Anyone have something  basic (link?) to help a guy know how to play a Goblin or Kobald in Adventure mode?
I changed added a tag that lets me play them but they start in a human city, some humans talk the others just kick ass.

If you want to start in  a goblin fortfress, you can't.

The ones that talk to you  haven't been wrongded by your goblin civ. there is no way to tell who has been wronged and who hasn't.

[Boltgun]

For now you only spawn in human settlements. If you wish to not have most of the citizen go after you, you have to remove the LOCAL_BANDITRY token from the goblin entity. BABYSNATCHER can stay and perhaps ITEM_THIEF too, but the later will cause your problem with caravans in fortress mode.

For kobolds you probably have to remove UTTERANCES from the creature file too.

Or, if you don't want to sacrifice the large part of the Goblins, you can change goblin's homes to TOWNS instead of dark fortresses. If you want, you can also change humans tags to something else. This way you will still be a goblin, get sent on quests by goblins, etc.

Other then that, you could enable outsider. An outsider goblin won't get attacked.

Is there any way to make a syndrome such that anyone affected by the syndrome is capable of reliably transmitting it to friendlies via physical contact?

Yep, give them the very same interaction that imbues the syndrome with a GREETING usage hint.

[Mura]

Thank you very much.

[Stirk]

Is there any way I can restrict which metals make which item, in so that the entity will still make both?

I am having troubles. First, the troops would show up with lead rockets, which ended up being useless. So I made it so you could get an explosive bar. Now troops come with explosive bullets, which way a lot less and end up still being able to do a lot of damage. And still show up with lead rockets more often then not. My goal is to make bullets out of lead, rockets out of explosives, and have neither made out of the wrong material.

[Putnam]

no

[Stirk]

no

Ah, I guess  I will have to balance some numbers. I guess I could make it weigh more, but that will make the unlucky people who carry explosives worse then the others....Ah, maybe I should just make explosives for your fort only?

Quick question: Do you have to create a new world just to test something out in the arena?  It's been a while since I last played DF, so I forgot a few things. 

[smakemupagus]

no, you'll see once you select the Arena game option, you can choose default raws

[QuiteFranklyMyMaN]

How would I create Vampire Bats and Were Dogs thst spread vampirism or a beast transformation condition to people they bite. Or a chance to when they bite.

[Putnam]

the example interactions describe them very well

[QuiteFranklyMyMaN]

so its possible eh? all I need to know
