A raw edit help request.
« on: August 12, 2010, 06:29:28 am »

Well, I need help in raw editing a little. I need to know how can I edit my raws so that my butchers can butcher tame animals corpses. I didnt find any file to edit to make my cows not get tame when they get born. This is because I'm building an automated butcher tower that I saw in some thread (drops cows 30 z-levels and then butchers on the bottom butcher the corpses) but I can't because the cows cant be butchered when they are tame.

Animals can be butchered when tame. Pets, I believe, can not be butchered, even when dead (clarify?). If they are pets ( if they have name), then there is nothing you can do about it, but if they are just tame they can be butchered. Tame just means neither wild nor hostile.

The cows can perfectly well be buchered when tame, even when dead. There is no need to raw-edit. Make sure your cows are not pets, and make sure they do not have [CAN_LEARN] and [CAN_SPEAK].

Tame animals can be butchered, as mentioned before. Stupid question:

Do you have

A) a dwarf with the butchery labor enabled
B) a butcher's shop, and
C) a refuse stockpile to put corpses into and pull them from to the butcher's shop?

Edit: Just to clarify, I don't mean to be insulting or anything like that. I apologize if this is in fact, a stupid question. It's just that...well...sometimes we all forget the simple things. See the Facepalm thread for more info on that.

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.
probably figured an autobiography wouldn't be interesting
