Just started modding, (though I've been playing since 2 years ago) so I've been wondering if there was a way to allow my adventurer to breathe dragonfire, regardless of race. i.e., a reaction. I've already managed to "summon" candy equipment, so I thought why not go all the way and get dragonfire too.

On a side note, is it possible to have a reaction that creates a left gauntlet and a right gauntlet, instead of merely unusable gauntlets? Thanks!

Do modded pet GCS breed?

I only added [COMMON_DOMESTIC] and [TRAINABLE] to them.

Unfortunatly unless you add the tags necessary for them to breed, they wont breed. If i get some time ill make some code for you to add to them, but im a bit busy ATM.


I'm in no rush, and that would be awesome of you. :D

If all you are looking for is breeding then a simple [CHILD:1] tacked on should suffice. If you want authentic breeding with eggs then you will need to add a little bit more.


Or I could just use [CHILD:1]. This isn't going to result in a GCSplosion is it?

 I have question about modding:
If I want to make some races dominant [I mean the biggest population and many towns, fortresses ect.] and make other races having population about 1000-3000, what I should do?
 I used MAX_STARTING_CIV_NUMBER, MAX_SITE_POP_NUMBER  and MAX_POP_NUMBER [I can't find START_GROUP_NUMBER], but results wasn't acceptable

If you plan on doing short world gens then those should let you tweak it significantly more then anything else. (START_GROUP_NUMBER is the right token, so you should be able to place it into the entity if it is missing it, elsewise just use a find function.)

With longer world gens though, more and more of which citizen is "dominant" gets placed under control of the individual world's RNG. Really the only useful ways of making one civilization more dominant then others is to make that entity be able to spawn in common biomes (such as plains) and then limit other entities to less common biomes (such as mountains).

I have a minor problem in the OldGenesis fork of Deon's Genesis. Help me, experienced modders.

Dorfs use "silty clay" and "clay loam" in reactions that are supposed to take in regular rock, not clay.
Example reaction:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
How do I alter clays (or reactions) so that one doesn't get "clay loam maul" and "clay loam rock bucket".

Here's a very minor one.
Where do I find the raw files for ice?

My first guess would be to add the '[' to the front of "WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY]. If that doesn't work what you will need to do is to go and add a reaction class to every worthless stone and then make the reaction require a boulder of that reaction class.

They are hardcoded. You can use ice boulders in reactions though, I believe the item/material code is BOULDER:NONE:WATER:NONE.

That explains why the Blizzard Men don't have ice in their structure...
Well, that also explains why cutting off an Ice Maidens hand gets me "Unknown Frozen Creature Substance."

Make a new material template called "ORE_TEMPLATE" and make all metal containing stones use that template and add [REACTION_CLASS:STONE_WEAPON]
or just add the reaction class to the STONE_TEMPLATE anyways.

And i2amroy answered the water/ice/snow/steam question (I know it was about ICE but WATER controls all 4 of those states)

No, I didn't want a reaction that takes in ores. In my example I had commented out the worthless_only because want hematite mauls along with granite mauls. Want one that takes in stone but not clay-containing soils.
Hmm.. Genesis stone template already has [REACTION_CLASS:CAN_GLAZE] so I'll try that.
Has anyone tried glazing metal furniture and metal weapons? Sounds like something Toady might not have tested, ashglazed billon bolts.

Also: does anyone have "piece of clothing back to thread" reactions that I could include? Excess socks, robes and cloaks to thread, then made into better weave and better clothes.

Has anyone done any science on these tokens?
ON_BREAK, CAVE_ADAPT, MILK_COUNTER, GROUNDED_ANIMAL_ANGER

They are counters for interactions, so I think I can make dwarve that are on break have a "dwarf1 is bored and looks around" "dwarf2 starts smoking a pipe while on break" (and actually adding a smoke effect) and so forth for ON_BREAK

I could make vampire dwarves that get positive effects the higher their CAVE_ADAPT counter is, so they are weakened if they go into the sun (no bonus) but get stronger and faster and so forth, while staying away from the surface.

MILK_COUNTER would allow a creature that has to be milked constantly, otherwise it goes berserk. It would add fun. Add a highly instable creature that gives high-value milk (or any other liquid, venom probably) that has to be attended. Imagine a sort of giant insect that builds up venom, and if it is not milked/venom taken out, it will start attacking people around it, just to release the build-up venom. That would make farming/herding this kind of animal a lot more interesting. (FUN)

GROUNDED_ANIMAL_ANGER is similar. Too many dogs on one spot, constantly clawing at each other? One goes berserk. Or starts a rabies infection. Teaches people not to stack 100 pets in one place.

I have a simple question: how do I make a custom weapon usable for woodcutting?
