Thank you very much!!!!

[Boltgun]

I tried removing the hook that captures it but it still crash.

I also tried this :

[IMPROVEMENT:100:target:COVERED:GLASS_GREEN]

Still crashes.

I'll try removing LUA_HOOK.

And that was right. Using a LUA_HOOK without a product crashes world gen. I added a dummy stone product to the reaction and now it completes.

For one reason or another, even without [ALCOHOL_DEPENDENT], the members of both the Fallens and the Risens who are marked as "first of their kind" depend on alcohol, despite not needing to drink, and it actually slows them down, although they are still quite fast.
I'm assuming this is hard-coded, but is there anything in the raws that could cause this?
They also don't have mountainhomes and live in cities, so it can't be that.

EDIT: Also, what do the three values in [SKILL_RUST_RATES] do? At least one, maybe more, of them must be what it says.
I'm making pentahydra.

[Teneb]

Where?

What do you mean "where"?

If you are just adding a metal, it won't appear outside the arena. You need to add a way to aquire it, either by creating an ore of that metal, or a reaction that produces it.

[FallenAngel]

Or you could add it to another ore, but I don't exactly recommend it.

[FallenAngel]

Why do none of these appear in the arena?

I can't find anything wrong with them. They're built for a 1/10th-size hydra with only five heads.

Your [OBJECT_ITEM] should be [OBJECT:ITEM]. It disables the entire file.

[FallenAngel]

THAT's the problem. Never caught it. Thanks.

Can anyone tell me where I can find a guide for creature modding? I am working on modding in clockwork robotics.

These are the body parts I have made, but I don't exactly know how to structure them into a creature, or do any of the body plans, tissues, etc. (Note, I have checked the wiki, and found their guide incomprehensible.)

Code: [Select]

[BODY:CONTROL_MODULE]
[BP:CONTROL_MODULE:control module:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][THOUGHT][INTERNAL][SMALL][CATEGORY:MODULE]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:200]

[BODY:PLATING]
[BP:PLATING:plating:STP][CONTYPE:BODY]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:30]

[BODY:CLOCKWORK]
[BP:CLOCKWORK:clockwork:STP][CONTYPE:UPPERBODY][CIRCULATION][INTERNAL][SMALL][CATEGORY:CLOCKWORK]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:100]

[BODY:SENSOR]
[BP:SENSOR:sensor:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][SIGHT][EMBEDDED][CATEGORY:SENSOR]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]

[BlackFlyme]

Unfortunately, I don't really know of any guides other than the wiki. I can attempt to explain some of it though.

By structure them into a creature, do you mean placing them into a creature? It's added through the [BODY] token, with the ID of the body parts being arguments of the tag. Just be sure that body parts are not out of order. By which I mean that body parts that rely on other parts are not listed before their 'anchor'. For example, having the eyes listed before the head. Otherwise the part will not be added to the creature.

Body plans can be used to add materials or tissues to a creature, place tissues in relation to one another, or place tissues onto body parts, which also decides layer order and tissue thickness. Adding tissues and materials are simple enough, though placing tissues on parts is a little more difficult.

Here is an example for putting two tissues on each your custom parts:

Code: [Select]

[BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:CLOCKWORK_LAYERS]
[BP_LAYERS:BY_CATEGORY:MODULE:ARG1:10:ARG2:25]
[BP_LAYERS:BY_CATEGORY:CLOCKWORK:ARG1:10:ARG2:25]
[BP_LAYERS:BY_CATEGORY:SENSOR:ARG1:10:ARG2:25]
ARG1, ARG2, etc. allow you to choose which tissue goes into the part when you are defining the tag within the creature. If you want, you can put the ID of a tissue instead of ARG#, to make the part always have that tissue when used, so long as the creature has that tissue within their definition.

Within the creature, the tag will look like [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:CLOCKWORK_LAYERS], and you can add tissues after the tag to apply them to the parts. For example, it may look like this:

Code: [Select]

[BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:CLOCKWORK_LAYERS:CLOCKWORK:CASING]
So the first tissue, named clockwork here, will take the place as the innermost tissue as ARG1, and the casing will be the outer tissue as ARG2.

Tissues are easier. Just look at the pre-existing ones and at the wiki's token page.

I'm experiencing some unexplained crashes in worldgen and legends mode, and I suspect, it has to do with an evil civ creature I've modded, one caste of which has a body transformation type curse interaction. It crashes fairly often (but unpredictably), when I try to view an entry for one of them in legends, and I think, that's what's also causing the worldgen crashes. Does that sort of thing not work, when it's a civilisation and the interaction happens in a war?

[Boltgun]

Can you prevent colors from being used on random creatures? I have special colors for my race and I ended with a werebeast with eyes glowing 'callipygian'.

I guess this is similar to preferences using dfhack stones.

Are you trying to make is a gas? If so you can try adding SYN_INHALED to the syndrome.

For some reason, despite a race I've modded in having the correct tags to have their weapons, seem to always be wrestlers, with only the Axeman skill as an option when starting an adventurer of said race, and the weapon that you're always given is a copper spear.
I'll need to dig out the entity raws.
