I'm looking for a script that produces either a necromancer slab (tried atomic chicken's but it doesn't work, and the one burrito25man made with the help of meph years ago. Again, doen't work) so is there an updated version of them or does someone have to make a new one? And while i have experience in coding, i have none in .lua... mostly html and c# (and even then my c# is rusty at best)

Here's an updated version, now embellished with a gui:

Code: [Select]

-- Create a secret-conveying slab at the cursor position.

gui/create-secret-slab
======================
A graphical interface for creating slabs that are capable of conveying
an I_SOURCE:SECRET interaction to readers.

Place the cursor wherever you want the slab to appear and run the script.
You will then be asked to select the slab's material and quality,
to input the text that will appear on the slab
(for example, "the secrets of life and death"),
and to select the secret that it will transfer.

To use:
- Install DFHack if you've not done so already.
- Copy-paste the above code into a text editor.
- Save it as a .lua file within the \hack\scripts folder.
- When playing, point the cursor wherever you want the slab to appear and enter [the name you assigned to the file when saving it] as a command in the DFHack console.

You are a lifesaver. I've been going through threads several years old for a while now trying to figure out either how to update them myself or find someone else who has.

Although I do not understand this part

and to select the secret that it will transfer.

As nothing I enter is accepted.

Never mind, I'm retarded. Anybody else who attempts to remove all other necromancers from the world while using this, don't. Should've been obvious that removing all 'secrets' during worldgen would not only prevent necromancers from spawning, but prevent you from creating a necromancer's slab as well.
