Ah thanks. Not sure why I even put that, I have done reactions like that before....

Ah, it is still making magma, for some reason....

[Putnam]

You want just GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:NONE, not INORGANIC:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:NONE.

[Stirk]

A thousand thanks. I guess I used the aluminum making reaction and forgot to change that part. My magma production is now down 100%. Though now the material isn't showing up, and they are being made materialess....

*Cough*....I forgot to close one of the brackets....

[MCipher]

Not exactly a Modding question, But I want to know if this works,
The way I have a creature set up right now is that It can actively convert it's target into one of it's own through a syndrome, I am wondering if they can breed when the creature becomes turned, They automatically convert it into the opposite gender (caste), but can they breed?

[Deus Asmoth]

I'm not 100% about this, but I think they can't breed if transformed. You could try the [NIGHT_CREATURE_HUNTER] and [CONVERTED_SPOUSE] tags though.

Also, I've been wondering if there's any way to make a reaction that involves killing a creature, like in the butcher's shop or one of the moods.

Crud. Thanks for the info anyway.

I made a reaction that can brew a sterility draught beer, but I dont know.

[i2amroy]

The only way to make a reaction that kills a creature is to have it kill the one doing the reaction (and anyone nearby) by having a stone that boils at room temperature be created and that carries a deadly syndrome. Alternatively if there is a specific creature you have in mind, as opposed to just any generic creature, you could have the creature drop and extra butcher item and then just use the item in the reaction.

[MCipher]

Can I add verbs to the descriptor_shape files?
And, another question, Can you change what an engraving means, or is it hard coded?
For example, instead of:

Code: [Select]

Engraved on the wall is an exceptional engraving of dwarves by Urist McEngraver, the dwarves are traveling, this relates to the founding of AnvilPunch in 75
Could I do this?

Code: [Select]

Engraved on the wall is a masterwork engraving of dwarves by Urist McEngraver, the dwarves are building, this relates to the founding of AnvilPunch in 75

-Edit- I tried looking at the Forum, It didn't provide information about the [OBJECT:DESCRIPTOR_SHAPE] files, I do think my second question is pointless. I do believe it is hardcoded.

[Sorcerer]

how would i go about removing skill rust for specific skills only? does SKILL_RATES:SKILL:100:NONE:NONE:NONE work?

[Person]

I'm not quite sure how to remove a specific creature as a possible target from an interaction. If for example, I wanted to exclude cats from being targeted, how would I do that? I can't seem to find that anywhere but I'm sure I'm just searching the wrong terms.

I'm having some problems in my mod that I can't really explain.

The first is with tokens. For example, the Mechanist building requires the mechanics labour to build, I've double-checked the spelling and everything else, yet the Errorlog keeps insisting that it is wrong.

The other problem is that the game seems to completely ignore any tissue templates I add, then complain that they don't exist when a creature tries to use them.

Does anyone knows the cause or solution to these two problems?

...then post the errorlog, the bulding, and the file that contains your new tissue templates. We can't find the cause unless you actually give us the required info.

So I got the custom building for making my mechanical super weapons, and the required reactions to produce them.

Skipping over the reactions for a bit, I'm having issues with adding multiple weapons to one txt file, or something like that. I wanted to have all 3 planned weapons in one item_weapon file, to be more compact. Now the other two weapons aren't showing up in arena to be tested, only the chainsword. I assume I can have multiple weapons per file, since even the vanilla raws work like that. I'm positive I've updated all the required files, including the civ file, and added the reactions I've done so far (in a seperate "reactions_dorftech.txt" file) in case that was the problem.  Still the other two aren't showing up.

Added the required permitted reaction tags to entities, so I'm sure that can't be the problem.

Anyone know the problem?

[Stirk]

What does the top say? If you named the file "items_weapons" it is possible they would conflict.

Other then that, you should probably name them "DRILLINGSPEAR" and "FORCEAXE", just remove the underscores and see if that helps.

In other news, I finally figured out what causes weapons to stick, it was "Penetration" value next to the edge value thingy. So now I got my rockets to always blow up! Just wanted to brag.
