of 'reaper'.  Then you make a ghost that is extremely tough in general but takes 10000 times the normal damage from 'reaper' material.  This creature will then be super-vulnerable to the reaper scythe, while the scythe itself will be nearly useless against anything else.

You can't make it instant-kill, but similar principle.

that was exactly what i wanted it for, to make a scythe to kill some modded ghosts i made, thanks for the tip
