You need castes.

How so? Caste specifications for immune creatures? The following doesn't work:

EDIT: This will work in that it causes the AI not to target Deep Ones, but if I control one in arena mode and cast the interaction manually, it always affects me. How can I fix that?
Code: [Select]
[IT_IMMUNE_CREATURE:DKP_DEEP_ONE:ALL]
There are already multiple castes of the creature:
DO_HYBRID
DO_STD
DO_CULTIST
DO_CLERIC
DO_PRIEST -- this is the one that casts the interaction
DO_GOD

With relation to my first question, I'd like the curse to turn creatures into a Deep One hybrid, then later, if the first syndrome was activated, into a standard Deep One (DO_STD). For the second question, all these need to be exempt from the curse.

I seem to remember something about AI interactions with the usage hint "attack" ignoring all self targeting. It's why you need to make a ricochet interaction for creatures that transform before they go into battle.

So it would appear that the curse still works on them, but the AI just doesn't do it. is there any way to simply make the deep ones untargetable by that interaction, so adventurers don't unwittingly change themselves?

I am no expert, but until a real response comes...  Download a civ(orcs, chaos, penguins, wgas) abd compare that civ/creature raw to yours.  Are they living in the right place?  has the correct intellect tags?  can reproduce?  does errlog say anything?  If you must use their raw as a base and swap your data...

Try copy+pasting the entire human entity and editing it to fit your purposes. For one, your civ doesn't have nobles of any kind.

You're missing:

And try changing the start biome to ANY_GRASSLAND, see if they spawn then. And you may want to alter your start group settings...you may get worlds flooded with this entity....
It happened to me with Satyrs, first they weren't spawning, now my worlds are almost spammed with them. Oh, and yeah, add pissy snobs nobles. Oh, and you might wanna change your currency after you get the entity working. If/when the economy kicks in, your gnomes will be VERY slow carrying around a thousand lead coins. But it's your entity, so do what you wish :P

Also, another issue MIGHT be the mountain gnomes creature files, not sure if their biome(mountain?) conflicts with the preferred biome in the entity. It could be trying to find a grassland on a mountain. But I'm not sure about that one.

Quick question.  I added tooth bite and mouth bite to my creature I made, the one in the avatar.  He is a ball, slow, flies, and strong.  I want a good alternative to the verb bites.  could be up to a small phrase, but I want to make sure to imply he is trying to hurt you with his mouth and he may or may not be latching on.

Does game consider handling or wearing item as a "contact"? I want to add hurting syndrome to weapon and healing/enhancement to armor. Will it work if I make "poisoned iron" metal with injected syndrome, and "blessed iron" with contact syndrome?

Sadly, no. "Contact" only occurs with contaminants, so it doesn't work that way. You can create a metal that boils when stuck in and give an inhaled syndrome to that, or you could make it out of a special weapon and then have that weapon be super-effective against everything, but you can't add a syndrome to it.
