Does the honey badger show up alright in your games? Like, crocodile has CROCODILE_SALTWATER for its tag but the honey badger doesn't have that underscore. I don't know if things might screw up if I add it in, or if it's even necessary.

This is in the large_tropical creatures file, raw/objects folder. There are more right after the badger, GIGANTIC TOTRTOISE, and even stranger, the giant armadillo has a comma seperating it, "ARMADILLO, GIANT."

As far as I know, the CAMEL_CASE style names are just a convention.  I have seen modded plants written in "camel case" that only had problems when some other raw tokens referenced the names of those plants incorrectly (they referenced them using camel_case IIRC).  HONEY BADGER should work just fine on it's own.  It is still a breach of DF's normal coding style and should be fixed, but it isn't actually a bug as far as the player is concerned.

I don't think anything else would refer to the honey badger, so you could change it's name with no problems (at least so long as you don't change it's name in an already genned world).  If it was something like breastplate armor you were changing the name of, you would also need to go into the entity file and change the ARMOR token that refers to it.

A bigger problem are the missing left brackets in various places, which affect the game.

In creature_temperate_new.txt:

Code: [Select]

In creature_standard.txt, dwarves:

Here we handle nail length.

The missing brackets on the nails might be intentional of course.

Missing brackets are also a way to comment things out.

That's what I meant by

I don't see why the giant koala tag would be commented out, it seems to me to be a bug.

Maybe DF needs GIANT EUCALYPTUS before we get GIANT KOALA?

They do not have special diets... why do people overestimate DF?

Blame pandas.
