Why not? You can set evil_rains:0 in the advanced worldgen, and then add your own ones... regional interaction with weather_falling_mat. And you can add custom syndromes, colors and biomes to it...

[BlackFlyme]

Is it possible to edit weather - in particular, evil weather? Ideally for a given fortress/map/region?

I love the danger of Evil biomes right up until "It's raining XYZ blood!" ruins the location's visual appeal.

You can create new weather types, but you cannot edit the pre-existing ones as they are randomly generated upon world creation. It is also not possible to force new weather into a pre-existing world, though you can choose where they may appear using the tag

[OBJECT:INTERACTION]

This evil region will have an undead animation effect as well as material clouds and material rain.
The materials would need to be supplied as an inorganic object entry elsewhere (or as a creature material etc.).

Correct, of course you would need a new worldgen.

Can anyone help me fix this reaction:

All it does it produce infinite coke without burning bodies, I know that's because I mucked up the REAGENT part somehow but I still haven't got the hang of items and materials.

[Putnam]

Huh. Maybe lower the product amount and replace CORPSE with CORPSEPIECE?

[Grim Portent]

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

in the arena I can see that the syndrome is being applied, but they're not lashing out at their allies like they should

[Putnam]

I think CRAZED would work better

Also, define "isn't working".

[Grim Portent]

Thanks for the reaction Hugo. 

Now I can destroy all the dead caravan guards filling my refuse piles.

It doesnt work in the arena, because you set the alignement when you spawn the creature. It should work in adv/fort mode. CRAZED:OPPOSED_TO_LIFE would be best I think, otherwise you cant cast madness on undeads. If thats intended, no worries, leave it as it is.

[golemgunk]

sorry, I mean none of the tags are being added. when I cast the spell in the arena, the targets keep marching at me, and not attacking each other like I want them to.
[CRAZED] would probably work just as well, but I thought [OPPOSED_TO_LIFE] would work better on multiple targets.

[Putnam]

Neither work at all in the arena. (didn't see that bottom paragraph)

[Meph]

CRAZED does result in loyality cascades if used in fortress mode on citizens. opposed to life and crazed together are ok.

[Blastbeard]

I've made some creatures who would be fun to play as in adventure mode, but who really shouldn't be allowed to exist as a civilization. How do I ensure they won't set up sites and that I'll never see a non-player specimen of an entity?
Remove their ability to breed? Alter their site preferences to impossible requirements? Option C?
