Do you have the ANIMAL creature?

Are your tissues correctly pointing to the ANIMAL material instead of the LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT material?

The reason only eyes and nerve tissue are coming out is because you have EYE and NERVE both as LOCAL_CREATURE_MATs instead of CREATURE_MAT:ANIMAL.

Yes I do have the ANIMAL creature, and I realize that that is why I am getting the eyes and nerves. But I did not know that I needed to reference the CREATURE_MAT:ANIMAL tissues instead of LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT tissues. (I figured once they were called by CREATURE_MAT:ANIMAL they became local) Thanks for your help, glad to know it was just my problem and not an actual problem.

[Roses]

Hmm, is there an equivalent CREATURE_MAT token for tissues? I changed tissue declaration to this and then manually declared each tissue in the CREATURE:ANIMAL but all that did was throw up a whole bunch of errors like, upper body, layer 2: Tissue FAT was not found, using first tissue instead

I'm saying the tissue templates point to LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:X instead of CREATURE_MAT:ANIMAL:X and you need to change that if you want generic materials.

That error is because you're doing something horribly wrong. What you're doing is defining SKIN, then putting CREATURE_MAT:ANIMAL: in the middle, then SKIN_TEMPLATE for some reason.

[Roses]

Ah I see, I need to modify the actual tissue templates. For some reason I thought you meant the calls to the tissues in the body templates.

It works great now, thanks!

EDIT: Is there something hard coded about bones and names? I have gotten it to where all the skin, leather, eyes, spleen, kidney, etc... all are nameless (i.e. just 'prepared kidney' instead of 'prepared dog kidney') but bones still show with names. I am using the exact same system for both so I don't see any other reason why there would be this discrepancy.

Does anyone know what exactly makes all races except the dwarves unable to smith steel weapons and armour during world gen? Seeing as I mostly play adventure mode at the moment, it'd be nice to be able to loot some.

The reaction that is used to create steel is only used by dwarves because the dwarven entity (found in the entity_default.txt file) has this permission: [PERMITTED_REACTION:STEEL_MAKING]

Just add it under any other entity to allow them to make steel.

I am trying to give a dragons varoius breath weapons but when I try freezeing breath nothing seems to be working, I've tried giving the breath weapon/breath weapon mat various temperature flags in an attempt to make it's breath freeze/give frostbite but so far i've only managed to do is melt people(Acid breath will be easy).

Any hints? I've searched the forums for a bit and also tried copying from the Dragonic Civ but I can't seem to get it to work.

Here is the "ice breath" in question so far:

It means it's a "gas" which is of 2000 urist temperature. Note, it REALLY freezes stuff, be careful.

[Charey Wolf]

"[MELTING_POINT:20000000]

wut?"

I had seen on the wiki that the melting point is also the freezing point for that material so I tired setting it stupidly high to try and force it to freeze stuff. That was after I had tried most of the things that made sense.
 
Anyways I found out what the problem was, near the bottom of the default dragon creature is a set of tags the changes the melting/boiling points of all materials used by the dragon, removing that fixed the problem.

Having the melting point super high means that it will be a solid below that temperature. Liquid between that temperature and the boiling point, and gas above the boiling point.

[MAT_FIXED_TEMP:2000] <- this is what sets the actual temperature of the material. If you have this and your melting point it means it will be a very cold solid.

You forgot [CE_CAN_DO_INTERACTION:START:0:END:90000] above your CDI stuff.

[Mallos]

You forgot [CE_CAN_DO_INTERACTION:START:0:END:90000] above your CDI stuff.

It won't even let me target anything,too.
And it didn't change in any way.
At all.

[Putnam]

What is "it"? If you can't target, then you're kind of SOL unless you give us the part that actually matters for that: the CAN_DO_INTERACTION:CHAOS_TOUCH in the creature.
