thanks putnam as always. hmm, anyway to make it be more descriptive? i have an idea of sorts but i doubt its possible lol

[Putnam]

Add more to the name.

[Sanure]

Add more to the name.

So something along the lines of naming the creature "dwarf. It depicts urist mcdwarf and his ascension to godhood. He is ascending into the heavens as his fellow dwarves cheer"

something like that?

[Putnam]

Yeah.

[Sanure]

Yeah.

That's wonderful then, my idea will work

[Torrasque666]

A quick question. Do ALL entity tag changes require a new world? Or just if you add something, not tweak something? Basically, I want to change how many of certain nobles I can have(manager, bookkeeper) in an already genned world.

Also, how would I go about changing the creature targeted by the "catsplosion" command in dfhack?

[Putnam]

All entity changes and new raws require regen.

[Torrasque666]

Even just a value change, not a tag change?

[Putnam]

For entities, yes. Most things about entities are put into the entity at worldgen and stay there.

I want to modify my dog's RAWS so that they spontaneously combust when attacking intruders. How do I make this happen?

[Putnam]

I want to modify my dog's RAWS so that they spontaneously combust

That's simpl

when attacking intruders.

Oh.

I would give them dragonfire, but no immunity to it. That's the simplest way.

[Octobomb]

Either, what Putnam said, or, you can use the liquid or gas attack with a substance with a high melting/boiling point and leave out immunity. There is a tag that allows the creature to die upon attacking, but I can't remember it, or if it's vermin specific. It's in the wiki somewhere, I'll go find it.

Aaand voila!

I'm starting a mod and but I'm a little confused about whether or not it should go in the Mod Releases area. It's nowhere near complete (just one creature and two ores right now) but I wanted to start a discussion on what I should add to it.

[Gentlefish]

All right, sweet.

Now, is it possible for my magdogs to emit magma mist as a gaseous emission or do I need to create a substance called "magma mist"?

[Putnam]

Just have them use granite or something in vapor form.
