A completely random curiosity, is it possible to set up a layer material to form with empty pockets? Hypothetically like say I wanted quartzite to have little mini caves inside of it, is that feasible?

Regarding my problem: Porting from 0.34.2 to 0.34.4 seemed to fix the problem with the speed (guess it was related to the vampire speed bugfix!), and the issue with the superhuman attributes is that the attribute ranges are all set so they don't vary at all, since this is meant to be a sort of singleton creature definition for use in adventure mode or just screwing around (so no variation necessary), so any stat increase through combat brings it up past all normal limits. I'll have to either add natural variation to a significant degree, or prevent them gaining stats at all, either of which is plausible.

Nope. You could make a mineral that evaporates at lower than room temperature and have that exist inside quartize in small clusters, but I'm not sure that melting/boiling points and such are actually handled for natural stone formations.

They are not, unfortunately.  If you did that, the only thing that would happen would be that the rocks would melt/evaporate the moment you mined them out.  That's how the coal-dust mod works, I believe.

To make magma-proof, set melting/boiling temperature higher than 12000. To make magma proof, set magma to be brewable.

Custom transformations got you down?
Here, have some ‼Science‼

Bah, there goes my hopes of cavern-like structures without actually being in the caverns layer. Oh well, thank you all :).

What's the best way to find out if a custom creature is spawning?

Once liquids are implemented properly, you could set up a mandatory test involving potential military dwarves swim through a sea of blood on their way through the testing.

Gen a world and export the world data. You get a txt file with all creatures and a number showing how many life in that world.

I've been trying EVERYTHING. And I still can't get the interactions to work, I tried to test em in arena mode but none of them appears in the acquired power list !
What could I have done wrong here ?

The error log is empty tho.

All of those interactions are material emissions and need [CDI:INTERACTION:MATERIAL_EMISSION] within each interaction.

It's easier to help if we've got RAWs, and what exactly do you mean show up? Are they supposed to show as wild animals or show up as a civilization.

Hm, have you considered murder?  It's either that or letting it go.

So, a bit back I modded the hammerer position to use swords instead of hammers, and I've got a vamp to test it on. However, my executioner canceled the execution due to not having the proper weapon, even though he had a sword on hand. Any clues why?(He's also my militia commander, if that helps)

Here's the raw:
Code: [Select]
[POSITION:EXECUTIONER]
[NAME:executioner:executioners]
[SITE]
[NUMBER:1]
[RESPONSIBILITY:EXECUTIONS]
[EXECUTION_SKILL:SWORD]
[APPOINTED_BY:EXPEDITION_LEADER]
[APPOINTED_BY:MAYOR]
[PRECEDENCE:150]
[DO_NOT_CULL]
[COLOR:0:0:1]
[DUTY_BOUND]

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.
