Thanks.

Another question, How do I give the tail an attack and not have the hands able to do it?

[ATTACK:TAILWHIP:BY_TOKEN:(tail token here)]

Change the standard attack:

   [ATTACK:PUNCH:BODYPART:BY_TYPE:GRASP] - reason this needs to change is your tail is GRASP and thus can PUNCH
to

[ATTACK:PUNCH:BODYPART:BY_CATEGORY:HAND]

then make a new attack

[ATTACK:TAIL_WHIP:BODYPART:BY_CATEGORY:TAIL]
or
[ATTACK:TAIL_WHIP:BODYPART:BY_TOKEN:(tail_id)]
the tail ID would'nt be TAIL_GRASP it would be what starts the acual bodypart
TAIL:tail:tails

Typos in the ATTACKS
you say CATAGORY

it is CATEGORY

so
[ATTACK:PUNCH:BODYPART:BY_CATAGORY:HAND]
 [ATTACK:TAIL_SLAP:BODYPART:BY_CATAGORY:TAIL]

should be
[ATTACK:PUNCH:BODYPART:BY_CATEGORY:HAND]
 [ATTACK:TAIL_SLAP:BODYPART:BY_CATEGORY:TAIL]


EDIT:
Remember to check your errorlog.txt located in the same place as DF.exe

I guess sometimes you need a second person to proofread these things. Thanks again!

 Is it possible to mod in multiple mouths for a single creature?

Yes, it's not that hard; in fact, I think that simply adding multiple MOUTH parts to one creature could work, but I've never tried it and it could result in horrible horrible things man was not meant to know.

Do it.

Not far off.
Okay.

The creature will simply have more then one mouth, vanilla DF already has a creature like this:
[CREATURE:GREEN_DEVOURER]
   [ARENA_RESTRICTED]
   [DESCRIPTION:A medium-sized monster walking on two clawed legs.  It has two mouths on the ends of a pair of tentacles.  It uses its mouths to digest its victims with acid and rows of razor-like teeth.]

You can have as many as whatever you want.

Why does everywhere I goto embark no body can trade with me. unless im in a tundra? Even a necro tower has No Trade?

EDIT:
THis is a completely Stipped version of DF, trying to make a TC. There are not very many creatures and I'm trying my hand and standarized materials.

EDIT2:
Just embarked and i get "The world has passed into the age of fairy tails"

EDIT3:
Whipped the slate clean And im going to try again, without fussing over standarized materials

So why is it that when I add [BABYSNATCHER] to dwarves, i have, on occasion, wound up with an entirely goblin civ?

as in, i check the civilizations screen after embark and it lists <my civ>, goblin?

You seem to be under the impression that we're playing some game other than dwarf fortress. It doesn't matter how powerful you make a creature, we will find a way to destroy it. God is dead, and Urist killed him.

I have a few questions, but both pertain to the same thing:

  • I am trying to make a "poison" of sorts extractable from a plant; is it even possible for me to have dwarves weaponize this?
  • What exactly is "material_name", and what are valid definitions for it? I'm trying to find something proper to define this poisonous liquid as.

1. Yes if you can get the extract into a barrel and if it's a contact poision you can dump the poison on the ground for a "walk through" trap or dump it on top of weapons and ammo to 'coat' them. But the poison will need [ENTERS_BLOOD] for that to work

2. Not sure what you mean by "material_name" what example are you looking at?

Dwarves could have kidnapped alot of goblin children then died out in worldgen, leaving their raised goblins to be dwarves. To me that sounds pretty badass, a bunch of brainwashed bearded goblins thinking they are dwarves, killing elves and laughing as they melt down the other goblins gear from the seiges and ambushes
