Spoiler (click to show/hide)
This name bug you mentioned, are you seeing that in the arena? The arena defaults for the NAME when giving names to creatures. Based on your code, it should work just fine in adventure or fort mode. Since that is apparently not the whole creature, are there any [CASTE_NAME:whatever] that are not inside a caste? Such as:
Code: [Select]
...
[NAME:dark elf:dark elves:dark elven]
[CASTE_NAME:dark elf:dark elves:dark elven]
...
[CASTE:SPIDER_QUEEN]
[CASTE_NAME:spider queen:spider queens:spider queen]
?
Ohhh that makes sense, yeah that's the problem. Thanks!

And yeah I have the Caste_name thing for Dark Elves.

The queen's ratio is [POP_RATIO:10000], which is absurdly high. Though I don't know how it compares to the other castes.

Ah, that would it explain it. I'm building on RAWs from Masterwork (thanks Meph!) for those so.

I'm almost certain I know the answer to this, but what would happen if a caste had both [MALE] and [FEMALE]?

Fairly certain that a caste cannot have both.

Only one would take effect, though I'm not sure which one.

That's what I was thinking.
And a small bit of oddness I saw while testing in the arena is that severed slade body parts are red, not grey.
Checking my slade file shows that, yes, its colors are set to dark grey.

Lowest tag only, the other is overwritten. I tried hermaphrodites before, doesnt work.

Ps: Slade bodyparts covered in red blood are red? Or liquid inorganic blood, which equals red magma...

The race I tested it on have no blood.
In fact, nothing in the arena had any blood.

Are they made of pure slade? It may be showing the colour of another tissue layer instead.

There may also be some tags in the creature that are changing the colour.

If I were to make changes to a race's entity in the raws, and then copy that .txt from the raws into a save before loading the game, would the changes take effect or just break the save? I seem to recall some things like entity changes and creature changes require a regen to take effect, and I would prefer to be able to use the embark I found with the changes I made to some custom entities.

Any changes to an entity file require a world regen. So it would break your game.

I do know from experience that changing stuff within a creature without removing it entirely is safe, mostly since I had forgotten to add [INTELLIGENT] to a fortress mode creature.

So then is there a way to regen the world with the exact same parameters and everything? So any embark sites stay the same and stuff?

Go into legends mode for that world and push p. That'll spit out the world gen parameters, including seed. Then just copy that to data/init/world_gen.txt
